TP&L Plans
New Facilities
Texas Power & Light plans to
spend $313,519,000 for the
construction of new facilities in
1976, J. F. Skelton, TP&L
president, announced.
The construction budget is
the largest in the Company's
64-year history, and expendi-
tures will be necessary for TP&L
to keep pace with the growing
electrical demands of customers
in its 51-country service area.
During 1976. TP&L will
continue construction of num-
erous power plants designed to
reduce the company’s reliance
on natural gas as a boiler fuel.
Because of dwindling natural
gas supplies, TP&L is now
focusing on other fuel sources-
lignite and nuclear--for future
. electric power production.
The Comanche Peak nuclear
plant now under construction
near Glen Rose will consist of
two 1,150,000-kilowatt gen-
erating units and will be owned
jointly by TP&L, Dallas Power &
Light Company and Texas
Electric Service Company. The
first unit is scheduled for
operation in 1980, and the
secotfd in 1982. The companies
also will build a 3,200-acre lake
at the plant site. Lake water will
be used for cooling purposes.
A nuclear plant produces
electricity the same way a
conventional plant does. The
heat source is the only dif-
ference since nuclear fission
produces the heat which turns
water into steam. The steam
spins the turbine, which in turn
spins the generator, to produce
electricity.
