The operation and maintenance of large generating units is just as complex as their design and manufacture. Based on the many years' experience gained from the daily operation of the British Electricity Supply System, this work conveys the lessons learned in developing the new techniques and provide

โฆ Synopsis
The planning and design of new power stations can involve complex interaction
between the many engineering disciplines involved as well as environmental,
planning, economical, political and social pressures. This volume aims to
provide a logical review of the procedures involved in power station
development. The engineering aspects are outlined in detail, with examples,
showing the basis of the relationships involved together with "non-engineering"
factors so that the engineer can draw on the information provided for specific
projects. The civil engineering and building of power stations are also treated,
from the earliest planning and site selection studies, through estimating,
finance and quantity surveying, to final landscaping.
