Answer:

Tarapur Nuclear Reactor in Maharashtra, Ramagundam Thermal Power plant, Andhra Pradesh, Sardar Sarovar Hydro Electric Power plant, Gujarat.

Explanation:

Different types of power plants generate energy using different fuels.

Nuclear power plant:

  • A nuclear fission reaction in uranium is used to generate power in nuclear power plants.
  • Nuclear energy sources release large amounts of energy and hence generate a high amount of electricity.
  • In India, nuclear power plants deliver a total capacity of 6.7GW, contributing 2% of the country’s electricity supply.
  • India has 22 nuclear reactors in seven sites.
  • To mention a few, Tarapur Nuclear Reactor in Maharashtra,  Kudankulam Nuclear Power Plant, Tamil Nadu, Kaiga Atomic Power Plant, Karnataka.

Hydroelectric power plant:

  • Hydroelectricity is generated by harnessing the gravitational force of flowing water.
  • This is the oldest and most commonly-used renewable source of electricity.
  • India has about 197 Hydro electric power plants, contributing to roughly 12% of total power production in India.
  • Few of the power plants in India are Nagarjunasagar Hydro Electric Power plant, Andhra Pradesh, Sardar Sarovar Hydro Electric Power plant, Gujarat, Sidrapong Hydropower plant, Darjeeling.

Thermoelectric plant:

  • Thermal electricity is generated by converting the heat energy into  electric energy.
  • Fuel may be the coal, diesel, geothermal, natural gas, waste material, etc.
  • The heat generated from the fuel generates the steam which runs the steam turbine that generates electric energy.
  • All the thermoelectric plants in india add upto roughly 70% of total power production.
  • Few of the thermoelectric plants are Durgapur Thermal Power plant, West Bengal, Ramagundam Thermal Power plant, Andhra Pradesh, Chandrapur Thermal Power plant, Maharashtra.

Other than these, wind power, solar power, tidal power plants are also used to generate electric energy.
