Coal use for power generation fell even more, by at least 4 %, as power plant efficiency improved and gas and biomass displaced coal in thermal power generation. (carbonbrief.org)
«We show that technological developments with increases in power plant efficiencies and changes in cooling system types would reduce the vulnerability to water constraints in most regions. (sciencedaily.com)
Increasing nuclear power plant efficiency from 1980 to today came from two areas: first, improvements to how operators re-fuel reactors, and keep plants and their workers safe; second, increasing the heat and electrical generation of plants through «up - rates.» (environmentalprogress.org)
