combined cycle power plants

A combined cycle power plant generates electricity efficiently by using two types of turbines working together. First, a gas turbine burns fuel to produce electricity, and the hot exhaust gases from this process are then used to produce steam. This steam powers a steam turbine, which generates additional electricity. By capturing and using the exhaust heat, combined cycle plants maximize energy output and efficiency, making them more effective than plants that only use one type of turbine. They are commonly used for reliable, large-scale electricity production with better fuel economy and lower emissions.
