2. Hybrid power - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybrid_power

   Horizontal axis wind-turbine, combined with a solar panel on a lighting pylon at Weihai, Shandong province, China. Combined use of wind+solar systems results, in many places, in a smoother/cleaner power output since the resources are anti-correlated. Therefore, the combined use of wind and solar systems is crucial for a large-scale grid ...

3. Renewable energy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renewable_energy

   Today, the vast majority of wind power is used to generate electricity using wind turbines. [12] Modern utility-scale wind turbines range from around 600 kW to 9 MW of rated power. The power available from the wind is a function of the cube of the wind speed, so as wind speed increases, power output increases up to the maximum output for the ...

4. Cost of electricity by source - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cost_of_electricity_by_source

   Capital costs tend to be low for gas and oil power stations; moderate for onshore wind turbines and solar PV (photovoltaics); higher for coal plants and higher still for waste-to-energy, wave and tidal, solar thermal, offshore wind and nuclear. Fuel costs – high for fossil fuel and biomass sources, low for nuclear, and zero for many renewables.

   Record growth in wind and solar last year pushed worldwide electricity generation to its cleanest-ever level, a report found, reflecting a renewable energy boom that researchers say could herald ...

6. Variable renewable energy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable_renewable_energy

   The total shutdown of wind turbines is predictable via weather forecasting. The average availability of a wind turbine is 98%, and when a turbine fails or is shut down for maintenance it only affects a small percentage of the output of a large wind farm. [34] Predictability: Although wind is variable, it is also predictable in the short term ...
