Keep reading this artcile to know the complete List of Important Power Plants in India PDF 2022 to excel in general awareness section.

Introduction to Thermal Power Plants

• Thermal power station is a power plant in which heat energy is converted to electric power. In most of the places in the world, the turbine is steam-driven. In such power stations, water is heated which then turns into steam and spins a steam turbine. This rotational moment in future converted into energy which drives an electrical generator.
• Thermal power is the largest source of power in India. There are different types of Thermal power plants based on the fuel used to generate the steam such as coal, gas, and Diesel. About 6% of electricity consumed in India is generated by thermal power plants.
• Thermal power plants mainly require a large amount of water as a coolant, so usually all power plants are situated near the rivers.
• The main factors which are responsible for the location of thermal power stations are proximity to a water supply for coolants, proximity to raw materials, major cities for efficient power transmissions and better connectivity depending upon power consumption.
