Closeup of an incandescent lightbulb. Caption: a change in the wattage of the lightbulb

Part of the "A 3-D Demonstration" series. Defines electric power and explores in general terms a variety of means by which it is produced, transmitted, and consumed. Discusses energy conservation in relation to power production, transmission, and consumption with a particular focus on the efficiencies and inefficiencies associated with the conversion of electricity to light. Specific modules include Efficiency I: Power Production, Power, Efficiency II: Power Transport, Power Transmission, Power Consumption, Inefficiency I: The Light Bulb, and Inefficiency II: The Fluorescent Bulb. Correlates to all National CTE Organizational Standards (including the provisions of the Perkins Act).
