Geothermal does require a generator.
In one method, geothermal energy arrives at the power station in the form of super-hot water coming up through a pipe from deep in the ground. The superheated water is allowed to evaporate, then the high-pressure steam is used to turn electrical generators.
Other geothermal systems use dry steam directly from underground to spin the turbines. A third system, called Binary, uses a second process to transfer the heat to another medium which then turns the generators.
A diesel generator
The purpose of a generator is to generate electricity. An electric generator would be redundant. It would need electricity to make electricity and when there is a power outage there is not electricity.
A generator is a device designed to generate electricity.
Basically to generate electricity of energy.
Falling or flowing water turns a turbine generator, which generates electricity.
Mechanical (generator) and Chemical (battery)
Wind turbines generate electricity by converting the kinetic energy from the wind into mechanical energy using the rotor blades, which then turns a generator to produce electricity.
To generate clocks and to generate power
Fossil fuels are burned to spin a generator which in turn produces electricity.
A paper windmill alone will not generate electricity. To generate electricity, a windmill needs to be equipped with a generator that converts the mechanical energy from the spinning blades into electrical energy.
to generate electricity from a potato1.Insert1 copper nail in the potato 2. insert a zinc nail in the potato 3. skadoosh ! you saved the electricity bill of 0.25 volts
You don't. But you can use the weight of falling water to generate electricity. The water spins a turbine (a type of fan blade), and the spinning turbine turns an electric generator.
