abstract:
Transition from steam to electric power, and the search for the best of several possible solutions, was a challenge for the countries that undertook it. What made this transition possible was the commitment of the engineers of the time, the companies they worked for and the governments who believed, although among many difficulties, in this idea. An important photographic archive masterfully illustrates this evolution.
