Timeline of electricity adoption

This is a timeline of electricity adoption.

How the timeline was built
The original version of the timeline was written during May 12–24, 2017. At the end of May, the timeline was still in draft form. On June 8, some minor polish was applied so that the timeline was at a "first published version".

What the timeline is still missing
More events in general. I only went partially through Hannah, Hausman, and Hughes. (Page numbers give a general idea of how far I got in each.)

The US and UK have more events in the timeline so far. There are probably a lot more interesting events in Germany, France, Russia, Japan, etc.

Big picture also has holes in the periods where I wasn't able to read into as much.

Timeline update strategy

 * Fill in missing stuff from above.
 * Read around on Wikipedia to find more topics or clusters of topics (e.g. something like big dam buildings, except that's already in the timeline).
