Technology | |||
Your choices are... | |||
Wind Turbines | Wind turbines create electrical power from wind. They convert the kinetic energy from wind into mechanical power that can be used to turn a generator. | ||
Photovoltaic (PV) and Solar Power Systems | PV and solar power systems convert light into electricity. | ||
Hydro Turbines | Hydro turbines are used to transmit mechanical power and produce electricity. Hydro turbines convert water pressure into mechanical shaft power that can be used to drive an electricity generator, grind a mill, or move some other device. | ||
Flywheel Power Systems | Flywheel power systems are high-speed, bore-loaded, carbon fiber flywheel rotors with an integrated iron-less generator inside a sealed, vacuum housing. They store energy mechanically in the form of kinetic energy. | ||
Other | Other unlisted or proprietary technologies. | ||

Standard/Certifications | |||
Your choices are... | |||
ASME | The power generator is ASME certified. | ||
CSA | Products that bear a CSA Mark have been tested by the Canadian Standards Association (CSA) and meet applicable standards for safety and/or performance. These standards are written and administered by organizations such as the American National Standards Institute (ANSI), Underwriters Laboratories (UL), and CSA International. CSA Marks may appear alone or with indicators. CSA Marks that appear alone are used with products certified primarily for the Canadian market, to the applicable Canadian standards. CSA Marks that appear with the indicators “C” and “US” or “NRTL/C” are used with products certified for both the U.S. and Canadian markets, to the applicable U.S. and Canadian standards. | ||
IEC | The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a global, non-profit organization that develops and maintains voluntary quality, safety, and performance standards for electrical materials, products, and systems The IEC also publishes standards for the electronics and telecommunications industries. The IEC’s membership consists of the electrotechnical standards organizations from each of its 51 member nations. The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) represents the United States. | ||
IEEE | The power generator is IEEE certified. | ||
NFPA | The power generator is NFPA (National Fire Protection Association) certified. | ||
RoHS Compliant | Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) is a European Union (EU) directive that requires all manufacturers of electronic and electrical equipment sold in Europe to demonstrate that their products contain only minimal levels of the following hazardous substances: lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyl, and polybrominated diphenyl ether. RoHS became effective on July 1, 2006. | ||
UL | Underwriters Laboratories (UL) is a non-profit organization that tests components, systems, and materials according to its published standards for safety. Products that receive UL approval bear a UL Mark. | ||
WEEE Compliant | Waste Electrical and Electronics Equipment (WEEE) is a European Union (EU) directive designed to encourage the reuse, recycling and recovery of electrical and electronic equipment. WEEE is also designed to improve the environmental impact and performance of this equipment. The WEEE directive establishes requirements and criteria for the collection, treatment, recycling and recovery of electrical and electronic equipment. It also makes producers responsible for financing these activities. Retailers and distributors must provide a way for consumers to return used or obsolete equipment without charge. | ||
