Electricity


Electricity

 

People started using electricity from 1887 after Thomas Edison made the first electric lamp and from this invention the world developed. The electricity is a part of our life and it is very important for us and we use it in all times and areas. And now we can’t spend one day without it because we need it in houses and works to complete our works. Since Edison invented the electric lamp the electricity was developing every day and it became simple and easy to use and far from danger. In this essay I am going to write about electricity and what changes that has occurred in the past five years.

First of all, the electricity became faster and intermittently in transferring to reach cities and houses unlike before there were no developed equipments but now there are sophisticated towers which transfer the energy easily without any problem in connections. For short distance they use underground cables to transfer electrical power this way is good because that cables don’t need too much money for maintenance and can’t be damage easily.

Few years ago the prices of using electricity increased in most countries in the world because in some countries they use gas to generate electricity and if the price of gas increased the price of electricity consumption will increase. In these days cars companies try to increase using electricity in the cars and they developed the engines with electricity and try to use electricity instead of fuel because the oil is expensive also the gas. From electricity we can generate other energy which called hydro-electrical and it’s generating from water and in these days they use it too much unlike before. Hydro-electrical is generating by using turbines or building dams in seas and rivers but this way is expensive but it has many benefits for example it doesn’t cases pollution, electricity can be generated constantly and it is renewable. Electrical energy is renewable and the reasons of make people still use it is that it is its friendly and it can be use in many ways

All in all, Electrical energy makes our life easier and no one can live without it because we need it all the time. Generating electricity did change in last few years and it will change in the future and that thing distinguishes electricity to other power energies and we can generate it in different ways.
