A new electric power plant is begun. This year the construction budget of the Georgia Power Company is the largest in its history — $61^ million. Why? Everyone is using more electricity— in homes, stores, factories and on the farms. There is plenty of power for them to use, and there is plenty more on the way. For example, construction will be continued on Plant McDonough, a 500,000-kilowatt, steam-electric generating station near At lanta. When completed in 1964, this plant v/ill produce enough electricity to serve about 540,000 homes. Existing power plants are being expanded. New ones are being planned. Construction every year includes many substations and hundreds of miles of transmission and dis tribution lines. It all adds up to the kind of electricity you want — abundant, dependable and at a price lower than ever.
