1. A system, comprising: an insulated water tank comprising a water heater disposed inside the insulated water tank, wherein the insulated water tank is configured to store a first heated water from a first plant component during operation of a plant, and the water heater is configured to heat the first heated water;a fuel heater comprising a first heat exchanger, wherein the first heat exchanger is configured to transfer heat from the first heated water to a fuel for a second plant component during startup of the plant; anda second heat exchanger, wherein the second heat exchanger is disposed inside the insulated water tank, and the second heat exchanger is configured to heat the first heated water within the insulated water tank with heat from a third plant component. 2. The system of claim 1, wherein the second plant component is a gas turbine engine. 3. The system of claim 2, wherein the first plant component comprises a heat recovery steam generation (HRSG) component. 4. The system of claim 2, wherein the first plant component comprises an integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) component. 5. The system of claim 2, wherein the first plant component comprises a solar thermal collector. 6. The system of claim 1, wherein the first heat exchanger is configured to transfer heat from a second heated water to the fuel after startup of the plant. 7. The system of claim 6, comprising a controller configured to transition from a first flow of the first heated water through the first heat exchanger during startup to a second flow of the second heated water through the first heat exchanger after startup. 8. The system of claim 6, wherein the second plant component is configured to supply the second heated water to the first heat exchanger. 9. The system of claim 8, wherein the second plant component does not route the second heated water through the insulated water tank. 10. A system, comprising: a combustion system configured to combust a fuel;a first component configured to heat a first fluid with heat generated during operation of the combustion system;an insulated tank comprising a fluid heater disposed within the insulated tank in thermal communication with a second component, wherein the insulated tank is configured to store the first fluid in a heated condition;a fuel heater comprising a heat exchanger configured to transfer heat from the first fluid stored in the insulated tank to the fuel during startup of the combustion system; anda controller configured to control the fluid heater to heat the first fluid after shutdown of the combustion system to maintain the first fluid at or above a threshold level. 11. The system of claim 10, comprising the controller configured to transition from a first flow of the first fluid through the heat exchanger during startup to a second flow of a second fluid through the heat exchanger after startup, wherein the second fluid is heated with heat generated during operation of the combustion system. 12. The system of claim 10, wherein the first component is a part of the combustion system. 13. The system of claim 10, wherein the first component comprises an integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) plant component, a heat recovery steam generation (HRSG) component, a gasification component, a gas treatment component, or a combination thereof. 14. The system of claim 10, wherein the combustion system includes a gas turbine engine. 15. A system, comprising: an insulated water tank;a first heat exchanger disposed inside the insulated water tank configured to thermally communicate with an external heat source to heat water within the insulated water tank;a water heater disposed inside the insulated water tank configured to heat the water within the insulated water tank;at least one thermal sensor configured to detect a temperature of the water within the insulated water tank; anda fuel heating controller configured to communicate with the at least one thermal sensor and to determine whether to heat the water in the insulated water tank with the external heat source through the first heat exchanger or with the water heater, and wherein the fuel heating controller is configured to enable a first flow of a first heated fluid from the insulated water tank through a second heat exchanger of a fuel heater during startup of a combustion system, and the fuel heating controller is configured to enable a second flow of a second heated fluid through the second heat exchanger of the fuel heater after startup of the combustion system. 16. The system of claim 15, comprising the combustion system having the fuel heating controller, wherein the fuel heating controller is configured to transition from the first flow through the second heat exchanger during startup to the second flow through the second heat exchanger after startup. 17. The system of claim 16, wherein the combustion system comprises a gas turbine engine. 18. The system of claim 1, wherein the first plant component is a gas turbine engine. 19. The system of claim 10, wherein the second component is not part of the combustion system.
