Lighting accounts for about 7% of the total electricity consumed in the US. Since lighting is often far removed from the power source—such as the distance from a power plant to street lamps on a remote highway—a lot of energy is lost during transmission.
在美国,照明约占总耗电量的7%。由于照明通常远离电源——例如从发电厂到偏远公路上的路灯——因此大量的能源在传输过程中会损失掉。
Another challenge facing the grid involves the long-distance transmission of renewable electricity from places that receive a lot of wind and sun to those that do not.
电网面临的另一个挑战是涉及到远距离新兴电流从风和阳光充足的地方到不足的地方的传输。
Smart grid describes a more efficient, less costly method of moving electricity along long-distance transmission lines to local power lines and end-users in homes and businesses.
智能电网用效率更高、成本更低的传输方法——长距离地将电能传输到地方输电线、家庭和企业的终端用户。
