====Fossil-fuel and bio-energy power plants====
A total of 20 types of power plants generating electricity using fossil fuels and bioenergy are included. These power plants represent different combinations of conventional technology, such as gasification and combined cycle ({{AbbrTemplate|CC}}) technology; combined heat and power ({{AbbrTemplate|CHP}}); and carbon capture and storage ({{AbbrTemplate|CCS}};[[Hendriks et al., 2004b|(2004b)]]). The specific capital costs and thermal efficiencies of these types of plants are determined by exogenous assumptions that describe the technological progress of typical components of these plants:

* For conventional power plants, the coal-fired plant is defined in terms of overall efficiency and investment cost. The characteristics of all other conventional plants (using oil, natural gas or bioenergy) are described in the investment differences for desulphurisation, fuel handling and efficiency.
