POWER GENERATING STATIONS LOCATION
POWER GENERATING STATIONS GENERAL DESCRIPTION / HISTORY
Many petrochemical plants operate their own electrical generating units. Others buy electricity from private electric companies. Electric generating plants must condense the steam they use to drive turbine engines. Often, the heat energy of the steam is lost. By working together, petrochemical plants and electric companies can use this lost heat energy. This system is called Co-Generation. Here are the major Co-Generation plants and electrical generating units in this area:
