2. Microgeneration - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microgeneration

   Microgeneration is the small-scale production of heat or electric power from a "low carbon source," as an alternative or supplement to traditional centralized grid-connected power. Microgeneration technologies include small-scale wind turbines , micro hydro , solar PV systems , microbial fuel cells , ground source heat pumps , and micro ...

3. Nanogenerator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanogenerator

   A nanogenerator is a compact device that converts mechanical or thermal energy into electricity, serving to harvest energy for small, wireless autonomous devices. It uses ambient energy sources like solar, wind, thermal differentials, and kinetic energy.

4. Microturbine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microturbine

   The MT are 25 to 500 kW (34 to 671 hp) gas turbines evolved from piston engine turbochargers, aircraft auxiliary power units (APU) or small jet engines, the size of a refrigerator. [2] Early turbines of 30–70 kW (40–94 hp) grew to 200–250 kW (270–340 hp).

5. Electric generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_generator

   A magnetohydrodynamic generator directly extracts electric power from moving hot gases through a magnetic field, without the use of rotating electromagnetic machinery. MHD generators were originally developed because the output of a plasma MHD generator is a flame, well able to heat the boilers of a steam power plant. The first practical design ...

6. Small engine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Small_engine

   Briggs & Stratton Vanguard V-twin engine in a portable generator. A small engine is the general term for a wide range of small-displacement, low-powered internal combustion engines used to power lawn mowers, generators, concrete mixers and many other machines that require independent power sources. [1]

7. Statkraft osmotic power prototype in Hurum - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statkraft_osmotic_power...

   The salt water pulls fresh water through the membrane and the pressure increases on the salt water side; this pressure increase can be used to produce electrical power with the use of a normal hydroelectric turbine/generator setup. The plant is a prototype developed together with Sintef and began test power production on 24 November 2009.

9. Thermoelectric generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoelectric_generator

   Thermoelectric generators are primarily used as remote and off-grid power generators for unmanned sites. They are the most reliable power generator in such situations as they do not have moving parts (thus virtually maintenance-free), work day and night, perform under all weather conditions and can work without battery backup.
