Heat Rate means the quantity of BTU’s consumed to produce a kilowatt-hour of energy, calculated as follows:

Heat Rate means, for purposes of this Agreement, the value obtained, in BTU per kWh, when the fuel input, on a Higher Heating Value basis, in BTU is divided by generation, net of Station Use, in kWh.

Heat Rate means the number of Btu’s used to produce one MW of energy measured at the Electricity Delivery Point.

Examples of Heat Rate in a sentence

More Definitions of Heat Rate

Heat Rate means, in respect of a generating unit, the ratio of the quantity of fuel consumed (Btus), measured on a “high heating value” basis, to the net output of electric energy (kW) as measured in any period.

Heat Rate means the efficiency of a Unit’s ability to convert fuel into power.

Heat Rate. The number of British Thermal Units (BTU) required to produce one kilowatt hour of energy at the Facility.

Heat Rate means a measure of the efficiency of an electric generating station, computed by dividing the total British thermal unit content of the fuel burned by the resulting net kilowatt-hours generated.

Heat Rate means the ratio of energy inputs used by a generating facility expressed in BTUs (British Thermal Units), to the energy output of that facility expressed in kilowatt hours.

Heat Rate expressed in Btu per kWh, means the fuel energy consumption expressed in Btu (higher heating value) required to generate one kWh by the Fossil Fuel Fired Component at the high voltage bushings of the main power transformers.
