It’s big news these days in newspapers and magazines and on television.

The production capacity or capability of electric generators and the power required by electric appliances or equipment are measured in kilowatts. One thousand kilowatts make one megawatt.

The total amount of electricity required by customers at a given instant or averaged over any designated period of time. The primary source of demand is the power con suming equipment of the customers. Demand is mea sured in kilowatts. Consumption. The total electrical energy used during a given period of time. Consumption is measured in kilowatt-hours. Fuel adjustment. A charge which directly reflects in creases or decreases in the cost of fuel used to generate electricity. The fuel adjust ment recovers the cost of generating electricity only and does not include any profit for the company. Fossil fuel generating plant or generating station.
