50 MW

[edit]

Hi,

it is a quite high amount, since I think most Diesel/Heavy oil or crude oil power stations are in Oceania and in the "rich" countries in Hospitals, Police stations, goverment districts etc... most of them are a lot smaller than 50 MW...

Is there at least a reference or so for "small" fuel oil power plants? I mean the article is small because of the 50 MW and wrong (I just say Russia and Surgut, they prefer to use natural gas, because of that they really have extreme reserves, untouched before the 1950's... when US had already 90 years of oil production and was the Saudi-Arabia of the World between ~1860 and ~1960...

So anyone got good links for small power stations, no matter where and how large, for some regions a diesel generator with for example 800 kW can be the best solution because running at 50% is most efficient and if it is only for a few hundred or thousand people we can stay below 1 MW I guess...in poor countries the use of 1000 Watt by more than 1000 people at once (which would be over 1 MW) is unlikely even in places with for example 2,400 population or so...

A greater Generator is better, already the size improves the efficiency, and (like at cars) running not on maximum leads to a "economic" fuel consumption... we see this on ships too, range reduces from 10,000 kilometers @ 20 knots speed and for example to only 4,000 kilometer with the same fuel amount and with 32 knots... so maximum speed is really a rare thing, if not secured something happens like it did to the 2010 build Jaguar XKR 5.0... a German Car Magazine did made "fuel demand at top speed), that Jaguar was listed from European Agency with something like 10-12 liters per 100 kilometer. The magazine drove the car at limit, there were stronger motorized versions of the same Jaguar XKR-Family, but this weakest engine took unbelievable a bit over 56 liters per 100 Kilometer! This is over 5-times as much as it should be and for our American Friends: "(56 liter) per (100 kilometer) = 4.20026042 Miles per gallon", well, 1 liter is not enough for 2 kilometer... the better motorized variants had also a 250km/h electrical limit, but because they were running on far less % of motor capacity (stronger motor) their consumption was not soooooo bad, maybe 30 liters instead of over 56....
