          The amount of panels has been. Unfortunately as always our demand also keep increasing.

        I am still giddy when I think about the way solar panels work. Still feels futuristic to me :3

        You’re right! Sometimes we let the kinetic energy of the liquid water itself spin the turbine, when we’re feeling freaky.

          all of these, and gas turbines too, are synchronous. some wind turbines are almost-synchronous and some use giant inverters which is probably one of bigger mass uses of power electronics today
