  2. Levelized cost of electricity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Levelized_cost_of_electricity

    The levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) is the average cost in currency per energy unit, for example, EUR per kilowatt-hour or AUD per megawatt-hour. [5] The LCOE is an estimation of the cost of production of energy, thus it tells nothing about the price for consumers and is most meaningful from the investor’s point of view.

  3. Cost of electricity by source - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cost_of_electricity_by_source

    The levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) is a metric that attempts to compare the costs of different methods of electricity generation consistently. Though LCOE is often presented as the minimum constant price at which electricity must be sold to break even over the lifetime of the project, such a cost analysis requires assumptions about the value of various non-financial costs (environmental ...

    The Mk 2 CCS paired with the AN/BQQ-5E system is referred to as the QE-2" system. The CCS MK2 Block 1 A/B system architecture extends the CCS MK2 tactical system with a network of tactical advanced computers (TAC-3). These TAC-3s are configured to support the SFMPL, NTCS-A, LINK-11 and ATWCS subsystems. Sensors Sonar AN/BQQ-5

  5. Electrostatic generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrostatic_generator

    12" Quadruple Sector-less Wimshurst Machine (Bonetti Machine) An electrostatic generator, or electrostatic machine, is an electrical generator that produces static electricity, or electricity at high voltage and low continuous current. The knowledge of static electricity dates back to the earliest civilizations, but for millennia it remained ...

  6. Merit order - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Merit_order

    Merit order. The merit order is a way of ranking available sources of energy, especially electrical generation, based on ascending order of price (which may reflect the order of their short-run marginal costs of production) and sometimes pollution, together with amount of energy that will be generated. In a centralized management, the ranking ...

  7. Magnetohydrodynamic generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetohydrodynamic_generator

    A magnetohydrodynamic generator ( MHD generator) is a magnetohydrodynamic converter that transforms thermal energy and kinetic energy directly into electricity. An MHD generator, like a conventional generator, relies on moving a conductor through a magnetic field to generate electric current. The MHD generator uses hot conductive ionized gas (a ...

  8. Ravenswood Generating Station - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ravenswood_generating_station

    Related media on Commons. [ edit on Wikidata] Ravenswood Generating Station is a 2,480 megawatt power plant in Long Island City in Queens, New York City. [1] It is owned and operated by LS Power/ Helix Energy Solutions Group. [2] The plant is fueled primarily by fuel oil (no. 6) and natural gas which heats the boilers.

  9. Pico hydro - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pico_hydro

    Pico hydro is a term used for hydroelectric power generation of under 5 kW. These generators have proven to be useful in small, remote communities that require only a small amount of electricity – for example, to power one or two fluorescent light bulbs and a TV or radio in 50 or so homes. [2] Even smaller turbines of 200–300 W may power a ...
