Nikola Tesla: The Niagara Falls Project That Powered Modern Civilization
The brilliant mind of Nikola Tesla still leaves people breathless who take a deeper interest in his character and work. He managed to realize his visions from his childhood, about a big wheel driven by water, just at Niagara Falls. In this way, the largest hydroelectric power plant in the world was created in the 19th century. Tesla's polyphase system won a convincing victory over the proposed direct current systems, thus achieving a big step towards the development of modern civilization and the use of renewable energy sources.
