List Of Power Stations In New Hampshire
This is a list of electricity-generating power stations in the U.S. state of New Hampshire, sorted by type and name. In 2020, New Hampshire had a total summer capacity of 4,478 MW through all of its power plants, and a net generation of 16,351 GWh. The corresponding electrical energy generation mix in 2021 was 56.5% nuclear, 25.6% natural gas, 6.7% hydroelectric, 5.9% biomass, 2.9% wind, 1.6% coal, 0.4% petroleum, and 0.3% non-biogenic waste. During 2019, New Hampshire had two of the three coal power plants, and one of two nuclear power plants operating in New England. More electricity was generated than was consumed in-state. Renewables sources generated 17% of all electrical energy from New Hampshire. Wind generated more electricity than coal for the first time in 2016, while the state did not yet host a utility-scale (larger than 1 MW) solar power plant as of 2019. Smaller-scale solar, which includes customer-owned photovoltaic panels, nevertheless delivered an a ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Electricity-generating
Electricity generation is the process of generating electric power from sources of primary energy. For utilities in the electric power industry, it is the stage prior to its delivery (transmission, distribution, etc.) to end users or its storage (using, for example, the pumped-storage method). Electricity is not freely available in nature, so it must be "produced" (that is, transforming other forms of energy to electricity). Production is carried out in power stations (also called "power plants"). Electricity is most often generated at a power plant by electromechanical generators, primarily driven by heat engines fueled by combustion or nuclear fission but also by other means such as the kinetic energy of flowing water and wind. Other energy sources include solar photovoltaics and geothermal power. There are also exotic and speculative methods to recover energy, such as proposed fusion reactor designs which aim to directly extract energy from intense magnetic fields generated ...

Energy Information Administration
The U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) is a principal agency of the U.S. Federal Statistical System responsible for collecting, analyzing, and disseminating energy information to promote sound policymaking, efficient markets, and public understanding of energy and its interaction with the economy and the environment. EIA programs cover data on coal, petroleum, natural gas, electric, renewable and nuclear energy. EIA is part of the U.S. Department of Energy. Background The Department of Energy Organization Act of 1977 established EIA as the primary federal government authority on energy statistics and analysis, building upon systems and organizations first established in 1974 following the oil market disruption of 1973. EIA conducts a comprehensive data collection program that covers the full spectrum of energy sources, end uses, and energy flows; generates short- and long-term domestic and international energy projections; and performs informative energy analyses. ...

Watt-peak AC
The nominal power is the nameplate capacity of photovoltaic (PV) devices, such as solar cells, modules and systems, and is determined by measuring the electric current and voltage in a circuit, while varying the resistance under precisely defined conditions. The nominal power is important for designing an installation in order to correctly dimension its cabling and converters.Die Verwirrung um das Watt-Peak The confusion around watt-peak, 14 August 2009. The peak power is not the same as the power under actual radiation conditions. In practice, this will be approximately 15-20% lower due to the considerable heating of the solar cells.

GE Wind
GE Wind Energy is a branch of GE Renewable Energy, a subsidiary of General Electric. The company manufactures and sells wind turbines to the international market. In 2018, GE was the fourth largest wind turbine manufacturer in the world. History Enron Wind acquisition era (2002-2015) The entity was created as developer (not manufacturer) Zond in 1980 by James G.P. Dehlsen, who also formed Clipper Windpower in 2001. Enron acquired ''Zond'' and the German manufacturer ''Tacke Windtechnik'' in 1997. In 2002, while gas turbine sales were declining, GE acquired the Enron Wind, the only surviving US manufacturer of large wind turbines at the time, during the bankruptcy proceedings of its parent, Enron. GE increased engineering and support for the Wind Division and doubled its annual sales to $1.2B in 2003. By acquiring ''Zond'', GE gained a very important patent for variable-speed systems (), which had a major impact on the North American market. Enron had continued productio ...

Jericho Mountain
Jericho Mountain, also known locally as Black Mountain, is a mountain in Coös County, New Hampshire, in the United States. It has an elevation of . Description Jericho Mountain is flanked by Mount Forist to the northeast, and to the southwest by Sugar Mountain and the Crescent Range. Jericho Mountain is within the city limits of Berlin, the settled part of which lies to the east, where many views of the mountain can be obtained. History The Abenaki people called the mountain ''Miccasadenauk'', meaning "mountain with a black summit", which gave way to its original English name, "Black Mountain". The Abenaki name, and ultimately the English one, may have came about due to the mountain's long history of forest fires, the trees being destroyed leaving a rocky summit blackened by ash. The last of these great fires occurred in 1903. In 1935, the United States Forest Service requested the United States Board on Geographic Names to rename the mountain to distinguish it from six oth ...
