Energy transmission and distribution refers to the process of delivering electrical energy from the place of production to consumers. This process consists of a series of steps, starting from the production of electrical energy, transmission, distribution and finally reaching the consumer. Here are the outlines of this process:
Distribution Networks: Electrical energy is transported to consumer areas through a network of distribution lines and transformers located in cities and towns. Distribution networks often include cables and poles located underground or overhead.
Electricity Transmission: The generated electrical energy is generally transmitted to long distances via high-voltage transmission lines. High voltage helps minimize energy lost during transmission. Transmission lines are usually constructed using metal poles and cables.
Electricity Distribution: Electrical energy, reduced to low voltage levels, is delivered to cities, towns and industrial facilities through distribution lines. At this stage, energy is transmitted to local distribution networks after transformer stations.
