He built steam engines.
Are steam engines still being used?
Steam engines presently produce more power than all other types of engines combined. Most steam engines take the form of the steam turbine engine. The steam turbine is responsible for generating about 86% of the electric power used on this planet. Reciprocating steam engines are still in use for limited applications, but are generally considered obsolete. Steam engines, either the piston or turbine type were used on most big ships until recently, and there are still a few steam locomotives about.

Where did James Watt invent steam engines?
He did NOT invent the steam engine. He improved it in two ways. 1) He investigated why early steam engines were so inefficient, and how to cure that problem. 2) He developed rotative motion so that the previous engines, which were purely reciprocating steam-pumps for mines, could be made to drive factory machinery. He was the technical one of the business partnership with Matthew Boulton, a machinery manufacturer based in Birmingham (English Midlands).
