Determine the amount of natural gas therms required by the


Approximately 238,000 MWh of electricity was used on a college campus. This included the self generation of approximately 24,000 MWh by the power plant located on campus and the rest was purchased from the local utility. Both of these values are measured at campus buildings/facilities after the transmission loss. Determine the amount of natural gas (therms) required by the on-campus power plant if that were the fuel used here. Assume 35% efficiency for this power plant, but only 3% transmission loss (since the distances are much shorter).
