- Fossil fuel, nuclear, and hydroelectric power plants all require a transmission network to transport electricity from where it is generated to where it is used. MCFCs, with their smaller size and portability, can be placed much closer to where the power is needed, reducing the need for transmission lines. With this in mind, explain why MCFCs may have a greater advantage for providing power in developing countries versus in developed countries.arrow_forwardThe best solar panels currently available are about 15% efficient in converting sunlight to electricity. A typical home will use about 40. kWh of electricity per day (1 kWh = 1 kilowatt hour; 1kW = 1000 J/s).
