-Power Demands in South Carolina-History of Electric Generators-Modern Day Power Generation-Future of Turbine Generators

Page 3: Turbine Generators and You

South Carolina demands 13.4 Terawatt hours of power annually. This power is provided by turbine generators. The means in which is turbine generator is operated depends on the prime mover. Steam through burning coal, natural gas, or nuclear power makes up the majority of this power. Hyrdo and wind combine for less than 10% of the power South Carolina consumes.
