A power plant can supply a factory along cables or overhead lines. In that case the electric power produced from a primary fuel in the power plant has to travel along the cables to the factory. That is how electric power travels.

A piece of theory by J.H.Poynting published in the 1890s showed that the power travels in the electric and magnetic fields surrounding the wires according to electromagnetic theory. This has never been demonstrated by experiment but it is entirely consistent with the laws of nature as expressed by J.C.Maxwell in his 'Treatise on Electricity and Magnetism' on which electrical theory and engineering is based.

The power plant generates electricity by burning fuel or using a nuclear reaction to produce heat, which is used to create steam. The steam powers a turbine connected to a generator that produces electricity.
