The coal-fired electricity sector, known for its high carbon emissions (Rogelj et al., 2018), accounts for 37 % of China''s total emissions (China Electric Power Yearbook, 2022)
As for coal-fired power plants, pulverized coal (PC) plants consist of coal-fired boilers, steam turbines, and generators—the traditional power plant design (He et al., 2017).
In the process of phasing down coal power, it is imperative to categorise coal-fired power plants of varying sizes 3, as they assume distinct roles in terms of electricity
Throughout the world, coal is responsible for generating approximately 38% of power. Coal ash, a waste product, generated from the combustion of coal, consists of fly ash, bottom ash, boiler
It can be expressed as [31]: (11) η c = W c + E ̇ c E ̇ coal, c × 100 % (12) η d = W d E ̇ coal, d + E ̇ d × 100 % (13) η ep = W c + E ̇ c · τ c + W d · τ d E ̇ coal, c · τ c + E ̇ coal, d +
According to Ref. [18]; coal-fired power plants with installed capacity higher than 300 MW have enough operational lifetime for retrofitting and installing CCS facilities with
A similar concept was studied by the authors, in which surplus electricity is stored from a nuclear power plant in order to allow a coal-fired power plant to sell electricity in
For an isolated energy community, the power supply from coal-fired power plant is usually fixed, while the consuming load may vary with times, as Fig. 15 shows, the power
1. Introduction. As the rapid increase of renewable energy has adversely affected the stability and cost of the power system [1, 2], coal-fired power plants (or CPPs) are
In this paper we examine the feasibility and costs of recovering CO2 from the flue gases for a conventional pulverized coal-fired power boiler using the concept of frosting and defrosting

The large expansion of coal-fired power plants in recent years has led to substantially (Table 2) in this model, pumped hydro storage is cost-competitive with battery
Air pollutant modelling dispersion caused by lignite coal-fuelled power plants in Western Balkans countries in Europe a PM 2.5 annual mean; b SO 2 annual mean (adapted by Casey ()).
An ultra-supercritical coal-fired power plant (USC) is the host unit for the CCS to enhance the efficiency of coal-fired power plants integrated with the carbon capture system.
Chapters 3 and 4 cover the economics and costing of coal power generation including capital costs, operation and maintenance (O&M) costs, the levelised cost of electricity (LCOE), the parameters that influence these costs as well as a cost analysis section which includes CCS costing. What the future holds for coal is discussed in Chapter 5.
We used the LCOE model to obtain the levelized cost of electricity generation for coal-fired power plants with post-combustion capture by calculating the ratio of the discounted value of the total cost expense of a 600-MW coal project from the year of CC retrofitting to its economic time value of the energy output within the retrofitting.
With the recent rising coal price, it brings heavy cost burden to coal power plants. CC retrofit will increase the energy consumption of coal power units, and high coal price will further increase their cost burden. However, improving the utilization hours of the retrofitted units can effectively relieve the economic pressure of coal power plants.
Energy storage technologies offer a viable solution to provide better flexibility against load fluctuations and reduce the carbon footprint of coal-fired power plants by minimizing exergy losses, thereby achieving better energy efficiency.
In summary, this reference plant takes 186,882 kg/hr of coal as input to produce a net power of 550 MW at full load with a net plant efficiency of 39% based on the higher heating value (HHV) of coal as mentioned in the NETL report. A comparison of the results obtained from our model and the NETL report is provided in Table 1.
The present study investigates the impact of three key factors on the LCOE for different power generation units. Firstly, coal price represents the primary cost driver of power generation, constituting more than 50% of the total cost when multiplied by the amount of coal consumed by the enterprise.
