Existing Potential
Markets for Power
The power requirements of the country, as they exist today,
are only a little more than half supplied electrically.
The total of primary power installed in the United States is
put at 70,285,100 horse power, divided as follows:
ELECTRIC (including electricity supply stations, electric
railways, privately owned plants and isolated farm plants)—38,-
757,300 horse power.
NON-ELECTRIC (including manufacturing plants, mines
and quaries, and stationery form power)—31,527,800 horse power.
The non-electric power already installed is divided as fol-
lows:
In manufacturing plants—13,367,900 horse power.
In mines and quarries—3,859,900 horse power.
On farms (stationary)-—14,300,000 horse power.
From the above statistics it is evident there is a great field
ahead for further development of the electric industry.
This is
the first of a series of articles on information to our customers
and residents on the past experiences and future possibilities of
the electric industry.
