power distribution
Energy routing network
Power distribution is the system or process of delivering electrical power from generation sources to end users.
It encompasses the infrastructure—substations, transformers, power lines—that steps down high-voltage transmission power to usable levels for homes and businesses: The storm damaged power distribution across three counties.
More broadly, power distribution can refer to how authority, resources, or influence are allocated among parties: The treaty altered the power distribution in Europe.
