-Technical Disadvantages
Edison highlighted the technical limitations of AC at the time, such as energy loss over long distances.

-Financial Tactics
Edison tried to secure exclusive contracts with cities and companies to use DC, making it difficult for AC to gain traction.
Despite Edison's efforts, AC eventually won the "War of the Currents" due to its technical superiority and ability to transmit power over longer distances with less energy loss. Today, AC remains the standard for electric power distribution worldwide.
