Electricity Supply System • Thermal power generation of CIS on 2009 was 18285 GWh (44% of total generation). • Linnerud et al. (2009), based on USA studies, shows that an increase of 1°C reduces the output power of a nuclear plant in 0.8%, and 0,6% in coal and gas power plants. • Davcock et al (2004) indicates that power output decreases between 3% toi 4% in thermal plants when the temperature rises 5.5°C. • Scarcity of water will also impose constratints to thermal power NTUA, School of Electrical and Computer Engineering Dr. Luis Vargas Athens. September 20th , 2012
Electricity Supply System • In 2009 total CIS thermal generation was 18285 GWh (43.67% of total). • By considering Linnerud and Davcock estimations, the decrease of generated power for 2009 caused by an increase of 1 o C would be 109.71 GWh and 117.024 GWh, respectively. • Increase of 3.2°C by the end of century reduces the output of thermal power in 350 GWh (1.9% aprox.)
