  2. Microgeneration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microgeneration

    Microgeneration technologies include small-scale wind turbines, micro hydro, solar PV systems, microbial fuel cells, ground source heat pumps, and micro combined heat and power installations. [1] These technologies are often combined to form a hybrid power solution that can offer superior performance and lower cost than a system based on one ...

  3. Small wind turbine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Small_wind_turbine

    A 1 kW micro windmill installed in the suburbs of Lahore, Pakistan. Small wind turbines, also known as micro wind turbines or urban wind turbines, are wind turbines that generate electricity for small-scale use. These turbines are typically smaller than those found in wind farms. Small wind turbines often have passive yaw systems as opposed to ...

  4. 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 ...

  6. Wind turbine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind_turbine

    A wind turbine is a device that converts the kinetic energy of wind into electrical energy. As of 2020, hundreds of thousands of large turbines, in installations known as wind farms, were generating over 650 gigawatts of power, with 60 GW added each year. [ 1]

  7. Micro combined heat and power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micro_combined_heat_and_power

    Micro combined heat and power, micro-CHP, μCHP or mCHP is an extension of the idea of cogeneration to the single/multi family home or small office building in the range of up to 50 kW. [ 1] Usual technologies for the production of heat and power in one common process are e.g. internal combustion engines, micro gas turbines, stirling engines or ...

  8. Vertical-axis wind turbine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertical-axis_wind_turbine

    A vertical-axis wind turbine ( VAWT) is a type of wind turbine where the main rotor shaft is set transverse to the wind while the main components are located at the base of the turbine. This arrangement allows the generator and gearbox to be located close to the ground, facilitating service and repair. VAWTs do not need to be pointed into the ...
