answered-by-expert Expert Answer

Thermal power plants are power stations which convert heat energy into electric energy. Heat energy is obtained by burning coal.

The basic mechanism is that:

  1. Use the heat energy to boil water, producing steam with pressure
  2. Pressurised steam is used to spin the turbine to drive the electric generator
  3. Condense the used steam into water for reusing
  4. Repeat the cycle
