Finding this whole thing very confusing so far.

Extend your lines from withing the blue of your power source (always use turbines) until they are inside the blue of the area that needs power. As your neighborhood grows, the power spreads from neighbor to neighbor, so all you need is one touch point and then let the growth of that area spread the power for you.

This is always a good start: Things you should know before launch [Tips & Tricks] : CitiesSkylines

and the wiki has some pretty valuable early game explanations.
