Generators are the devices that transfer kinetic energy into electrical energy.
Turning generators directly
Generators can be turned directly, for example, by:
  • wind turbines
  • hydroelectric turbines
  • wave and tidal turbines
When electricity is generated using wave, wind, tidal or hydroelectric power (HEP) there are two steps:
  1. The turbine turns a generator.
  2. Electricity is produced.
Turning generators indirectly
Generators can be turned indirectly using fossil or nuclear fuels. The heat from the fuel boils water to make steam, which expands and pushes against the blades of a turbine. The spinning turbine then turns the generator.

Geothermal reservoirs that can be exploited by geothermal dry steam power plants are rare. marcelaurani https://padlet.com/marcelaurani/energy100/wish/203138200 2017-11-02 22:51:42 UTC https://padlet.com/marcelaurani/energy100/wish/203138200 SOLAR VS DIESEL FUEL marcelaurani https://padlet.com/marcelaurani/energy100/wish/203532170 Read the discussion.  What do yu think?

Solar panels actually comprise many, smaller units called photovoltaic cells.  (photovoltaic means they convert sunlight into electricity.) Many cells linked together make up a solar panel.
