EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the early 20th century and witness the engineering marvel that once lit up the City of Lights. This photograph showcases the immense Fly-wheel dynamo at St. Denis station in Paris. In January 1908, eight such dynamos were installed at the station, each producing a high tension current of 2250 volts and 210 amps. The fly-wheel, measuring a substantial twenty-one feet in diameter, was a crucial component of these dynamos. The St. Denis station, located on the northern outskirts of Paris, was a significant hub in the city's electrical infrastructure. These dynamos played a vital role in the import and distribution of electrical power, providing energy to the growing metropolis. The fly-wheel's impressive size and intricate design are a testament to the technological advancements of the era. Its large diameter and heavy weight allowed it to store energy and maintain a consistent power output, ensuring a stable electrical supply to the city. This photograph, taken in the 21st century, offers a glimpse into the rich history of Paris's electrical past. The St. Denis station's fly-wheels may no longer be in operation, but their legacy continues to inspire awe and admiration for the ingenuity and innovation of the past. This image is a historical record of an important moment in the development of Paris's electrical infrastructure, and a reminder of the technological advancements that have shaped our modern world.
