Coal sourced locally
What are coal contracts that are typically audited annually and why?
Hunter, Huntington, Naughton, Dave Johnson, Wyodak, Jim Bridger.
Plants that locally source their coal typically do not have contracts that change often. The plants listed above do not locally source their coal and thus have more fluid contracts.
Explain nominal capacity of coal plants?
nominal capacity represents the rated capacity of a system or equipment under ideal conditions, providing a standardized measure of its capabilities and serving as a valuable reference point for engineering and decision-making processes.
