Energy is absorbed from current (power = voltage * current, and anything that absorbs power will decrease the voltage). But the current itself still flows in a complete loop no matter the load.

What is electricity, and how does it work? What does it mean for electricity to seek a path to ground? These answers and more, plus a brief history of the War of the Currents, inside.

A weird phenomenon in which electricity flows like water was spotted in a nanowire made of "strange metal" — a bizarre metal phase that has stumped physicists since it was discovered 40 years ago.

The electrical resistance of a circuit component is defined as the ratio of the applied voltage to the electric current that flows through it, according to HyperPhysics, a physics resource website ...

The latest greatest utility-scale battery storage technology to emerge on the commercial market is the vanadium flow battery - fully containerized, nonflammable, reusable over semi-infinite cycles ...

Flow meters are used to measure the rate of flow of liquids or gases, just like electric meters measure the amount of electricity consumed.
