Work availability

The availability of work is a key figure for the energy industry and is determined as the quotient of the available work of a thermal power plant and the nominal work of this plant.

On the basis of the work availability of a plant, it can be determined how much work a plant can perform based on its technical and operational condition, based on a period of time.

${\displaystyle k_{W}={\frac {W_{V}}{W_{N}}}}$

k _W is the work availability, W _{V is} the available work and W _{N is} the nominal work.
