Answer:

Electric power first saw commercial use in the 1870s. The commercial distribution of electric power started in 1882 when electricity was produced for electric lighting.

In the 1880s and 1890s, growing economic and safety concerns lead to the regulation of the industry.

Thomas Edison (U.S.) opened the Pearl Street Power Station in New York City. The Pearl Street Station was one of the world's first central electric power plants and could power 5,000 lights.
