 THERMAL POWER PLANT

It is produced by heat engine

This is sometimes called as steam power

plant.

It works according to second law of

thermodynamics.

Heat energy->mechanical energy.

SOLAR POWER PLANT

Solar energy->electrical energy.

 A solar photovoltaic power plant uses

photovoltaic cells to convert sunlight into

direct current electricity using the

photoelectric effect.

 This type of plant does not use rotatingmachines for energy conversion.

  WIND ENERGY

Wind turbines can be used to generate electricity in

areas with strong, steady winds, sometimes

offshore. Many different designs have been used in

the past, but almost all modern turbines being

produced today use a three-bladed, upwind design

Grid-connected wind turbines now being built are

much larger than the units installed during the

1970s, and so produce power more cheaply andreliably than earlier models.
