A thermal power plant generates electricity by converting heat energy into electrical energy. This process typically involves burning fossil fuels like coal, natural gas, or oil to produce steam. The steam drives a turbine connected to a generator, which produces electricity. In addition to fossil fuels, some thermal power plants use nuclear energy to heat water and create steam. These plants are essential for meeting energy demands, but they also raise concerns about greenhouse gas emissions and environmental impact. Efforts are ongoing to improve efficiency and reduce the ecological footprint of thermal power generation.
