2. Induction generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induction_generator

   An induction generator produces electrical power when its rotor is turned faster than the synchronous speed. For a four-pole motor (two pairs of poles on stator) powered by a 60 Hz source, the synchronous speed is 1800 rotations per minute (rpm) and 1500 RPM powered at 50 Hz. The motor always turns slightly slower than the synchronous speed.

3. Inverter-based resource - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverter-based_resource

   An inverter-based resource (IBR) is a source of electricity that is asynchronously connected to the electrical grid via an electronic power converter ("inverter"). The devices in this category, also known as converter interfaced generation (CIG), include the variable renewable energy generators (wind, solar) and battery storage power stations. [1]

4. Generac - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generac

   Generac Holdings Inc., commonly referred to as Generac (derived from a combination of generating and AC), is a Fortune 1000 American manufacturer of backup power generation products for residential, light commercial and industrial markets. [6]

5. Permanent magnet synchronous generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permanent_magnet...

   A permanent magnet synchronous generator is a generator where the excitation field is provided by a permanent magnet instead of a coil. The term synchronous refers here to the fact that the rotor and magnetic field rotate with the same speed, because the magnetic field is generated through a shaft-mounted permanent magnet mechanism, and current is induced into the stationary armature.

6. Engine–generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engine–generator

   An engine–generator is the combination of an electrical generator and an engine (prime mover) mounted together to form a single piece of equipment. This combination is also called an engine–generator set or a gen-set. In many contexts, the engine is taken for granted and the combined unit is simply called a generator. An engine–generator ...

7. Inertial response - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inertial_response

   a VRE generator usually either does not have a rotational mass (solar), or its design does not electromechanically couple it with the rest of the grid. A typical VRE generator is connected to the grid through an inverter (these generators are thus commonly called inverter-based resources ) and therefore is unable to contribute the inertia to ...
