2. Inverter-based resource - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverter-based_resource

   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 ...

3. 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 ...

4. Renewable energy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renewable_energy

   Renewable energy (or green energy) is energy from renewable natural resources that are replenished on a human timescale. The most widely used renewable energy types are solar energy, wind power, and hydropower. Bioenergy and geothermal power are also significant in some countries. Some also consider nuclear power a renewable power source ...

6. Solar updraft tower - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_updraft_tower

   The solar updraft tower ( SUT) is a design concept for a renewable-energy power plant for generating electricity from low temperature solar heat. Sunshine heats the air beneath a very wide greenhouse-like roofed collector structure surrounding the central base of a very tall chimney tower. The resulting convection causes a hot air updraft in ...

7. Microgeneration - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microgeneration

   a charge controller for charging the batteries or other energy storage. For converting DC battery power into AC as required for many appliances, or for feeding excess power into a commercial power grid: an inverter or grid-interactive inverter. The whole is also sometimes referred to as "power conditioning equipment".
