The price of electricity
must continue to go up,
Texas Power & Light wants
its customers to know why.
Since TP&L began operation
almost 65 years ago, provid-
ing dependable electric ser-
vice at a fair price has been a
constant aim.
ask its customers to pay more
for their electricity. The aver-
age per kilowatt-hour price
rose from about 2 cents in
1971 to about 4 cents in 1976.
One measure of accom-
plishment of this aim is the
fact that today, the average
price of each kilowatt-hour of
electricity supplied to resi-
dential customers is about the
same as it was in 1951.
In 1963 and 1965, TP&L made
the eleventh and twelfth gen-
eral reductions in the price
since it began operation. The
average price of residential
electricity dropped from
about 4 cents per kilowatt-
hour in 1951 to about 2 cents
per kilowatt-hour in 1971
In the 1970-1975 period,
TP&L’s annual expenditures
for constructing generating
plants, transmission lines and
other facilities increased from
$98 million in 1970 to $268
million in 1975. These ex-
penditures are expected to be
several billion dollars in the
next 10 years.
Fuels used to produce elec-
tricity cost $26 million in 1970
and $147 million in 1975. The
cost of fuels will be almost
$200 million in 1976.
Costs of producing and sup-
plying electric power began
to go up at an unprecedented
rate in the early 1970’s In
1972, 1974 and again in 1975,
it was necessary for TP&L to
Texas Power & Light will con-
tinue its efforts to provide you
and all of its customers with
dependable electric service
at the lowest possible price
