Abundance
Coal is the worlds most abundant fossil fuel
Sufficient reserves for the next 250 years
Efficiency
Larger power plants are more efficient
38% of the chemical energy is converted to energy
Mining destruction.
THE PROCESS
1. HEAT IS CREATED
After doing its work in the turbine, the steam is drawn into a
condenser, a large chamber in the basement of the power
plant. In this important step, millions of gallons of cool water
from a nearby source (such as a river or lake) are pumped
through a network of tubes running through the condenser.
The cool water in the tubes converts the steam back into
water that can be used over and over again in the plant.
