Abstract

Economic development is one of the fundamental aspects in the policies of a country and energy is the main and necessary factor for such a development in any society. The increasing population growth, dependence on the energy, and as a result, an increase in the consumption of fossil fuels all cause the environmental problems to increase. Therefore, the energy sector has an extraordinary share in different environmental pollutions. Many studies in the world have focused on the serious effects of climate change and the importance of the new technologies for decreasing greenhouse gases (SF6, PFCs, HFCs, CH4, NOx, and CO2) produced by the energy sector including the power plants. One way to reduce the environmental impacts of the power plants is the improvement of their EFFICIENCY. In this paper which aims at increasing the EFFICIENCY of power plants and decreasing their environmental and economic effects, the EFFICIENCY of steam power plants, combine cycle power plants, and gas power plants is compared. Moreover, the SOCIAL COSTS of the pollutants and their effects on humans and the environment is studied. The average EFFICIENCY of the plants is affected by such factors as the operation length of the power plant, type and quality of its fuel, situation of exploitation, the relation between product load and nominal load, and the amount of plant egression from the circuit. The results show that reduction in the amount of pollutants and SOCIAL COSTS occurred mostly in steam power plants. Therefore, it is suggested that the priority for the implementation of EFFICIENCY improvement policies be given to steam power plants.
