Answer:
A power plant is an industrial facility that generates electricity from primary energy. Most power plants use one or more generators that convert mechanical energy into electrical energy in order to supply power to the electrical grid for society's electrical needs.
- Alternating current (AC) power is the standard electricity format that comes out of outlets. The name comes from the waveform the current takes. ... The wave-like motion of AC power gives this electricity form an advantage over DC power. Because it moves in waves, this electricity format can travel farther than DC power.
- Direct current (DC) is one-directional flow of electric charge. An electrochemical cell is a prime example of DC power. Direct current may flow through a conductor such as a wire, but can also flow through semiconductors, insulators, or even through a vacuum as in electron or ion beams.
