The electric grid is so big and complex that it needs whole buildings full of people and machines to control it. Those groups are called grid operators. A grid operator is a bit like a high-tech traffic cop. It makes sure power goes from electricity producers (known as generators) to where people will need it.
READ MOREAn electrical grid (or electricity network) is an interconnected network for electricity delivery from producers to consumers. Electrical grids consist of power stations, electrical substations to step voltage up or down, electric power transmission to carry power over long distances, and finally electric power distribution to customers.

READ MOREHydrogen production is an interesting alternative of storing energy. Electrolyzers produce hydrogen through water electrolysis; the resulting hydrogen is later used to generate electricity by using fuel cells, that reverse the process. Electrolyzers use rectifiers to convert the grid ac voltage into dc voltage for supplying the electrolyzer cells.
