===================================

.. py:class:: edisgo.network.components.Generator(**kwargs)

   Bases: :py:obj:`Component`

   .. autoapi-inheritance-diagram:: edisgo.network.components.Generator
      :parts: 1


   Generator object



   .. py:property:: nominal_power

      Nominal power of generator in MW.

      :param nominal_power: Nominal power of generator in MW.
      :type nominal_power: float

      :returns: Nominal power of generator in MW.
      :rtype: float


   .. py:property:: type

      Technology type of generator (e.g. 'solar').

      :param type:
      :type type: :obj:`str`

      :returns: * :obj:`str` -- Technology type
                * **#ToDo** (*Maybe return 'not specified' in case type is None?*)


   .. py:property:: subtype

      Technology subtype of generator (e.g. 'solar_roof_mounted').

      :param subtype:
      :type subtype: :obj:`str`

      :returns: * :obj:`str` -- Technology subtype
                * **#ToDo** (*Maybe return 'not specified' in case subtype is None?*)


   .. py:property:: active_power_timeseries

      Active power time series of generator in MW.

      :returns: Active power time series of generator in MW.
      :rtype: :pandas:`pandas.Series<Series>`


   .. py:property:: reactive_power_timeseries

      Reactive power time series of generator in Mvar.

      :returns: Reactive power time series of generator in Mvar.
      :rtype: :pandas:`pandas.Series<Series>`


   .. py:property:: weather_cell_id

      Weather cell ID of generator.

      The weather cell ID is only used to obtain generator feed-in time
      series for solar and wind generators.

      :param weather_cell_id: Weather cell ID of generator.
      :type weather_cell_id: int

      :returns: Weather cell ID of generator.
      :rtype: :obj:`int`
