I assume you're asking about a natural gas fired plant. The gas is burned to heat water and produce steam. The steam is piped to a steam turbine causing the turbine to spin rapidly. As the steam does work on the turbine, its temperature drops. The turbine is connected by a shaft to an electrical generator. The spinning generator converts this mechanical energy into electrical energy by moving magnets through conducting wires. This produces an electric field which pushes electrons through the wires.

Electricity produced at a generating station is typically alternating current (AC) electricity. This type of electricity is used for transmitting power over long distances and is the form of electricity supplied to homes and businesses.
The biggest factor that impacts the electricity produced in a hydroelectric power station is the water flow or water volume available. The amount of water flowing through the turbines directly affects the power output generated. Other factors that can influence electricity production include the head height, turbine efficiency, and overall plant design.
The power station at Chernobyl produced energy through nuclear fission. The process involved splitting atoms of uranium in a controlled reaction to generate heat, which in turn produced steam to drive turbines and generate electricity.
Battersea Power Station ceased generating electricity in 1983.

The definition of the word 'cogeneration' means that electricity is produced from either an engine or power station and that the electricity is turned into useful heat.

The first power station was built in Craigside England in 1868. This power station was built by Lord Armstrong. This was not a public power station.
A power station
The power station at Chernobyl produced energy through nuclear fission. The process involved splitting atoms of uranium in a controlled reaction to generate heat, which in turn produced steam to drive turbines and generate electricity.
To produce electricity
No. Construction equipment used to build the station will burn fossil fuels and produce some pollution. When the station is complete it will produce pollution free electricity. The station will require some electric power from the grid to operate, and some of that electricity may be produced by coal powered plants which do produce pollution, but the geothermal power station will not produce pollution.
it depends on how big the power station is
Battersea Power Station ceased generating electricity in 1983.
