Power Plants

Power plants are facilities that generate electricity for homes, businesses, and industries. They convert various energy sources, such as fossil fuels (coal, natural gas), nuclear energy, or renewable sources (solar, wind, hydro) into electrical power. The process typically involves converting energy into heat, steam, or mechanical motion, which then drives turbines connected to generators. These plants are crucial for maintaining the energy supply on power grids, ensuring that electricity is available when needed. Each type has its advantages and environmental impacts, influencing how we power our world sustainably for the future.
