Power use up
Pennsylvania Power &
Light Company reports that
residential electricity use in-
creased by 8.9% in Febru-
ary 1975 over February a
year ago. The amount of
kilowatt hours going to com-
mercial customers rose
12.3% while industrial us-
age for the month gained
3.7% compared to a year
ago.
The figures indicate a re-
turn to significant electricity
growth levels, said Herbert
D. Nash, PP&L’s vice presi-
dent of Consumer and Com-
munity Service. “Even
though notable decreases in
electricity use were regis-
tered last year following the
oil embargo and a concert-
ed energy conservation ef-
fort, further electricity sav-
ings have been slowly flat-
tening out. It’s not that our
customers aren’t still try-
ing to reduce their usage. . .
it’s because new growth fac-
tors have emerged,” said
Nash.
Work will be stopped on
certain portions of the Sus-
quehanna nuclear plant un-
til newly identified safety
design considerations have
been resolved, Pennsylvania
Power & Light Company
announced.
