Abstract
Power is one of the basic requirements for the economic development of a country. The performance of various activities is dependent on the availability of adequate and reliable power supply. Our country has made a rapid progress in the field of electricity generation. Thermal power plants are a major source of electricity supply in India. The conventional method of power generation and supply to the customer is wasteful in the sense that only about a one third of the primary energy fed into the power plant is actually made available to the user in the form of electricity .In conventional power plant, efficiency is only 35% and remaining 65% of energy is lost. The major source of loss in the conversion process is the heat rejected to the surrounding water or air due to the inherent constraints of the different thermodynamic cycles employed in power generation. Also further losses of around 10-15% are associated with the transmission and distribution of electricity in the electrical grid.
