Abstract

A modern large electrical power plant, powered by fossil fuels, hydro, nuclear energy, etc., may simply be called a complex human–machine system that controls a thermodynamic process employed for generating electricity. The machine aspect of the system is a rather sophisticated arrangement of software and hardware elements that are generally highly reliable and redundant. The human aspect of the system is a fairly large sociotechnological organization with engineering, management, training, operations, and maintenance manpower.
