Hydroelectricity

 

 
 The First Major Hydro-Electric Power Plant In The World
 
 
Nikola Tesla designed the first hydro-electric power plant in Niagara Falls.  This was the final victory of Tesla's Alternating Current over Edison's Direct Current.  This is the interior of Power House No. 1 of the Niagara Falls Power Company (1895-1899)
 


Tesla Monument at Niagara Falls (Victoria Park) unveiled on July 9, 2006.  Tesla is standing atop an AC motor, one of the 700 inventions he patented.
