For almost 66 years,-Texas Power & Light Company
has provided dependable electric service in North,
Central and East Texas. From 1943 to 1972, the
average price paid by residential customers for
each kilowatt-hour dropped from 5 cents to just a
little more than 2 cents.
But, in the early 1970’s, the skyrocketing cost of
natural gas began to drive the cost of electricity up.
TP&L began building plants which use lower-cost
lignite coal and nuclear fuels.
The tremendous cost of these plants and other
necessary facilities is the reason the base price
of electricity has gone up in recent years and the
reason we’re asking for a rate increase now.
Even so, the total price of electricity supplied by
TP&L will continue to be lower than if lignite were
not steadily replacing gas. In 1977, lignite saved the
average residential customer more than $46.00.
We’re working to keep your electric service
dependable and the price as low as possible.
