A payload bay is where cargo is stored, like on a space mission to the ISS.
The primary power source is solar power from the large arrays connected to the station. There are also two backup generators and smaller fuel cells for various experiments.
Those huge flat rectangular panels full of solar cells sticking out on each side of the ISS are. They convert sunshine into electrical energy.
526,000 gallons of super-chilled liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen propellant.
No one truly "owns" the ISS, but 6 different space agencies work on the ISS
