Best Answer

The electric generator was first made in 1790 by a man named Aloisio Galvani. Over the years, scientists improved the practical and theoretical parts of the equipment. In 1831, another man (named Michael Faraday), discovered the operating principal of electromagnetic generators. The principle is now called Faraday's Law.

The first workable units though for generating power were created by Nikola Tesla. He is created with the creation of alternating current, which requires a method of creation. He is also credited with the creation of the motor which is very similar in construction to the generator.
