How can the transmission loss as heat be reduced?

Answer:
To reduce energy loss, electricity generated in power stations is raised to a very high voltage for transmission. A high transmission voltage means only a relatively small current flows through the transmission cables. As you know, current produces heating effect when flowing through the cables with resistance.

Ohmic loss refers to Joule heating loss when electricity encounters resistance in transmission line conductors. ... Since losses scale with the square of a wire's current, keeping voltage high (and current low) helps reduce losses.
