In 1888, it was renamed as <i>Allgemeine Elektricitäts-Gesellschaft</i>. Initially producing electrical equipment (such as light bulbs, motors and generators), the company soon became involved in AC electric transmission systems. In 1907, <a href="/wiki/Peter_Behrens" title="Peter Behrens">Peter Behrens</a> was appointed as artistic consultant to AEG. This led to the creation of the company's initial <a href="/wiki/Corporate_identity" title="Corporate identity">corporate identity</a>, with products and advertising sharing common design features.<sup id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The company expanded in the first half of the 20th century, and it is credited with a number of firsts and inventions in electrical engineering. During the same period, it entered the automobile and airplane markets. Electrical equipment for railways was produced during this time, beginning a long history of supplying the German railways with electrical equipment. According to the 1930 <i><a href="/wiki/Encyclopedia_Britannica" class="mw-redirect" title="Encyclopedia Britannica">Encyclopedia Britannica</a></i>: "Prior to 1923 it was the largest electrical manufacturing concern in Germany and one of the most important industrial undertakings in the world."<sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>During the <a href="/wiki/World_War_II" title="World War II">Second World War</a>, AEG joined with other large companies such as <a href="/wiki/IG_Farben" title="IG Farben">IG Farben</a>, <a href="/wiki/ThyssenKrupp" title="ThyssenKrupp">Thyssen</a> and <a href="/wiki/ThyssenKrupp" title="ThyssenKrupp">Krupp</a> in their support of the Nazis.

The company experienced financial difficulties during the 1970s, resulting in the sale of some assets. In 1983, the consumer electronics division <i>Telefunken Fernseh und Rundfunk GmbH</i> was sold.
