  • Abstract
    Major power outages in various parts of the world have cast doubt on the electric power industry´s claimed readiness for deregulation. Here, the author argues that, in the next few years, as service areas expand and bulk transfers of power grow ever greater, the electric utility industry´s main technological challenge will be to maintain the reliability that customers now take almost for granted
