Do you know how electricity can be made?

An electric generator works with both electricity and magnetism to make electricity from the movement of coils of wire within the magnetic field of a permanent magnet. In one type of generator, an energy source like falling water (Niagara water falls) is used to turn large wheels that turn large coils of wire within the magnetic field of a permanent magnet shaped like a horseshoe. This causes a current of electricity to run through the coiled wires. The current is directed and send through wires to the lights and other things powered by electricity. So if your lights go out, you could use another energy source like water, sun light, or wind (not electricity) to run a wheel that would turn coils of wire within the magnetic field of a permanent magnet which would create a current of electricity in the wires for your lights. The only problems are that you would have to figure out how to keep the wheel turning at a consistent rate (keep turning fast enough to create just enough and not too little or too much electricity) and how to hook up the coils of wire to your lights.
