sähköverkkoprosessi
Sähköverkkoprosessi refers to the entire chain of activities involved in the delivery of electricity from power generation to end-users. This process encompasses several key stages. First, electricity is generated at power plants using various sources like fossil fuels, nuclear power, or renewables. The generated electricity is then transmitted through high-voltage power lines over long distances to substations. At substations, the voltage is reduced to lower levels suitable for distribution. From these substations, electricity travels through distribution networks, typically lower-voltage lines, to reach homes, businesses, and industries. Throughout this process, grid operators monitor and manage the flow of electricity to ensure stability and reliability. This involves balancing supply and demand in real-time, addressing faults or outages, and planning for future network needs. The sähköverkkoprosessi also includes aspects of metering, billing, and customer service, ensuring that consumers are accurately charged for their electricity consumption. Technological advancements are continuously being integrated to improve efficiency, enhance grid resilience, and facilitate the integration of distributed energy resources.
