The 'Distributed Energy Sources' ontology module represents the knowledge about Distributed Energy Sources (DERs) reused in most of energy management application contexts: energy generation systems and power plants. This ontology module reuses the knowledge of the 'Device' ontology module.

This class represents phtovoltaic systems. A photovoltaic system, also PV system or solar power system, is a power system designed to supply usable solar power by means of photovoltaics.
PVSystem
This class represets combined heat and power generators. Thes systems use of a heat engine or power station to generate electricity and useful heat at the same time.
This class represents electric vehicles. An electric vehicle, also called an EV, uses one or more electric motors or traction motors for propulsion.
Eletric Vehicle
This class represents any device that produces energy
This class represents devices that generate hidraulic energy
HydroPower Generator
Type of hydroelectric power that typically produces from 5 kW to 100 kW of electricity using the natural flow of water.
This class represetns plants that generate thermal energy
Thermal Solar Plant
A device that generates renewable energy from natural resources such as teh sun, wind and water
Microrenewable
Central heating or cooling system that pumps heat to or from the ground.
GeoThermalHeatPump
This class represents hydroelectric or hydropower plants. Hydropower plants capture the energy of falling water to generate electricity.
HydroElectricPlant
System that generates heat or electricity through solar power
SolarPanel
Facility that generates electricity through wind power
WindTurbine
