Non-captive power generation refers to the production of electricity by a power plant or generator that is not exclusively meant for self-use by the company or industry that owns it. Instead, the power generated is supplied to the grid or sold to third parties, such as other businesses, residential users, or power distribution companies.
In contrast to captive power generation, where the power plant is set up to meet the energy needs of a specific business or facility, non-captive power plants are typically set up as commercial ventures to generate and sell electricity as their main business.
Key Characteristics of Non-Captive Power Generation:
Electricity is sold to external consumers or the main grid.
Operated mainly by independent power producers (IPPs).
Subject to government regulations and power purchase agreements (PPAs).
Can include sources like coal, gas, hydro, solar, or wind.
Example:
A company builds a solar farm and sells the electricity it produces to a state electricity board or other businesses — this is non-captive power generation.
Let me know if you want a comparison chart between captive and non-captive power generation!
Voltages matchIn phaseGenerator should be spinning slightly faster than the synchronous speed of the gridThe second and third criteria are typically measured by a Synchroscope - see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SynchroscopeFor more information on Power Generation, please visit http://www.powergeneration.edu.au
A non projective drawing is a form of objective drawing. Projective drawings reveal the underlying personal structure of an individual.
I am not sure what exactly you mean by "reactive power" (I guess you mean electrical reactive power), but power is the ratio of energy for a period of time. So that makes power (and reactive power as well) a scalar, since you can describe it with only one number. The fact that electrical reactive power is drawn on a XY plane, should not confuse you.

horse power
Industries have their own DG sets to generate power in case state power is not available. This power generators are known as captive generation
1. Meaning of Captive Power Plant Captive Power Plants are power plants including Generation Sets, normally established by an industry to meet its own requirements.

It seems there might be some confusion here. As mentioned, "captive power" refers to power generation set up by an organization for its exclusive use. The term "captive load" is not commonly used in this context. If you're referring to something else, feel free to clarify, and I'd be happy to help further!
it refers to the generation from units setup by the industry or its exclusive consumption
i think it has to do with off grid electricity generation
When there is a huge demand of power and people feel generating electricity is cheaper than purchasing it, Captive power plants are made. Excess generation of CPP can be sold through grid. On the other hand Independent power plants are made for supplying to grid only.
Some types of non-polluting power generation include solar power, wind power, hydroelectric power, and geothermal power. These sources generate electricity without emitting greenhouse gases or other pollutants that harm the environment.
Captive sourcing refers to sourcing form the firm's own production facilities located abroad ,while non-captive is from different firm facilities
yes South Africa will rely more on non-conventional energy for the provision of power in the future in order to protect and preserve the environment for the future generation
Captive breeding is when a zoo or wildlife preserve will breed endangered animals or non endangered to help them survive.
The basis of differentiation is end user. A thermal power plant produces electricity to sell the same to different end users through grid. But, in case of a captive thermal power plant generation of electricity generally is to meet the demand of power by the parent industry. For e.g. an Alumunium smelter plant requires huge quntity of elctric energy to operate. To secure undisrupted source of energy it may set up its own power plant which in turn can be termed as the captive power plant. But, in certain cases excess electricity can be sold to the market.
