“John Kohls and I
want to talk to you about
your electric bill
and conservation.”
Today’s tight power situation continues to call
for energy conservation and points up the need for
new generating plants like Centralia and plants
under construction such as Trojan, Jim
Bridger and others.
These new plants mean higher power costs.
And...a new impact on your electric bill.
In the past, the average price you paid for power
declined as you used more electricity.
This reflected our costs. As a matter of fact,
the price of residential power to our
customers declined about 35 percent
from 1940 to 1968.
By Frank Stromquist
“Contrary to recent reports,
coffee drinking is not a risk
factor for myocardial infarc­
tion, according to Dr. Arthur
Klatsky and colleagues at
Kaiser-Permanente Medical
Center, Oakland, Calif.
“Drooping smokers — those
who keep cigarettes dangling
from their mouths between
puffs—inhale extra amounts
of tar and are more likely •
to develop chronic bron­
chitis than “normal” smok­
ers, says Dr. J. Rimington,
St. Thomas’ Hospital, Stock-
port, England.
New technology, larger,
more efficient power plants,
and improved operating
methods had a lot to do
with the descending price.
But... in the last few years,
the cost of new plants has skyrocketed.
And there are four basic reasons why. 1973
1. Our rivers are delivering about all the firm
electrical energy they can. From here on out,
it’s new steam plants with high operating costs.
2. Money costs have gone out of sight. And interest
and other money costs are the largest
single element in power costs.
“Merck Sharp & Dohme and
Merrell National Labs ap­
plied for federal licenses to
produce a new vaccine
against meningitis for civil­
ians, developed by the army
and tested at U of Conn.
3. Essential pollution control equipment has added
20 percent to the construction costs of new steam plants.
“Prostin F2 Alpha, Upjohn’s
first prostaglandin drug to
terminate pregnancy during
the third to sixth months,
will be marketed in the U.
S. by year-end. says Dr.
David Weisblat, vice-presi­
dent.
4. Inflation.. .which has hit everyone... has
really whacked your utility in the vital area of
construction costs. As an example, new steam
plants are costing three to four times more per
kilowatt compared to 15 years ago.
What does this mean? The cost of power at
Centralia, at Trojan, at Jim Bridger and other
scheduled plants will generally exceed the
revenues they will produce at present
rate schedules.
So with growth in demand...the upward pressure
on our electric rates becomes overpowering.
Is there anything you can do to dampen this
upward movement?
Yes.
How? By extending the everyday
conservation measures you are
taking during the current
critical energy period
into the coming
months and
years.
In short...by making energy conservation a
routine part of our daily lives.
,
We see no way of keeping your electric rates
1 from moving up. But with continuing energy
< conservation.. .together we can keep them
from going through the roof.
