Who invented hydro-electric power? Lester Allan Pelton was an American inventor who created an efficient form of impulse water turbine in 1878 in the goldfields.    In 1887 a miner attached Pelton's wheeâ¦l to a dynamo and produced the first hydroelectric power in the Sierra Nevada Mountains.
Origin of Electrical Power. The era of large-scale electric power distribution arguably began on August 26, 1895, when water flowing over Niagara Falls was diverted through a pair of high-speed turbines that were coupled to two 5,000-horsepower generators. The bulk of the electricity produced at about 2200 volts and used locally for the manufacture of aluminum and carborundum.
