Power generation efficiency
Просмотров 5 тыс.7 лет назад
For power plants, generation efficiency is crucial in linking primary energy (and hence fuel costs) with electricity generation (and hence electricity revenues). It's also important to be clear about how efficiency relates to metrics such as capacity factor, for example. (From "Understanding Power Generation Markets", at Grey Cells Energy Online Academy)
