electric power generation

Electric power generation is the process of producing electricity from various energy sources. It typically involves converting energy from natural resources, like fossil fuels (coal, gas, oil), nuclear reactions, or renewable sources (solar, wind, hydroelectric) into electrical energy. Power plants use turbines driven by steam, water, or wind to turn generators that create electricity. This electricity is then transmitted through power lines to homes and businesses, providing the necessary energy for lighting, appliances, and other electrical devices. Sustainable practices are increasingly vital to reduce environmental impact and ensure future energy availability.
