ElectricPowerStation_P | Feature Type | A facility including one or more buildings and equipment used for electric power generation. | An electric power station consists of one or more power generating units, each consisting of the full set of equipment required to generate power and capable of independent operation. The power generating units are located on one or more contiguous or adjacent properties, are under the common control of the same entity and supply power through a common connection to the electric grid. Electric power stations most commonly are used to generate electricity for long distance transmission.

HeatingFacility_P | Feature Type | A facility for the generation of thermal energy for heating purposes. | -
HeatingFacility_S | Feature Type | A facility for the generation of thermal energy for heating purposes. | -
NuclearReactorContainment_P | Feature Type | A building-like structure intended to create a barrier against the release of radioactivity generated during nuclear power operations. | The structure is usually heavily reinforced. It houses equipment used to manage a self-sustaining nuclear reaction of fissile material. The consequent release of energy may be used to generate electricity, as in a power plant.

PowerGeneratingUnit_P | Feature Type | A full set of equipment, capable of independent operation, used to generate power at a power station. | In the case of electric power generation it includes all equipment up to the high-voltage terminal of the generator step-up transformer (IEEE 762). In the case of a steam electric power generating unit, it consists of individual boilers, any installed emission control equipment, and any steam turbine/generators dedicated to generating electricity. All combustion units/boilers/combined cycle turbines that produce steam for use in a single steam turbine/generator unit are part of the same electric power generating unit.
