In power genera-tion and CHP applications reciprocating engines generally drive synchronous generators at constant speed to produce stead alternating current AC power. As load is reduced the heat rate of spark ignition engines increases and efficiency decreases
Read MoreThe heat rate also effects commercial electricity rates but is not as easy a thing to track and understand. Primarily because there is no publicly accessible index to track heat rates. As power plants come on and offline and as other factors such as weather impact plant efficiency the heat rate fluctuates up and down
