Islanding

Islanding is when a little piece of land, like an island, is still getting electricity from a power source, even if the main power grid is not working. It's like when you can still play with a toy even if all the other toys in the room are broken. The island might be getting its power from a generator or a battery or some other source. This can be important for places that are far away from the main power grid or that need to be self-sufficient in case of an emergency, like a hurricane or earthquake. Think of it like a little island being its own superhero and having its own special power to stay running even when everything around it is down.
