Basically, two things determine your cost for
electric service: the amount you use and the price of
each unit-called a “kilowatt-hour"-of that amount.
From 1963 to 1973, the average annual use by
TP&L residential customers increased from 4,446
kilowatt-hours to 10,282 kilowatt-hours. You’ll
probably find one or more reasons for your greater
usage in the answers to several questions.
Is your family group larger than it was ten years
ago? Have you added a room to your home or moved
into a larger home? Have you acquired one or more
new major appliances, such as a food freezer, range,
washer, dryer or air-conditioner?
Speaking of air-conditioning, this is the time of
year when many central systems, window units, attic
fans, etc. are operated day and night. Air-conditioning
alone can account for a sizeable increase in your
electric bill.
As already mentioned, increased usage has been
the main reason for increased cost. This tends to
disguise the fact that the average per-unit price of
TP&L residential electricity was about 2% cents in
1963 and only about 2%4 cents in 1973.

This time each year we
begin getting those beautiful
picture post cards from rela-
tives and friends that we hear
from only at Christmas or the
ones who want to rub it in by
their affluence.
The inscription, "Having
a good time; wish you were
here” is a little misleading.

What the writer really means
is, “Havinga good time; wish
you were here and I was at
home”.
Anyway, we appreciate
those reminders whjde’we stay
here and endure the Texas
sunshine in July which is not
the most pleasant weather
we could think of. One con-
solation is that August is
usually a little bit hotter than
July, normally, and it’s been
hot in July and August for a
long time.

We'd like to tell you that the price will continue
to go down, but, unfortunately, this will not be the
case. In early 1972, and again in March of this year,
the rising costs of producing and supplying electric
power made it necessary for TP4L to obtain increases
in the price of electricity. Additional increases are
certain to be needed in the years ahead. It's the only
way we can continue to provide the dependable
electric service you want and expect. /
