A recently proposed wave energy power system off the south western coast of Africa estimated their construction cost to be $2.9-million per MW.
The most cost effective wave energy generation plants are operating around 7.5 cents per kWh, as opposed to coal fired power stations at 2.6 cents/kWh.
On websites that I have seen you wave energy can cost 4 cents per kwh, which is pretty cheap and is good for the enviroment, it is cheap because in Microsoft Excel I analizyed the cost for both of them. (The other one is most common, which is fossil fuel) You can see the difference in money... :) You can see the difference in money wise...

it would cost at least 1million pounds to build
Wave power can cost up to $100, but once you have paid for it it is free forever.
500 watz
Around $20,000
None. But it does convert 5 watts of electrical power (energy per unit time) into 5 watts of [light + thermal] power.
The energy produced is related to the size of the power plant, not the amount of gas it uses. The question you really want answered is "How much gas does it take to produce a kilowatt of electricity?"
It is the amount in Rs. or Roller which is paid for how much unit of electrical energy consumed. the unit of electrical energy is KW h (kilowatt hour).
Sure they can, but it doesn't seem very practical, since probably there would not be much average power (energy per time unit) to be gained.
KW is the unit power KWh is the unit of electrical energy KW or Watt defines the rating or power of a electrical equipment. For ex: motors, heaters etc. KWh is a measurement that how much energy is been consumed by the electrical equipments. Generally, operating 1KW rated equipment for an hour measures one KWh. Energy meters are the instruments for this purpose
None. But it does convert 5 watts of electrical power (energy per unit time) into 5 watts of [light + thermal] power.
It's because it need only 20% of the electrical power to produce as much light, therefore less energy is wasted.
A lamp doesn't produce electrical energy; it utilises it. The power-rating of the lamp will tell you the rate at which that lamp uses expends energy at its rated voltage. For example, a 60-W lamp will expend energy at 60 joules per second.
This is a question of how much electrical energy you want to produce, against the cost of the equipment to produce it.
The latest PWR designs can produce 1600MW electrical from one reactor.
power rating is the rate of moving energy their relationship in the amount of heat it produce it divided by time to move that much energy
No, much less, about 20 percent at present
73 % is electrical energy
The energy produced is related to the size of the power plant, not the amount of gas it uses. The question you really want answered is "How much gas does it take to produce a kilowatt of electricity?"
2,598,000,000,000 kWh a year, that was estimated in 2008.
how much electrical power can be provided by coal
it produces 3.826*10 to the 26 power in one second
