coal-fired power station | hiilivoimalaitos |
combined cycle-power station This type of plant is flexible in response and can be built in the 100-600 MW capacity range. It produces electrical power from both a gas turbine (ca. 1300°C gas inlet temperature), fuelled by natural gas or oil plus a steam turbine supplied with the steam generated by the 500°C exhaust gases from the gas turbine. The thermal efficiency of these stations is ca. 50 per cent compared with a maximum of 40 per cent from steam turbine coal fired power stations. This type of plant can be built in two years compared with six years for a coal-fired station and 10-15 years for nuclear | kombilaitos |
combined cycle-power station | kombilaitos |
combined heat and power station | sähkön ja lämmön yhteistuotantolaitos |
combined-cycle power station | kombilaitos |
heat and power station Power station which produces both electricity and hot water for the local population. A CHP (Combined Heat and Power Station) plant may operate on almost any fuel, including refuse | lämpö- ja voimalaitos |
heat and power station | lämpö- ja voimalaitos |
power station A stationary plant containing apparatus for large-scale conversion of some form of energy (such as hydraulic, steam, chemical, or nuclear energy) into electrical energy | voimala |
power station | "voimalaitos, voimala" |
power station derating | voimalaitoksen alentaminen luokituksessa |
power station derating The process by which a power plant is finally taken out of operation | voimalaitoksen alentaminen luokituksessa |
run-of-river hydro-electric power station | jokivoimalaitos |
small power station | pieni voimala |
small power station Power station of small size for the generation of energy at local level | pieni voimala |
solar power station | "aurinkovoimala, aurinkovoimalaitos" |
solar power station Plant where energy is generated using radiation from the sun | aurinkovoimalaitos |
solar power station Plant where energy is generated using radiation from the sun | aurinkovoimala |
tidal power station Power station where the generation of power is provided by the ebb and flow of the tides. The principle is that water collected at high tide behind a barrage is released at low tide to turn a turbine that, in turn, drives a generator | vuorovesivoimalaitos |
waste-fed power station | jätekäyttöinen voimalaitos |
waste-fed power station Power station that functions with refuse-derived fuel | jätekäyttöinen voimalaitos |
wind power station Power station which uses wind to drive a turbine which creates electricity | tuulivoimalaitos |
