In the area of Belchatow, in which operates the largest lignite mine and the lignite fired power plant (commune Kleszczow) and commune around deposit Gubin-Brody with ...

This research consists of two studies regarding power generation projects. First based upon hard coal and second as joint optimisation of lignite open pit mine and lignite fired power station. Hard coal spreads as fossil fuels combustion competitiveness measure were calculated based on the typical parameters for the Polish hard coal and lignite power stations. Brown spread calculated for lignite power station generally indicates a higher value than the dark spread for hard coal combustion. Spreads value depend on ...
