Abstract
The economic location of steam-electric generating stations is receiving intensified study, not only because of the tremendously increasing demand for electric energy, but because of changes that have taken place and still are occurring in the relative effect of certain primary controlling factors. These include changes in the relative effects of 1. Location and cost of alternate fuel supplies. 2. Cost of transporting alternate fuels. 3. Cost of transmission of electric energy.
