Electric Superhighways

We’re going to take a trip on the “electric superhighway” to find out how “green power” gets to your home.  Pssst… I’ll let you in on a little secret… it’s not really any different than the path electricity made from fossil fuels takes.  It still travels on those big transmission lines, to get from where the electricity is made to where it is used.  Join Autumn as she follows the electrical current from a power plant, a wind turbine, and a hydro plant, all the way to your home.
