Answer 1

Is that correct

Answer 2

1. Only steam was capable of producing electricity

Answer 3

Apologies for the confusion. The correct statement should be:

1. Only steam was capable of producing electricity

This statement is not entirely accurate. While steam power was an important factor in the development of electricity generation, other sources such as hydroelectric power and later on, fossil fuels, also played significant roles in the generation of electricity.
