Abstract
In this study, the main countries with high coal-fired power plant installation capacity and Türkiye, which are among the first in the world in electricity production in this field, and Türkiye are discussed, and parameters such as the installed power and capacity developments of the coal-fired power plants in these countries, electrical energy production values and CO2 emissions from fossil fuels have been evaluated over the years. Emissions from fossil fuels have been evaluated over the years. In this study, predictions about the future of coal-fired power plants were tried to be made by making projection studies. Analysis results are indicated and interpreted with figures and tables. When projections are made according to the current situation, it is predicted that in 2030 and 2050, China will be the first in coal-fired power plant installed power development and electricity production, and accordingly in CO2 emissions from fossil fuels. In addition, the capacity utilization rates, which are an important parameter regarding the efficient operation of coal-fired thermal power plants and their age, have been determined for certain countries over the years. In this study, the country with the highest capacity ratio, with a capacity ratio of around 90%, was determined as Japan. Today, in connection with the re-emergence of coal with the emergence of the energy crisis, energy production planning, and projection studies gain strategic importance for each country. In the literature, country-based projection studies for coal-fired power plants are insufficient and limited. Comprehensive projection study in this area contributes to the studies in the literature.
