Abstract: Modern society requires a
variety of goods and services which require energy as
the diversity of range of services increases so is the
demand for energy. Electrical energy because of its
versatility takes major share. Coal has to be
transported to thermal stations located away from
coalfields by railways and power has to be transmitted
over arge distances from pithead stations. These
problems can be eliminated or reduced by converting coal
into SNG (synthetic natural gas) at pithead and
transporting the gas by pipe-grid to all thermal
stations. The efficiency of power station can be
increased by adopting combined cycle. Eco-friendly MHD
(Thermal Cell) generator is now suggested for
development as a topping addition for combined cycle to
further improve the efficiency.
