Okokuqala nje, inganikeza inani elikhulu lamandla azosetshenziswa emikhakheni ehlukahlukene efana nokuphehla ugesi, ezokuthutha, nokukhiqizwa kwezimboni.Ngaphezu kwalokho, uphethiloli, igesi, nesitimu nakho kunezici zevelu yekhalori ephezulu kanye nokuminyana kwamandla aphezulu, futhi kungakhulula inani elikhulu lamandla ngesikhathi esifushane.Ukusebenza kahle kwayo kokushisa kungu-92 % noma ngaphezulu, ukuthuthukiswa kokusebenza kahle kwe-thermal kunganciphisa isikhathi sokusebenza futhi konge isikhathi nezindleko.Ngaphezu kwalokho, inqubo yokushiswa kukaphethiloli, igesi, nesitimu ihlanzekile uma kuqhathaniswa, ikhipha igesi yokukhipha umoya omncane, futhi inomthelela omncane endaweni ezungezile.
Nokho, isitimu segesi sikaphethiloli sinemikhawulo ethile.Okokuqala nje, izindleko zikaphethiloli zesitimu segesi sikaphethiloli ziphezulu kunalezo zamajeneretha kagesi.Kwezinye izindawo ezinezimo zomnotho ezimbi, ukusetshenziswa kwesitimu segesi sikaphethiloli kungase kwenyuse izindleko zamandla.Okwesibili, nakuba inqubo yokushiswa kwesitimu segesi yegesi yesitimu sikaphethiloli ihlanzekile uma kuqhathaniswa, izokhiqiza igesi yokukhipha ukungcola kanye nezinto ezingcolisayo, okuzoba nomthelela othile kukhwalithi yomoya.Ngaphezu kwalokho, kunezingozi ezithile zokuphepha endaweni yokugcina nokuthuthwa kukaphethiloli, igesi nesitimu.Kudingeka kuthathwe izinyathelo ezihambisanayo ukuze kuqinisekiswe ukuphepha.Futhi ayisebenzi kwezinye izimboni ezingenawo amalangabi avulekile.
Ukufingqa, i-fuel gas steam, njenge-generator ye-steam evamile, inezinzuzo eziningi kodwa futhi inemikhawulo ethile.Ngakho-ke, lapho sikhetha uphethiloli, igesi nesitimu, kudingeka sihlole izinzuzo nokulinganiselwa kwako bese sikhetha ngokwezidingo zethu.
