Morphology
regeneracy = regenerate (semi-transparent) = re + generate + cy
The connection to 'regenerate' is clear, but '-cy' is an uncommon noun-forming suffix, so the exact abstract noun meaning is not maximally obvious.
Etymology
Regeneracy comes from the parts re- 'again' and generate 'to make', so it means the process of being 'made again' or renewed. That's why we use it for the recovery of a damaged place or system, like a city that comes back to life after an earthquake.
