Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Regeneration is the term used when an induction motor stops functioning as a motor and instead starts functioning as a generator by converting the mechanical energy into electrical energy. This happens when the motor is driven by a force (such as a deceleration of a machine or the action of gravity) that exceeds the motor's normal operating speed, causing it to generate electric power. This electric power can then be either used to power other loads or returned to the power grid.
