How does energy get from a power plant to your home?

Energy gets from the power plant to customers via the power grid (high voltage power lines).Transmission lines that generally operate at high voltages are responsible for long distance delivery of electricity. Substations step the voltage down to deliver it locally, and Transformers further step down the voltage to deliver it to the customer.Note: There are no energy transformations invloved in this process. The power plant (whatever kind it might be) produces electricity (electromagnetic energy), and this is delivered to a user via the power grid. For energy transformation in power plants, refer to those specific questions.

How does a thermal plant work?

A thermal power plant is where electricity is produced by steam turning turbines which drive generators. The steam can come from burning any kind of fuel, namely, fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas), or nuclear fusion. It can also come from renewable energy (solar, geothermal, ocean thermal, biomass and biofuel).
