The theory behind hydropower is very simple: water obeys gravity and imparts the gained kinetic energy onto a turbine, which subsequently drives a generator.  The devil here is, of course, in all ...

If you often lose power where you live, whether because of seasonal storms such as hurricanes or due to other problems with the electrical grid, having a whole-house generator can be very convenient.

Abstract: As part of the German SupraGenSys project, a fully superconducting generator for wind energy conversion systems was investigated, which will be built and demonstrated as part of SupraGenSys ...

Abstract: Superconducting (SC) synchronous generators are proposed as a promising candidate for 10-20-MW direct-drive wind turbines because they can have low weights and small sizes. A common way of ...

There are generators with enough power for home backup that roll on wheels and technically are portable. But when we talk about “portable generators” we’re usually referring to models that are small ...

The US is looking to tap the nation’s network of large industrial diesel generators used at data centers, big box stores and elsewhere to help curb rising electricity costs and support the surge in ...
