"Electrlc Power in Prince Ed- ward Island" was the subject of an interesting address at the Char lottntown Rotary Club luncheon yesterday by Mr. Gordon Milligan, general manager of the Maritime Electric Compnay.

This Province, Mr. Milligen said, enjoys the “rather doubtful dis- tinction" of being perhaps the only one in Canada where resources for the generation of electric power are virtually non-existent. No large hydroelectric: sites are available and no deposits of fuel. neither coal. oil. or gas. have become evid- ent as yet. Great distances from any cheitp sources of power make the cost of wheeling power into the lsland over transmission lines

merit is used for various illnesses. but is not so definite in its results as shock.

Some mental illnesses need more study to find their cure—study of bodily c h e n g e s, psychological changes environmental changes: other illnesses are still obscure and until lately little money and time were available to carry on re- search. The next_ few years should bring out new and greater know- ledge regarding mental illness and its treatment.

IDISCIISSES PROBLEM OF ELECTRIC POWER SUPPLY IN THIS PROVINCE.

so costly as to be uneconomical. A largly rural economy with no large industries are factors in the high unit cost of distribution.

However, despite these obstacles. central station power has been made available to the populated areas of the Province and to-day there exists a network of trans- mission and distribution lines ex- tending virtually from one end of the Island to the other, totalling In excess of 800 miles. and from which extensions can be readily made to serve those areas not at present enjoying central station power. .

“High costs in the production and distribution of electricity," Mr. Milligan said. “make it essential that power generating agencies in this Province produce and diatri- hute electricity with no frills, but in such a manner as to give ade- quate service to the customer in order that a kilowatt hour may be delivered to his premises at the lowest possible cost. The benefit of keeping the cost of a kilowatt hour low, enures to the benefit of both the customer and the sup- ply agency in that lower cost an- ables the customer to extend his hours of use of electricity, which in turn increases the amount of electricity produced. which in turn

7.

again tends to lower the unit

COSL. INCREASED COSTS

“That this in effect has been accomplished is made evident by the fact that despite the infrartion- ary trend of the dollar over the last ten years. a ‘omestic customer. for instance. in Charlottetown, is paying on the average only 8/100 of a cent more per kilowatt than he did in 1943, it hardly perceptible increase. This has been accompl- ished in face of increased costs as follows:

"Coal — from 1943 to 1953 in- creased from $6.40 to $13.26 a ton, just double. Items commonly used in power line construction have all increased, some of them several 100%. An 18 inch machinetbolt for instance, increased from we to 54¢ between 1943 and 1954. A six foot cross arm increased from $1.52 to $4.22 over the same period. A com- mon size of weather-proof copper wire increased from 26c to 53c per pound; and so on through virtually

all the items used in the produc-.

tlon and distribution of power. Considering the fact that the pur- chasing power of the dollar is virtually at a 50c level. in respect of other manufactured articles we might presume then that the real cost of electricity to the customer Is about 1/, its 1943 level.

"This has been accomplished in three different ways:

"iii The installation of more efficient generating equipment

-—-Barter’s Film Lab.

“(2) The fact that I portion at the power is being distributed avg equipment installed at the old dollar value.

"l3) Increase in load and in use per customer which generally tends to lower unit cost. For in- stance. we ‘sold in 1958 three times the kilowatt hour: to just over twice the number -of customers that we supplied in 1943.

PUBLIC UTILITIES COMMISSION

“While we are discussing coat of power. it is opportune to mention and pay tribute to the members of the Public Utilities Commission. Judge Trainer, Chairman of the Commission, spoke to this group a few weeks ago and discussed the works of his Board.

"I would like to pay tribute to the very fair-minded attitude of the Commission in their dealing: with the power distribution agen- cies. In order to have a health) industry. a fair return on invested capital is necessary; on the other hand. the consumers’ interest must be protected and the Public Utilities Commission functions in these respects, to ascertain that charges for electrical energy are fair and just. and that no exploits- tion or discrimination exists. The Public Utilities Commission rules with aolomon-like fairness in these matters.
