With a standard coal powered power plant consuming 6,000 tons per day, it is evident why fuel makes the largest expense for this type of power plant. Some experts put it at about 75% of total expense! The good thing is that even the slightest reduction (as little as 1%) in heat rate can translate into significant annual savings.
