electrical grid

An electrical grid is a large network that generates, transmits, and distributes electricity from power plants to homes and businesses. It includes power plants (like coal, gas, nuclear, or renewable sources), high-voltage transmission lines that carry electricity over long distances, and lower-voltage distribution lines that deliver it to end users. The grid operates continuously, balancing supply and demand to ensure reliable power. Its interconnected design allows for efficient distribution, load sharing, and the ability to reroute electricity in case of outages, maintaining a steady and dependable flow of energy to meet daily needs.
