In that case Steam cycle efficiency also be improve, meaning that for a given electrical output there will be less consumption of fuel (coal) and less release of carbon dioxide.
Across the country, most of the power plants are based on sub-critical technology, which has a 38 per cent thermal efficiency. It means that 38 per cent of thermal energy gets converted into electrical energy. In the ultra-supercritical plant, this efficiency is 44 per cent.
