umbilo wokugcina amabhebhe omkhulu
Ukugcinwa kwamabhethri okuvuselelekayo kuyisixazululo esiphambili ekuphatheni amandla kwanamuhla, okwenza kube ibhuloho elibalulekile phakathi kwemithombo yamandla avuselelekayo engapheli kanye nezidingo zamandla eziqhubekayo. Lezi zinhlelo ezithuthukile zibamba amandla angaphezu kwavamile akhiqizwa emithonjeni evuselelekayo njengama-solar panel nama-wind turbines, ziwagcine ngendlela ephumelelayo ukuze zisetshenziswe kamuva lapho izinsiza zemvelo zingasatholakali. Lobu buchwepheshe busebenzisa amakhemikhali amabhethri athuthukile, ngokuvamile kusetshenziswa amabhethri e-lithium-ion, ama-flow battery, noma ukucushwa okuthuthukile kwe-lead-acid, ngayinye eyenzelwe izinhlelo zokusebenza ezithile nezindawo. Lezi zinhlelo zihlanganiswa kahle nengqalasizinda yamandla ekhona, enezakhiwo zokuqapha ezihlakaniphile ezenza kube lula ukuphatha amandla ngesikhathi sangempela nokwenza kahle. Izixazululo zesimanje zokugcina amabhethri avuselelekayo zihlanganisa izinhlelo ezithuthukile zokuphatha ukushisa, eziqinisekisa ukusebenza kahle ezimweni ezihlukile zemvelo. Zingasebenza kokubili ezikhungweni ezincane nezindawo zokuhlala ezincane, zinikeza izinketho eziguquguqukayo zokusebenzisa. Lezi zinhlelo ngokuvamile zihlanganisa imishini yokuguqula amandla, izinhlelo zokuphatha amabhethri, nokulawula okuhlakaniphile okwenza kusebenze ngokuzenzakalelayo nokulawula okukude. Njengoba zinamandla okwanda asukela kuma-kilowatt-hours ambalwa kuya kuma-megawatt-hours amaningi, lezi zixazululo zokugcina amandla zilungele izidingo ezahlukahlukene zamandla, kusukela emakhaya ngamanye kuya ezikhungweni zezimboni.
