What is powering the Voyager 1? It has been travelling in the space for almost 50 years.

Inertia!
It got off to a good start with a big-ass rocket.
Then, it stole a little momentum from a couple of planets in our solar system.
Probably picked up a tiny amount of acceleration from the solar wind from our sun.
It’s been cruising ever since.
Edit: whoops, looks like I misunderstood the question. My answer relates to its velocity, not its onboard power.
