Aladdin was a Lucky Fellow!
• Aladdin and the genie of his magic lamp could produce anything desired
•. . no scarcities . . . no delays. But when it comes to building new Hydra
generating plants to supply Ontario's ever-growing demand, lack of building
materials is proving a problem for which Hydro has no magic cure.
Demand for electricity is growing faster than new power plants can be
built. It takes a staggering amount of concrete, steel, lumber and electrical
equipment to build a new power development. It all has to be shopped for,
delivered to the job and assembled. A difficult task in these days of short
supply.
To provide everyone with all the electricity they might like to use during
fall and winter months would require new generating stations equal to about
one-fifth of Our present total supply of over 2,600,000 horsepower. Construction
on these and other Hydro projects has been under way for a long time, Your
Hydro is pushing them just as fast as materials can be obtained aiming to
do in 5 years what would normally take 7 years. One will start delivering
70,000 horsepower this fall. Another 81,000 horsepower in 1948. By 1950
the huge Ottawa River development will start to pour its 360,000 horsepower
into the Ontario Hydro system.
Few places in the world have as much electricity available per person as
Ontario. However, we must conserve our electricity so that new homes, farms
and industries will all receive their share; so that the wheels of our factories
will be kept turning and maximum employment and production maintained
USE HYDRO WISELY and there will be enough for all. •
