Question

A 500 MW power plant burns bituminous coal having a heating
value 28,400 kJ/kg. The overall plant efficiency is 36 percent. The plant operates at an annual capacity factor of 65 percent, meaning that the electrical energy generated in a year is 65 percent of the maximum possible. Calculate the annual quantity (mass) of coal burned at this power plant. Also calculate the annual quantities of ash and sulfur in the coal entering the plant.
