There are several types of generators, electrical generators, vapor generators, motion generators (also called motors).
Let us concentrate on electrical generators used to transform some natural energy (e.g. chemical energy in oil, kinetic energy of a cascade, chemical energy in methane, thermal energy in solar light etc..) in electrical energy that can be transmitted on long distances via electric trunks.
The main parameters of such a generator are
- Efficiency: that is what percentage of the incoming natural energy is transformed in electrical energy (ranging from 3-35% of oil based generators to 20 % in nuclear generators)
- Dimension: that is how much energy per hour (measured in MW/h or GW/h) is obtained from the generator;
- Generated pollution (that can be measured in many ways depending on the generator: Co, CO2 and heavy pollution for oil based systems for example)
