It was the life-blood of the industrial revolution – providing the fuel for steam engines and then generating much of the country's electricity. By the 1960s, nearly 90% of the UK's electricity relied upon coal. Now, for the first time, the UK will not use any coal to generate electricity.
Energy storage technologies offer a viable solution to provide better flexibility against load fluctuations and reduce the carbon footprint of coal-fired power plants by minimizing exergy losses, thereby achieving better energy efficiency.
The primary issue with coal is that coal-based power plants are the source of almost 30% of the total world’s CO 2 emissions . Thus, to move towards a net zero carbon scenario in the near future, it is necessary to mitigate the carbon footprint of coal-fired power plants.
Retrofitting large coal plants is still demanding in terms of absolute capital, lack of previous experience and uncertain business. This work proposes smaller coal-fired combined heat and power plants with 50 MWe output as a suitable prospective site for conversion to CB instead of large power plants.
It's an unassuming place for a major era of British history to come to an end. Surrounded by farmland drenched by recent rains and trees with leaves starting to turn ahead of the autumn – all within earshot of the thundering traffic from the M1 motorway – the UK's last coal-fired power station is shutting down for good.
In summary, this reference plant takes 186,882 kg/hr of coal as input to produce a net power of 550 MW at full load with a net plant efficiency of 39% based on the higher heating value (HHV) of coal as mentioned in the NETL report. A comparison of the results obtained from our model and the NETL report is provided in Table 1.
