Energy conservation is a trending issue nowadays due to scarcity of electricity across the country. Energy conservation can be achieved by either using the energy available more efficiently or by reducing the amount of energy required. Reducing the amount of energy required in thermal power plant will reduce the capacity of plant, so it is recommended to go with former i.e., using energy more efficiently. Another reason why former is recommended is because it requires a lot of investment to add

... a new generation power plant. Various energy savings potential areas in thermal power plant have been stated in this article. Some measures have also been suggested to achieve it. Reduction in auxiliary power consumption by means of adopting these measures have been supported by reviewing related research articles. By implementing energy conservation in thermal power plant, losses are tried to be recovered which otherwise goes to waste.
