An AC generator (Alternator). A rotor is turned into a magnet by what is known as 'excitation' current. The rotor then induces AC current in the stator windings as it is rotated within it.
This is AC, due to the fact that the rotor has a north and south pole, which alternately induces current in the stator windings. The exitation current is provided to the rotor via slip rings. Controlling this excitation current will also control the output power by suitable control circuitry.
This is the same principle, whether it is a small domestic generator, a power station, a wind turbine, or a car alternator.

How electricity gathered?
by wires <<>> Electricity is not a collectible commodity. It is generated and distributed as the demand requires. Small amounts of DC electricity can be stored in a capacitor but is not viable as an AC source. Electricity is distributed by wire conductors.
Can you power a light bulb with a piece of carpet?
Nope, Carpet will generate Static electricity and a light bulb needs AC or DC current.
Can solar panels effectively generate electricity through a window?
No, solar panels are not effective at generating electricity through a window. Windows are designed to let light through, but they also block a significant amount of sunlight needed for solar panels to generate electricity efficiently.
Which materials are needed to generate electricity?
wires and batteries and things like lemon juice or lime juice which is acidic
Why is moving water not commonly used to generate electricity?
A lot of water and pressure is needed to create a small amount of electricity. In many places, its not a viable solution.
