Humberto Villa · Answer 1

Some power plants use the unused heat or combustion gases from one turbine, such as a gas turbine, to generate more electricity in another turbine, such as a steam turbine.

Explanation:

This system of two separate generators using a single fuel source is called a combined cycle.

Martha Petersen · Answer 2

1. Rotation of turbine.

2. Applying generator to covert mechanical energy to electrical energy.

Explanation:

Rotation of turbine is common in all power plants and then applying generator to convert the mechanical energy of turbine to electrical energy. These two steps are common in all type of power plants.

The end processes such as waste disposal or filtration are different in different types of power plants. Like nuclear power plants waste management is different from the coal based power plant.

Cooling of water at the end is not practiced in hydro power plant.
