plant:source plant:method Description

nuclear

fission plants using fission to produce heat, steam and then electricity
fusion plants using nuclear fusion to produce heat and then electricity

wind

wind_turbine Wind turbine

hydro

water-storage plant producing electricity with turbines fed by water coming from a lake behind a dam.
Note: Power plants in Switzerland must have a storage capacity of at least 25% of the average expected winter production, otherwise they are plant:method=run-of-the-river plants.
water-pumped-storage plant producing electricity like plant:method=water-storage and additionaly able to pump water from a lower lake to the storage lake when needed.
run-of-the-river plant producing electricity with turbine using stream of a river (with no storage dam)
Note: Power plants in Switzerland having storage dams with a capacity less than 25% of the average expected winter production are plant:method=run-of-the-river plants.
