One hundred and forty years ago, Thomas Edison began generating electricity at two small coal-fired stations, one in London ( Holborn Viaduct ), the other in New York City ( Pearl Street Station ). The early expansion of generation was destined for industry—above all for the conversion from steam engines to electric motors—and for commerce.
