Partially because of this heat, the Brayton cycle has the potential to be much more efficient at turning heat from power plants—nuclear, natural gas or even concentrated solar—into energy than the traditional steam-based Rankine cycle. In comparison, the Brayton cycle has a theoretical conversion efficiency upwards of 50%.
