THE EFFECT OF EXOGENOUS FACTORS ON THERMAL POWER PLANT EFFICIENCY

This study focuses on the relationship between exogenous factors (that cannot be directly impacted by the actions of an economic agent) and combined heat and power (CHP) plant efficiency. As a measure of fuel utilization efficiency this paper proposes to use the Сoefficient of Fuel Utilization (CFU)...
