Oil PowerPlant (Real Power mod)

Description
Oil PowerPlant (Real Power mod) by condac

Wind 2 MW
Coal 200 MW
Oil 200 MW
Solar tower 55 MW
Advanced Wind 10 MW
Nuclear unchanged at the moment, but probably 750 MW
Hydro also unchanged at the moment.

I have made new versions of all powerplants using real world examples of power productions. I thought lots of powerplants produced to much power in relation to each other. So if a nuclear powerplant produce 640MW a wind tubine should only produce 0.42MW, and the biggest solarfarms electric output in average over a year is a lot less for example. And coal powerplants produce a lot more..

I hope more people will realize that powerplants in this game have a strange balance and need to be more realistic

Thanks for Input! I have done lots of "wikipedia-research" to get Numbers :)
The biggest nuclear power plant I have found is Oskarshamn 3 in Sweden and it produces 1450 MW of elecricity (and swedish wikipedia states its the biggest in the world of that type, subject to change?), typical Nuclear power plant is 1000MW. People often present values for a total site with about 5 Plants, and then you get the numbers up to around 3000MW total. I used the average nuclear power production in Sweden and during a year with downtimes for service total production is 741MW per plant (954MW installed capacity). Not to far from games already 640MW, This is why I have changed all but nuclear to have the same conditions in relation to the nuclear that was already pretty close to real life numbers. Wind power with the same calculation in sweden is 0.42MW per plant (1.76MW installed capacity average). And biggest Windturbine installed in sweden is 4.1MW. Solar numbers often refer to thermal MW not electricity MW. And game don't handle loss of wind and solar during year so I have avereged total production per year, once the game handle variating condition the values can be boosted.
