Steam can provide power through a process called steam propulsion, where water is heated in a boiler to create steam. This high-pressure steam is then directed to turn turbines or pistons, converting thermal energy into mechanical energy. This mechanical energy can be used to generate electricity in power plants or to drive machinery in various applications, such as locomotives and ships. The efficiency of steam power systems has made them a key technology in industrial and energy production settings.
