AEG, short for Allgemeine Elektricitäts-Gesellschaft, was a German electrical equipment manufacturer founded in 1883 by Emil Rathenau in Berlin as the Deutsche Edison-Gesellschaft, which took the AEG name in 1887. It began with electric lighting and grew into one of the largest electrical manufacturers in Germany. In transport it mattered as a supplier of railway electrification: AEG was involved in developing and making the electrical parts of almost all German electric locomotive series, and many steam locomotives were also made in its factories. In 1931 it acquired the Borsig locomotive firm and moved locomotive production to the AEG-Borsig works, called Borsig Lokomotiv-Werke, from the Borsig plant in Tegel. After the Second World War the company lost its businesses in eastern Germany, and in 1985 the remainder was acquired by Daimler-Benz. Its railway business became part of Adtranz in the 1990s, AEG was formally dissolved in 1996, and the brand is now owned by Electrolux.
