Remote area power supply

Remote area power supply is a way of providing electricity to places that are far away from conventional electricity sources, like power lines.

Electricity is made when a power plant creates energy that is sent down power lines to people's homes and businesses. But in remote areas, there may not be power lines nearby. Instead, remote area power supply systems work by using solar panels, wind turbines, small hydro turbines, and sometimes diesel generators to create electricity, without being connected to power lines.

Solar panels soak up the sun's rays, turn them into electricity and store the energy in batteries so that it can be used later when the sun is not shining. Wind turbines use the wind to turn a propeller and create electricity. Small hydro turbines use fast-moving water to turn a turbine and create electricity. Diesel generators use gasoline or diesel fuel to run a small motor and generate electricity.

With these different types of power sources, energy can be created and stored in batteries to provide reliable and clean power to people living in remote areas.
