They produce steam at high temperature and pressure which is fed into a steam turbine/generator set. The steam can be raised by fossil fuel (coal, oil, gas) or by nuclear energy.
In Coal or oil-fired power stations, and in most gas-fired power stations, the burning fuel heats water in a boiler. this produces steam. the steam drives a turbine that turns an electricity generator. Coal, oil and gas are fossil fuels, which are fossil fuels obtained from long-dead biological material.
Various fuels such as coal, natural gas, oil, and biomass are burned in power plants to generate electricity. The heat produced from burning these fuels is used to create steam, which then drives turbines to generate electricity.
At a power station, heat is typically produced by burning fossil fuels like coal, oil, or natural gas, or by splitting atoms in a nuclear reactor. This heat is used to generate steam, which drives turbines connected to electricity generators, producing electricity. The efficiency of this process is crucial in maximizing the amount of electricity generated per unit of heat input.
In a power station, commonly burned fuels include coal, natural gas, and oil. These fuels are used to heat water and create steam, which drives turbines to generate electricity.
Fossil fuels are burned in a power station to produce heat, which is used to convert water into steam. The steam then drives a turbine connected to a generator, producing electricity. This process is known as thermal power generation and is a common method used to generate electricity from fossil fuels.
Burning fossil fuels releases stored chemical energy in the form of heat. This heat is used to generate steam, which then drives turbines to produce electricity. The carbon and hydrogen in fossil fuels combine with oxygen to form carbon dioxide and water, releasing energy in the process.
well, you have renewable energy such as wind power, wave power etc... all this generates electricity without burning fossil fuels
Burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) is used to boil water. The steam is used to spin electricity turbines and this generates electricity.
yeah you can make electricity by using wind, solar (sun) water (waves)
what percentage of electricity produced in the UK comes from burning fossil fuels ?
Well, fossil fuels don't give the electricity they are part of making it though. By burning fossil fuels it creates steam which turns a turbine that generates electricity.
Yes, fossil fuels can and do create electricity. Most electricity round the world today is generated by burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas).

fossil fuels
They are used to run most of the power plantsthat generate electricity.
No. We can get electricity from wind power, hydropower, solar cells, and from burning renewable fuels.
Sure, much of the world's electricity is obtained by burning fossil fuels.
Fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas), mostly, or electricity generated by burning them.
