ELKTR
THAT'S TRUE, even though the electric light and power
industry in America was called on to produce, in 1942, the greatest
amount of electric power in history 189 billion kilowatt-hours!
And at the same time the average cost per kilowatt-hour to the consumer was lower than ever before!
Not only were all the demands of war plants, military camps, naval stations, and
arsenals met but "there remained 27 billion kilowatt-hours of electrical energy to take
care of .the needs of shops and stores, 30 billion for homes, 13 billion for public trans
portation, street lighting, and other uses.
These are some of the accomplishments of the electric light and power industry and
of the electrical manufacturers who build the equipment used to generate, distribute, and
utilize electricity working together with the teamwork so typically American.
How We Helped
GUESTS AT RANCH
Guests at the Barratt ranch this
we-ek are Jack and Don Cavender
of Portland. They accompanied Bill
Barratt home.. Bill has a 9-day fur
lough which he is spending working
on the ranch. Jack Cavender is a
member of the naval reserve.
POWER GENERATION. More than one
half of all the electric power generated by electric
light and power companies in the U. S. is pro
duced by generators manufactured by General
Electric.
And such has been the improvement in the
efficiencies of turbine-driven generators that if
the electric power used in 1942 had been pro
duced with the machines of 1924, it would have
required more than a million extra cars of coal
and one hundred and forty thousand men just to
dine and haul this extra coal.
POWER DISTRIBUTION. To have ample
power available wherever new war plants have
sprung up requires large and highly efficient
transforming and switching equipment and the
solution of highly intricate engineering prob
lems. General Electric has had a hand, and a
head, in the development and manufacture of
much of this equipment.
POWER UTILIZATION. Building ma
chines, lamps, and appliances that put elec
tricity to work more efficiently in factories
and homes is one of our most important jobs.
The United States has more of these electrical
helpers than any other nation. In 1942, the
average home used twice as much electricity as
in 1930, and in those 12 years the average price
per kilowatt-hour decreased 40.,
Thii it only a tmall part of the itory of America's eleo
trical industry. When the full story becomes history with the
passing of the years, it will reveal a group of men who, with
determination which now seems providential, kept on
co-operatively developing new and better equipment, increas
ing generating capacity, lowering costs, expanding service,
planning always to be ready for the demands of the future. It
will be a story of remarkable vision and courage for it all
had to be planned, and the work started, years ahead of tht
need.
The next time you meet man from your electric terries .
company, be he the local manager, or meter reader, orj
spurred lineman carrying out his assignment in rain, sleet, or j
heavy winds, give him a word of encouragementfor he It
the man who is making it unnecessary for yon to stand in
line for electric power. Gmiral Eltctrie SeiemctaOj, N, Y I
