    Gas Turbine Engineering Handbook, Second Edition-3

    Uploaded by

    George Chedraoui
    Table 1-2 shows the economic and operational characteristics of different types of power plants including gas turbines, combined cycle plants, coal plants, nuclear plants, and diesel generators. Key metrics shown include capital cost per kW, heat rate in Btu/kWh, efficiency, variable and fixed operation and maintenance costs, availability, reliability, and time from planning to completion. Simple cycle gas turbines have the lowest capital cost but also the lowest efficiency, while nuclear plants have the highest capital cost but higher efficiency. Combined cycle plants generally have moderate capital costs and higher efficiencies than simple cycle plants.
