Screenshot of a boiler control system
Screenshot of a boiler control system used at Fawley power station, Hampshire, UK. Each boiler (as seen here) is powered by heavy fuel oil, supplying steam to a turbine that powers an associated 500 megawatt (MW) generator. The power station was built in the 1960s and began operation as a 2000 megawatt (MW) power station with four 500 MW generating units. Two closed in the 1990s and the station now has the ability to produce 1000 MW of power, which is enough to meet the needs of around 1 million people

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a screenshot of a boiler control system used at the iconic Fawley power station in Hampshire, UK. The image reveals the intricate workings of this engineering marvel that has been supplying electricity to millions since the 1960s. Each boiler, powered by heavy fuel oil, generates steam which drives a turbine connected to an impressive 500 megawatt (MW) generator. Originally built as a colossal 2000 MW power station with four generating units, Fawley underwent changes over time and now possesses the capacity to produce 1000 MW of power. This substantial output is sufficient to meet the energy needs of approximately one million people in its vicinity. As concerns about global warming and climate change continue to grow, it is crucial for us to understand how fossil fuel-powered stations like Fawley contribute to carbon emissions and our overall carbon footprint. This photograph offers us a glimpse into the control system responsible for monitoring and regulating these processes. The screen capture not only highlights the advanced technology employed but also serves as a reminder of our reliance on traditional fuels for electricity generation. It prompts us to consider alternative energy sources that can help reduce greenhouse gas emissions while meeting our ever-increasing demand for power. Science Photo Library brings this remarkable image from Fawley power station, capturing both its industrial beauty and technological significance within the realm of electrical generation.
