2. List of largest power stations in the United States - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_largest_power...

   The power generating facility with the largest annual net generation (actual electricity put out to the power grid) is Palo Verde in Arizona with 31,629,862 MWh in 2021. [3] The second and third largest were Browns Ferry and Peach Bottom with 31,053,552 MWh and 22,268,244 MWh, respectively. All three of these are nuclear power plants, and eight ...

3. Free-piston linear generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free-piston_linear_generator

   The free-piston linear generator (FPLG) uses chemical energy from fuel to drive magnets through a stator and converts this linear motion into electric energy. Because of its versatility, low weight and high efficiency, it can be used in a wide range of applications, although it is of special interest to the mobility industry as range extenders for electric vehicles.

4. 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 ...

5. Honda Civic GX - Wikipedia

   Height. 56.5 in (1,435 mm) The Honda Civic GX is the only car factory-built to run on compressed natural gas (CNG) in the United States available to non-fleet customers. [1] The GX was based on the Honda Civic and available for fleet sales in all 50 states. It was previously available for retail sales in four states ( California, New York, Utah ...

6. Electric generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/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 turbines, water ...

7. Gas-fired power plant - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas-fired_power_plant

   A gas-fired power plant is a type of fossil fuel power station in which chemical energy stored in natural gas, which is mainly methane, is converted successively into: thermal energy, mechanical energy and, finally, electrical energy. Although they cannot exceed the Carnot cycle limit for conversion of heat energy into useful work, the excess ...
