It depends on landscaple, if it has river from mountains, it's better hydro power plant.
Thermal power plants most useful in northern countries because of generation power and heating. Nuclear power plant uses on most big megapolises. Wind power plants depends on landscapes also.
We required power, there is no issue! it comes from what ever sources!? but the source of mechanical energy is the question, it depends on Investment, availability, affordability, situation, Local rules and regulations etc.,
Here hydro energy & wind energy is almost used to generate electricity only.
"Most suitable" is not helping to determine what's the target.
Wind is currently the cheapest in terms of cost per kWh generated, but you need at least7-8m/s wind speed average and low turbulences to make it cost-effective without incentives.
It is highly intermittent in the short period (from% nominal power one day to0% nominal power the next day) but highly predictable in the-years scale period (+/-5%).
Capex around $1.5m /MWp for on-shore farms and $2.5-3m /MWp for off-shore farms, but no cost for input and around$/MWh O&M costs (on-shore) and$/MWh off-shore. Capacity factor around-% for good on shore wind farms and >-% for good off shore wind farms. (Capacity Factor = annual production / theoretical annual production at full nominal power x8, hours)
Hydro less intermittent in the short term (flow of the river), or even perfectly predictable in the case of hydro from dams and basins. But highly impacting the environment, with entire valleys flooded for the construction of reservoirs.
Cost per MWh can be even lower than wind, but hard to assess the environmental costs related to construction of infrastructure.
Construction of water reservoirs can contribute to regulation of river floods, but it is also harming animal species and i some cases the quality of life of entire human populations surviving of fishery.
Thermo: low capex, high Opex, totally depending by cost of fuel (oil/gas/coal/etc). Highly polluting the environment both with CO2, methane emissions, particulate. It's one of the major sources of the "carbonification of atmosphere), the process with which humans transfer carbon from underground to atmosphere.
Nuclear: real cost of nuclear has been highly under evaluated, as the only cost taken into consideration was the fuel, capex and some Opex. But the cost of disposal of nuclear waste, of the dismissal of the plants at the end of their working life, the security services related to all the supply chain of both the nuclear fuel and technology has never been taken into real consideration. Moreover, the cost of air fighters protecting the "no-fly-zone" over the nuclear power plants (in France),/,7/7 and/, has always been paid by taxpayers, never by the owner of the nuclear plants selling the energy. Nuclear plants also need enormous quantities of water to work, and in case of droughts the plants can be shut down. Finally, also the capacity factor (i.e. the quantity of time the plant is working in one year) has always been overestimated: in UK, the average CF for nuclear plants has been in the past decades around%, due to enormous maintenance works needed.
NUCLEAR IS SUFFICIENTLY,BUT COSTLY,DANGER AND FORBIDDEN
HYDRO & THERMAL ARE AVAILABLE AND COMMON
WIND IS NOT UTILIZED
Good day. Providing homeowners with energy independence and protection from rising prices, solar panels have become the first choice for many electricity consumers. Oncor welcomes the installation of solar panels and strives to ensure that customers have an excellent experience using this equipment. Therefore, if you decide to install solar panels, you should contact oncor and their experienced specialists will provide high-quality advice and support during the installation of solar panels.
Large power plants can be of only thermal, nuclear and hydro power types. The selection depends on many factors - Availability of the input, enevironmental conditions, quantum of power requirement etc.
Nuclear power stations are usually considered to be base load stations, since fuel is a small part of the cost of production.[3] Their operations and maintenance (O&M) and fuel costs are, along with hydropower stations, at the low end of the spectrum and make them suitable as base-load power suppliers. The cost of spent fuel management, however, is somewhat uncertain
