industrial power
Economic production capacity
Industrial power refers to a nation's or region's capacity for manufacturing and production.
A country with significant industrial power can produce goods at scale—steel, vehicles, electronics—giving it economic and often military strength.
The term also describes the literal energy that drives factories: The plant runs on industrial power from the grid.
An industrial power (as a noun phrase) is a nation whose economy centers on manufacturing: Germany emerged as an industrial power in the late 19th century.
