Most power plants are less than 50% efficient.
- eigenspace 9mo agoYeah, 70% is more or less a best-case scenario (unless you count systems for recovering and distributing waste heat, then it goes higher)
- pfdietz 9mo agoA gas-fired CC plant built today will have a LHV efficiency > 60%.
- adrianN 9mo agoThat is true, but I believe that most power plants are not modern combined cycle gas plants.
