Status and Prospects of Heat-Power Engineering

  • Published:
Power Technology and Engineering Aims and scope

Abstract

An attempt to estimate the technical level of power plants firing fossil fuel is made. Tendencies of development and updating processes used at these plants are analyzed together with the existing problems and ways for their solution. The condition of Russian power plants is considered against the background of the state of the world heat-power engineering. Attention is devoted to long-term problems like reduction of CO2 emissions into the atmosphere and prediction of the structure of generating plants until 2050.
