Detailed explanation-1: -Albert Einstein did not invent electricity. Electricity was understood by American polymath Benjamin Franklin during the 18th century, though it was described earlier than that by William Gilbert in 1600, and the first battery, like the ones in use today, was developed by Alessandro Volta in 1800.
Detailed explanation-2: -However, while Einstein is known as a great theoretical physicist, few possibly knew that he had more than 50 patents in his names and in several counties.
Detailed explanation-3: -Einstein’s researches are, of course, well chronicled and his more important works include Special Theory of Relativity (1905), Relativity (English translations, 1920 and 1950), General Theory of Relativity (1916), Investigations on Theory of Brownian Movement (1926), and The Evolution of Physics (1938).
