  2. 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.

  3. Radioisotope thermoelectric generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radioisotope...

    Diagram of an RTG used on the Cassini probe. A radioisotope thermoelectric generator (RTG, RITEG), sometimes referred to as a radioisotope power system (RPS), is a type of nuclear battery that uses an array of thermocouples to convert the heat released by the decay of a suitable radioactive material into electricity by the Seebeck effect.

  4. Multi-mission radioisotope thermoelectric generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-Mission_Radioisotope...

    A uniquely capable source of power is the radioisotope thermoelectric generator (RTG) – essentially a nuclear battery that reliably converts heat into electricity. [2] Radioisotope power has been used on eight Earth orbiting missions, eight missions to the outer planets, and the Apollo missions after Apollo 11 to the Moon.

  5. Emergency power system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emergency_power_system

    A backup generator for a large apartment building A backup power fuel cell for telecom applications A portable emergency power generator in a shipping container. An emergency power system is an independent source of electrical power that supports important electrical systems on loss of normal power supply.

  6. Uninterruptible power supply - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uninterruptible_power_supply

    Offline/standby UPS: The green line illustrates the flow of electric power. Typical protection time: 5–20 minutes. Capacity expansion: Usually not available. The offline/standby UPS offers only the most basic features, providing surge protection and battery backup. The protected equipment is normally connected directly to incoming utility power.

  7. Betavoltaic device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Betavoltaic_device

    A betavoltaic device (betavoltaic cell or betavoltaic battery) is a type of nuclear battery that generates electric current from beta particles emitted from a radioactive source, using semiconductor junctions. A common source used is the hydrogen isotope tritium.
