Hi everyone,

<<<Large coal burning stations have an efficiency of 32-38%
not including distribution losses. Cogeneration plants
are typically more than 80% efficiant.>>>

What are the reasons for the huge differences in efficiencies, and what % decrease in efficiency can be attributed to each of those reasons? Are there solutions to improve the efficiencies?
