Thermal power cranes

In a thermal power plant, either coal or oil is used to heat a boiler to convert water into steam. The steam is used to turn a turbine, which is connected to a generator. When the turbine turns, electricity is generated and given as output by the generator, and is then supplied to consumers through high-voltage power lines. 

Some thermal plants also use natural gas to turn the turbine. The gas is ignited and burned and the heat creates pressure that turns the turbine.

Konecranes provides cranes for all kinds of thermal power plants, such as turbine hall cranes, boiler room cranes and hoists, and maintenance and workshop cranes and hoists.
