ENERGY CAN BE GENERATED ONLY AS A ALTERNATIG CURRENT.THERE IS NO WAYS OF GENERATING ENERGY AS A DC DIRECTY.IN CASE OF DC GENERATION ,AC IS GENERATED FIRST AND THEN RECTIFIED INTO DC. TO UNDERSTAND THIS CLEARLY YOU NEED TO KNOW THE WORKING OF GENERATORS. THE REASONS FOR GENERATING ENERGY AS AC IS ENERGY CANNOT BE GENERATED AS DC.
In 1895, the first large-scale power plant using alternating current (AC) was opened by the Westinghouse Electric Company, led by George Westinghouse. This facility was built at Niagara Falls and marked a significant advancement in electrical engineering, enabling the transmission of electricity over long distances. The success of this plant helped establish AC as the dominant form of electrical power distribution.
My husband said without hesitation AC!! DC power comes from batteries, AC power comes from electricity((generating power))....
!! In india and most of the other countries user ac current. Hence, all the appliances are ac dependable. So generating ac directly would allow up to directly feed the appliances without any converter circuit.
Generating Capacity : Power plant has very high generating capacity as compared to gen set.Size of the equipment : Size of the alternators are compatibly very big in Power plants.Type of Prim-over : In Power plant turbine is used to for prime over or to provide mechanical power to rotor of the alternator whereas in generating set diesel engine is used for prim-over.
Electric current from a generating plant is typically alternating current (AC), which flows back and forth in a rapid and regular manner. This AC current is then transmitted through power lines to homes and businesses for use in electrical appliances and devices.
It is alternating current (AC). AC is used because it is easy to transform the voltage up for transmission over long distances, and down again for consumers.

the oldest track is Wirral ac and is over 100 years first built in 1911.
NO, generator always generating AC current,when commutator is used,at that time AC is converted in DC.and due to this generator is called dc generator.
The lower the frequency, the larger the generating equipment must be.
David Sarnoff. chairman of RCA. Wrote far reaching proposal for "radio music box:" Westinghouse - George Westinghouse founded this company. In 1880s, responsible for building the world's first commercial AC system (Ames Hydroelectric Generating Plant)

Tesla with Westinghouse made the first hydro plant in the Niagara. The water moved the turbines and the AC motors delivered the electricity.
because its use formula from his father's law..
A sub woofer speaker is not a current generating device.
