Explain why the voltage at a generating power station must be stepped up to very high value for long distance transmission

Explain why the voltage at a generating power station must be stepped up to very high value for long distance transmission

At high voltage current is low; this reduces the power loss in the wires

i.e. power loss = I²R where I is the current
