The background of rising costs in the production, transmission, and distribution of electric power and energy is discussed and, in particular, the significant increases in the cost of generation. It discusses the adverse annual load pattern experienced by Buckeye Power, Inc. and the electric water heater control program of load management adopted by Buckeye to fight the rising costs of providing electric service.
