Science illustration of the power grid and community electrical network. Power stations, wind farms and solar panels generate electricity that is then distributed via high voltage power lines. Using underground cables instead of overhead cables could prevent power outages caused by extreme weather and wildfires. Other smart features shown in this 3d infographic are sensors to help bypass electrical outages, community micro-power generation, and renewable energy like wind and solar. Created for Science News Magazine feature art, this 3d illustration shows what a resilient, smart grid looks like: system redundancy using sensors to help bypass outages, micro-power generation, renewable energy.
