Petcoke Power Generation: An Overview of Its Role in Energy Production

Petcoke, short for petroleum coke, is a carbon-rich solid material derived from refining crude oil. As an emerging energy source, petcoke has found its application in power generation, particularly in countries like the United States and Chile. Currently, there are 12 petcoke power plants worldwide, with a total installed capacity of approximately 2.4 gigawatts (GW), predominantly concentrated in the United States, which hosts 11 plants contributing to 2.4 GW of capacity, while Chile operates one plant with a capacity of 0.1 GW.
