A furnace, steam turbine, generator, and other auxiliaries make up a steam power station. The boiler produces steam at a high temperature and pressure. The steam turbine is a machine that transforms steam's heat energy into mechanical energy. The mechanical energy is then converted into electric power by the generator.
Read More2012/5/30 · Alternatively, steam turbines generate electricity using high-pressure steam from a fired boiler before sending lower pressure steam to an industrial process or district heating system. Waste heat streams can be used to generate power in what is called bottoming cycle CHP—another term for

Read MoreThe thermal electricity supplied by ENGIE in numerous countries is based on a variety of technologies: Traditional thermal power plants: also called combustion power plants, they operate with energy produced by a steam boiler fueled by coal, natural gas, heating oil, as well as by biomass. The steam activates a turbine which, in turn, drives an
Read More2012/10/4 · Combined heat and power (CHP), also called cogeneration, is an efficient approach to generating electric power and useful thermal energy for heating or cooling from a single fuel source. Instead of purchasing electricity from the grid and producing heat in an on-site furnace or boiler, a CHP generator provides both energy services in one energy-efficient step.
