As human culture and civilization has been built up with electricity, power plant facilities are things that we will always need. This is a sector that is continuously evolving, and the future of this industry is highly prosperous.
With the grandness of its size, the complexity of its technology, and its highly advanced theoretical and practical technologies, the power plant industry has been called “the flower of the machine industry.” Indeed, it greatly influences other industries through technology expansion and job creation effects. A Thermal Power Plant converts the chemical energy from fossil fuel, including coal, oil and LNG, into thermal energy though a burning process, and converts this into mechanical energy through a turbine. Then, generators that are connected to the axis of the turbine rotate, generating electrical energy. Currently, this is the most common method of power generation in Korea.
