Oh, you made me take out Khartchenko. Theoretical efficiency for a supercritical double-reheat steam system, 250 bar and 560 deg. C input steam, condenser pressure 0.04 bar, is 45% . That's with perfect pumps, compressors, etc., two reheat cycles and a very good vacuum at the bottom of the second low-pressure expander. The Carnot efficiency for that is 63% so the Rankine cycle isn't perfect, but it's pretty good.
TL:DR "most of power generating plant energy" is being rejected because of the FUCKING LAWS OF THERMODYNAMICS.
EDITED: Also, the power companies do not have "Guaranteed profit margins". They have to go to a government agency to change their rates, so they have a guaranteed sale price. Any efficiency improvements go straight to the bottom line.
