My favorite video on the basics of generating electricity:

all electricity in your house is generated from a magnet and a wire

the goal of gas or coal or wood or hydro power plants is simply to move magents past coils of wire or vice versa

my favorite youtube channel for alternative energy is GreenPowerScience

an enjoyable video on Fresnel Lenses and the parabolic power station

any other resources on the basics of making electricity you like (or diy power youtube channels?)
