Electrification

Electrification is a way to make things work using electricity. Electricity is an invisible energy that we can control to power things like lights and phones. Electrification means we can use this energy to do a lot of cool things like turn on lights and fans, start cars, and make gadgets like phones and computers work. In the past, things were powered by burning fuel like coal, but now we can use electricity to power machines and make things easier.
