2. What are the possible renewable power plants available in our country that
needs to be strengthened and be developed.
 Solar
During summer season the amount of sunlight in the Philippines is very strong, enough to
operate solar power plants

 Hydro
The Philippines was surrounded and composed of bodies of water that is why it is advisable
to create more hydroelectric power plants

 Geothermal
The Philippines is in an area known as the PACIFIC RING OF FIRE. This is an area around the
edges of the Pacific Ocean where many volcanoes are located.

 Wind
Some part of the country has strong winds specially in part near the ocean.

3. From the different renewable power plant, kindly discussed one plant and the
different parts and functions of this plant, and how it operates.

 Geothermal Power Plant

Geothermal power plants are used in order to generate electricity by the use of geothermal

energy (the Earth's internal thermal energy). They essentially work the same as
a coal or nuclear power plant, the main difference being the heat source. With geothermal, the
Earth's heat replaces the boiler of a coal plant or the reactor of a nuclear plant.[2] Click here to
learn how this heat is produced.

Hot water or steam is extracted from the Earth through a series of wells and feeds the power
plant. In most geothermal plants the water pulled up from the ground is returned back to the
subsurface. The rate of water used is often larger than the rate of water returned, so make-up
water supplies are generally needed.
Parts
Geothermal Vents

The geothermal vent is the first component of a geothermal plant. A geothermal vent is a
deep well drilled into the Earth that the power plant uses to tap into the Earth’s heat. A
geothermal plant may have two goals for its vent; most current geothermal plants draw
superheated, pressurized water upward; these are called flash steam plants. Geothermal
plants may also simply dig far enough underground, as many as three kilometers, to reach a
point where the Earth is warm enough to boil water, these are called dry steam vents.

Steam Generator

Another key component of a geothermal plant is the steam production unit, which can take
multiple forms. In a flash steam vent, superheated pressurized water is drawn from its place
underground to low-pressure tanks. The pressure of the Earth kept the water in liquid form
despite its high temperature, and by removing that pressure the hot water instantly turns to
steam, hence the term flash steam. In a dry steam plant, the plant technicians pump water to
the bottom of the vent where the Earth’s heat boils the water and turns it into steam.

Turbine

Regardless of the plant type, both flash steam and dry steam plants pump the steam from the
geothermal vent to a large turbine. The steam passes this turbine, turning it in the process.
This turbine is attached to an electric generator, and as the turbine turns the generator turns
the mechanical energy into electric energy, thus converting the heat from the Earth into
usable electricity.

Condenser

After the steam passes through the turbine, it continues to a condenser chamber. This
chamber condenses the steam back into liquid water by cooling it. The excess heat lost as the
steam turns to liquid water may be used for other applications, such as heating or
greenhouse farming. The cooled liquid water is then typically pumped back into the ground to
either restart the boiling process for dry steam or to replenish the natural heated aquifer for
flash steam plants.
