Electricity is one of the oldest Russian technical, theoretical, and scientific-practical journals, and one of the first special electrotechnical journals.

It was founded in 1880 on the initiative of outstanding Russian electrical scientists P. N. Yablochkov, V. N. Chikolev (one of the chief editors), D. A. Lachinov and A. N. Lodygin, United in the VI (electrotechnical) Department of the Imperial Russian technical society. It was published from 1881 in Saint Petersburg, and from 1922 in Moscow.

The first editor is major General A. I. Smirnov.

Published to the present day, with interruptions from 1918 to 1921 and from 1941 to 1943.
