power delivery
Getting electricity there
Power delivery refers to the system or process of transferring electrical power from a source to components that need it.
In computing and electronics, power delivery describes how a device supplies voltage and current to processors, graphics cards, or connected peripherals: The motherboard's power delivery determines overclocking stability.
USB power delivery is a charging standard allowing higher wattages through USB connections.
In broader contexts, power delivery encompasses electrical grid infrastructure that moves electricity from generating stations to end users.
