Sevillana de Electricidad (CSE) The Compañía Sevillana de Electricidad, S. A. (known as CSE, Sevillana, or Sevillana de Electricidad) was a Spanish electricity generation company, founded in Seville in 1894. In the course of the 20th century it absorbed various other companies and came to be practically the sole generator of power in Andalusia.
The Cockcroft–Walton (CW) generator, or multiplier, is an electric circuit that generates a high DC voltage from a low-voltage AC [1].It was named after the British and Irish physicists John Douglas Cockcroft and Ernest Thomas Sinton Walton, who in 1932 used this circuit design to power their particle accelerator, performing the first artificial nuclear disintegration in history.

Electric generator. U.S. NRC image of a modern steam turbine generator (STG). In electricity generation, a generator[ 1] is a device that converts motion-based power ( potential and kinetic energy) or fuel-based power ( chemical energy) into electric power for use in an external circuit. Sources of mechanical energy include steam turbines, gas ...
Van de Graaff generator. A Van de Graaff generator is an electrostatic generator which uses a moving belt to accumulate electric charge on a hollow metal globe on the top of an insulated column, creating very high electric potentials. It produces very high voltage direct current (DC) electricity at low current levels.
Workers' Left Front. The Workers' Left Front – Unity ( Spanish: Frente de Izquierda y de los Trabajadores – Unidad, FIT-U) is an electoral alliance of four revolutionary Trotskyist communist parties in Argentina: the Workers' Party (PO), the Socialist Workers' Party (PTS), Socialist Left (IS), and the Workers' Socialist Movement (MST).

WASHINGTON (Reuters) -The consolidation of pharmacies and health insurance companies through years of dealmaking has led to a handful of pharmacy benefit managers exercising outsized influence ...
A thermoelectric generator ( TEG ), also called a Seebeck generator, is a solid state device that converts heat (driven by temperature differences) directly into electrical energy through a phenomenon called the Seebeck effect [ 1] (a form of thermoelectric effect ). Thermoelectric generators function like heat engines, but are less bulky and ...
