The invention that contributed most significantly to the increase of industry in cities in the late 1800s is electric power. While water power was crucial in earlier industrial developments, the widespread adoption of electric power transformed cities and industries by enabling the operation of machinery and factories, improving production efficiency, and allowing for extended working hours.
