It will be depend on what fossil fuel is in concern.

For a combine cycle power plant of around 80% capacity, cost of power per fuel is as followed for 2010. Price not include tax and transmission cost.

Natural gas = 7-10 C/kWh

Coal = 10 - 14 C/kWh

Diesel = 14 - 20 C/kWh

The Diesel priced was estimated by approximation the relative cost of Diesel and Natural gas cost so it may not be accurate.

How much does a 2 kilowatt convector heater cost an hour?

To calculate the cost of running a 2 kilowatt convector heater per hour, you need to know the electricity rate charged by your utility company. Let's assume the rate is $0.12 per kilowatt-hour. In this case, running a 2 kilowatt convector heater for an hour would cost $0.24 ($0.12 x 2).


Calculate per unit cost in terms of kilowatt hour for electricity?

To calculate the per unit cost of electricity in terms of kilowatt-hour, divide the total cost of electricity by the total number of kilowatt-hours consumed during a specific time period. This will give you the cost per kilowatt-hour.


If we are paying 10.74 per amp what are we paying per kilowatt hour?

To find the cost per kilowatt hour, you need to know the voltage at which the current is flowing. If the voltage is 120V, then 1 amp is equivalent to 0.12 kilowatts. To find the cost per kilowatt hour, multiply the cost per amp by 0.12.


How many fission events are needed to produce energy for 1 kilowatt-hour that is the energy it takes it run your blow dryer for an hour?

1 MeV = 1.602×10-13 J (1 J = 1 watt.sec) Energy/fission ~ 200 Mev Energy per fission in kw.hour ~ 200 (Mev) x 1.602 x 10-13 (watt.sec/Mev) x 1/1000 (kw/w) x 3600 (s/hour) ~ 11.52 x 10 -11 kw.hour Then 1 kilowatt.hour = 1/ 11.52 x 10 -11 fissions = 8.681 x 10 9 fissions So, 1 kilowatt hour requires around 8.681 x 10 9 nuclear fission events

Why is gas turbine power more expensive per kilowatt-hour than nuclear power?

Gas turbine power is more expensive per kilowatt-hour than nuclear power due to the higher fuel costs associated with natural gas compared to nuclear fuel (uranium). Nuclear power plants also have lower operating and maintenance costs and have a longer operational life, resulting in lower overall costs per kilowatt-hour. Additionally, nuclear power plants typically benefit from government subsidies and incentives that help lower the cost of production.
