  Comparison of Thermal and Hydro Power Stations Power generation systems vary significantly based on their energy source, infrastructure, and execution challenges. Thermal and hydro power stations differ in design, assembly, manpower needs, and logistical complexities. 1. Construction & Equipment Assembly Thermal Power Stations Most major components, except boilers, arrive preassembled or trial-assembled , minimizing on-site assembly efforts. Civil work is moderate , mainly limited to foundations, cooling towers, and fuel handling structures. Equipment installation follows a modular approach , allowing for faster and more predictable assembly. Hydro Power Stations Due to the large size of components (e.g., turbines and generators ), most electro-mechanical assemblies arrive in parts and require complete assembly on-site. Generators require full frame assembly, core assembly, and winding work at the ...
