READ MOREAlessandro Volta invented the electrical battery. Volta''s invention is a very significant part of the history that lead to the technology we use today. Modern batteries are more efficient, but use the same principle as Volta''s first batteries, or voltaic piles as they became known. Volta was born on February 18th 1745 in Como Italy.
