Emhlabeni wanamuhla, njengoba izindaba zemvelo kanye nezingqinamba zamandla ziba zimbi kakhulu, ukuthuthukiswa kanye nokusetshenziswa kwemithombo yamandla avuselelekayo sekugxilwe kuwo umhlaba wonke. Amandla omoya namandla elanga, njengezinhlobo ezimbili eziyinhloko zamandla avuselelekayo, abhekwa kabanzi njengokhiye ekushintsheni kwamandla esikhathini esizayo ngenxa yezici zabo ezihlanzekile, ezingapheli, nezinobungani bemvelo. Kodwa-ke, ukuqaliswa kwanoma ibuphi ubuchwepheshe bamandla kubhekana nezinselele ezimbili zokusebenza kahle kanye nezindleko, okuyilapho kanye izishintshisi zokushisa zamapuleti ziqala ukusebenza.

Amandla omoya, aguqula amandla omoya abe amandla kagesi kusetshenziswa izinjini zomoya, aqhosha ngezinzuzo ezinjengokuvuselelwa, ukuhlanzeka, kanye nokuba nezindleko eziphansi zokusebenza. Inikeza amandla ngaphandle kokusebenzisa imithombo yamanzi, iyenze ifaneleke ikakhulukazi izifunda ezinothile ngemithombo yomoya. Kodwa-ke, ukuphumula nokuncika kwendawo kwamandla omoya kunciphisa ukusetshenziswa kwawo okusabalele. Ezimweni ezithile, amandla omoya angahlanganiswa nawoizishintshi zokushisa amapuleti, ikakhulukazi kumasistimu wepompo yokushisa asebenza ngomoya asetshenziselwa ukushisa nokupholisa izakhiwo. Lawa masistimu asebenzisa ugesi womoya ukushayela amaphampu okushisa, adlulise ukushisa ngendlela ephumelelayo ngezishintshisi zokushisa zamapuleti, ngaleyo ndlela athuthukise ukusebenza kahle kokusetshenziswa kwamandla nokunciphisa isidingo semithombo yamandla evamile.

Amandla elanga, akhiqizwa ngokuguqulwa okuqondile kokukhanya kwelanga kube ugesi noma amandla ashisayo, kuyindlela engapheli yokunikeza amandla. Ukukhiqiza amandla e-Photovoltaic kanye nezinhlelo zokushisa kwamanzi ezishisayo zelanga yizindlela ezimbili ezivamile zokusebenzisa. Izinzuzo zamandla elanga zihlanganisa ukufinyeleleka kwawo okusabalele kanye nomthelela omncane wemvelo. Kodwa-ke, amandla elanga aphumayo athintwa kakhulu isimo sezulu kanye noshintsho lwasemini ebusuku, okubonisa ukuphumula okuphawulekayo. Ezinhlelweni zamanzi ashisayo elanga, izishintshisi zokushisa zamapuleti, ezinekhono eliphumelelayo lokudlulisa ukushisa, zisiza ukushintshanisa okushisayo phakathi kwabaqoqi belanga nezinhlelo zokulondoloza, zithuthukise ukusebenza kahle kokushisa kwesistimu futhi zilenze libe yisisombululo samanzi ashisayo esinobungani bemvelo ezindaweni zokuhlala nezohwebo.

Ukuhlanganisa amandla omoya namandla elanga, nokunqoba ukulinganiselwa kwawo, kudinga izinhlelo zokuphatha amandla ezihlakaniphile nezisebenza kahle, lapho izishintshisi zokushisa zamapuleti zidlala indima ebalulekile. Ngokuthuthukisa ukudluliswa kwe-thermal, azithuthukisi nje kuphela ukusebenza kwezinhlelo zamandla avuselelekayo kodwa futhi zisiza ukubhekana nenkinga yokunqamuka kwamandla, okwenza ukuhlinzekwa kwamandla kuzinze futhi kuthembekile.

Ekusetshenzisweni okusebenzayo, ngenxa yokusebenza kahle kokushintshaniswa kokushisa okuphezulu, isakhiwo esihlangene, nezidingo eziphansi zokunakekelwa, izishintshi zokushisa zamapuleti zisetshenziswa kakhulu ezinhlelweni ezihlanganisa nemithombo yamandla avuselelekayo. Ngokwesibonelo, kumasistimu wephampu yokushisa emthonjeni waphansi, nakuba umthombo oyinhloko wamandla izinga lokushisa elizinzile elingaphansi komhlaba, ukulihlanganisa nogesi ohlinzekwa amandla elanga noma omoya kungenza isistimu ivumelane nemvelo futhi isebenze kahle ngokwezomnotho.Izishintshi zokushisa zamapuletikulezi zinhlelo ziqinisekisa ukuthi ukushisa kungadluliselwa ngokuphumelelayo kusuka phansi kuya ngaphakathi kwezakhiwo noma ngokuphambene nalokho.

Kafushane, njengoba intuthuko yezobuchwepheshe iqhubeka futhi isidingo samandla esimeme sikhula, inhlanganisela yomoya namandla elanga nezishintshisi zokushisa zamapuleti kuveza indlela esebenzayo yokuthuthukisa ukusebenza kahle kwamandla kanye nokunciphisa umthelela wendawo. Ngokuklama okusha kanye nokuhlanganiswa kobuchwepheshe, amandla obuchwepheshe obunye bungasetshenziswa ngokugcwele, kuphushele imboni yamandla endleleni ehlanzekile nesebenza kahle kakhudlwana.
