Solar tower The solar thermal energy heating and cooling systems, discussed in a previous post, operate at low temperatures. Therefore, they are only suitable to power and provide cooling at a low scale. The high-temperature mechanism to collect solar energy for power generation can utilize solar sterling dishes (a type
Harvesting wind energy using wind turbines A wind turbine is a device that converts the energy in the flow of wind to electricity. In order to capture the wind energy, a wind turbine is employed. The wind drives the blades of a wind turbine which is connected to the rotor
DC microgrids DC microgrids are a collection of distributed power resources that include generators and energy storage devices. DC microgrids provide an efficient way to use power from renewable energy sources to improve the environment through the production of clean energy. These microgrids are situated in close proximity to the
