Truly they are one of the marvels of engineering the gas turbines were doing what they were made for generating electricity.

They have more capacity to generate electricity than Solar farms they could do way more in that department.

A gas-fired power plant, sometimes referred to as gas-fired power station or natural gas power plant, is a thermal power station that burns natural gas to generate electricity. Gas-fired power plants generate almost a quarter of world electricity and are significant sources of greenhouse gas emissions. However, they can provide seasonal, dispatchable energy generation to compensate for variable renewable energy deficits, where hydropower or interconnectors are not available.

A gas turbine, also called a combustion turbine, is a type of continuous flow internal combustion engine.The main parts common to all gas turbine engines form the power-producing part (known as the gas generator or core) and are, in the direction of flow:

1. Arotating gas compressor

2.
