Quite often, the flue gas refers to the combustion exhaust gas produced at power plants.

Suppose that we levy a small tax on existing coal power plants in order to pay for the solar subsidy, and then gradually raise consumers electricity bills as more and more solar plants are phased in.

Even the most modern and advanced conventional coal fired power plants emit over 15 times more CO2 per unit of electricity than renewable energy systems, and more than twice the amount of efficient gas fired power stations.

China plans to double its hydropower capacity to over 120 GW by 2010 and to build more hydropower projects for at least another 20 years.

But, as Japan s reactors have shown, coastal nuclear power plants confront more serious dangers.

OMV also operates two gas fired power plants in Romania and Turkey.

And we could also produce power cables, to transfer enormous amounts of current between power stations.

Some Parties reported substantial hydroelectric power generation in their countries.

As we seek to operationalize our energy security plan, we envisage the importation of nuclear plants and other relevant civilian nuclear technology.

There is a clear trend towards the use of nuclear power in the developing world, particularly in Asia, as our energy needs increase.

By 2007, the city's hydro electric plants supplied over 70 percent of the city's electricity.

This is work going on down in lower Manhattan where they built some of the first electric power generating stations.

Taiwan has three nuclear power plants, and, like the plant at Fukushima, they directly face the ocean.

Coal was transported to a power generating plant in Edmonton, then later used for several power plants on the Wabamun Lake shore.

Hydro power is reliable, but most rivers in the developed world are already dammed.

Infrastructure , 46.1 percent of energy in Japan was produced from petroleum, 21.3 percent from coal, 21.4 percent from natural gas, 4.0 percent from nuclear power, and 3.3 percent from hydropower.
