Boiler - Turbine - Generator.
4. The energy changes at
each stage in a power station that uses fossil fuels to produce electricity
are:
Boiler
Turbine
Generator
Chemical to heat
Heat to Kinetic
Kinetic to electrical
Heat
wasted
Heat

5. The efficiency of a
power station can be increased by changing more energy from the fuel into
electricity. This means reducing the amount of energy wasted (heat).
