  2. Stand-alone power system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stand-alone_power_system

    Schematics of a hybrid system. A stand-alone power system (SAPS or SPS), also known as remote area power supply (RAPS), is an off-the-grid electricity system for locations that are not fitted with an electricity distribution system. Typical SAPS include one or more methods of electricity generation, energy storage, and regulation.

  3. Microgrid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microgrid

    A stand-alone microgrid has its own sources of electricity, supplemented with an energy storage system. They are used where power transmission and distribution from a major centralized energy source is too far and costly to operate. [1] They offer an option for rural electrification in remote areas and on smaller geographical islands. [4]

  4. Nonintrusive load monitoring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonintrusive_load_monitoring

    A stand-alone in-home system, under the control of the user, can provide feedback about energy use, without revealing information to others. Drawing links between their behavior and energy consumption may help reduce energy consumption, improve efficiency, flatten peak loads, save money, or balance appliance use with green energy availability.

    Stand-alone shell, a Unix shell designed for recovering from system failures; Stand-alone power system, an off-the-grid electricity system; Standalone film, a film that does not have any relation to other films; Stand-alone sequel, a sequel set in the same fictional universe but having little or no reference to predecessors; Standalone software ...

  6. Hybrid power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybrid_power

    Hybrid renewable energy systems are becoming popular as stand-alone power systems for providing electricity in remote areas due to advances in renewable energy technologies and subsequent rise in prices of petroleum products. A hybrid energy system, or hybrid power, usually consists of two or more renewable energy sources used together to ...

  7. Virtual machine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_machine

    The "guest" operating system environments share the same running instance of the operating system as the host system. Thus, the same operating system kernel is also used to implement the "guest" environments, and applications running in a given "guest" environment view it as a stand-alone system.

  8. Power supply - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_supply

    A bench power supply is a stand-alone desktop unit used in applications such as circuit test and development. Open frame power supplies have only a partial mechanical enclosure, sometimes consisting of only a mounting base; these are typically built into machinery or other equipment.

  9. Virtualization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtualization

    Each CP/CMS user was provided a simulated, stand-alone computer. Each such virtual machine had the complete capabilities of the underlying machine, and (for its user) the virtual machine was indistinguishable from a private system. This simulation was comprehensive, and was based on the Principles of Operation manual for the hardware. It thus ...
