Electricity
It can be easily transformed
It can be transported long distances
Electric power plants
Are facilities where primary or secondary energy is transformed in electricity
They rely on a turbine-alternator system.
Transport and distribution
Electricity cant be transformed so its transported to consuption centres
Convectional electric power plants
Nuclear power plant
High return on their energy production
Fossil fuel thermal power plants
This type of power plant performs better than those with only one cycle
Are divided into two types, gravity or pump.
Hydroelectric powerplant
Environmental impact
Environmental impact assessment
To find out what changes it would provoke in the enviroment
Inveronmental impacts
Extraction of natural resources
Fuel transport
Electricity generation
Final energy use
Waste treatment
There are to many forms to reduce the waste produced
Solution
Eficiency
Energy diversification
Energy saving
Non conventional electric power plants
They contaminated much less
Wind power plants
Wind farms are a clean form of generating electricity
Solar power plants
There are two types
Geothermal powerplants
May be used directly or indirectly depending of the aim
Biomass thermal power plants
These power plants produce energy from waste that has no other
potential uses.
Ocean power plants
These power plants are stdl in the experimental phase and their level of production is very low.
