nettosähkötehoa

Nettosähköteho, often translated as net electrical power, refers to the actual electrical power delivered by a power generation source after accounting for internal consumption and losses. In simpler terms, it's the amount of electricity that is available for use by the grid or consumers. Power plants, for instance, use a portion of the electricity they generate to power their own operations, such as running auxiliary equipment, lighting, and control systems. This self-consumption reduces the total gross electrical power produced.

The calculation of net electrical power is crucial for determining the efficiency and economic viability of a power generation facility. It represents the saleable or usable output of the plant. Losses can also occur during transmission and distribution, but net electrical power typically refers to the power *leaving* the generation site. Understanding net electrical power is important for energy market participants, grid operators, and policymakers to accurately assess power availability and capacity. It is a fundamental metric in the energy sector.
