When costs go up,
solving the problem isn’t
easy for TP&L
Texas Power & Light Company’s costs
of bringing you dependable electric
service have risen drastically In recent
years. And, they're still going up
For example, TP&L uses thousands of
racks... a small but essential piece
of hardware which is attached to poles
as a support for power lines In 1952,
the price of a rack y#as only 49«
Today, the price is $1.00.
In 1952, TP&L spent about $23 million
on new generating plants, lines and
other facilities needed to produce and
supply electric power. In 1972,
construction costs amounted to *'
almost $110 million. This increase was
brought about partly by the increasing
demand for electricity and partly by
inflation. In recent years,
environmental and esthetic
considerations have added new costs.
Power plant fuel, a major cost item to
TP&L, has gone up in price more than
500% since 1952.
Texas Powef & Light, and mpst electric
utility companies, have a solid history
of keeping electric rates as low as
possible, consistent with good service.
In fact, the average cost per
kilowatt-hour for residential electricity
has dropped from about 4C in 1952 to
about 2® in 1972.
However, if reliable electric service is
to be provided in the future, rising
costs must eventually bd passed on Irr^
the form of increased rates to the
consumer.
