Although factories do not shut down merely on getting the "alert," they have to do so when the roof spotters signal that, the raiders are overhead. But instead of the boilers blowing off their steam Into :the air whetv Work stops, hte steam is generated, into the accumulators and stored, to be used to start up the plant again whenwthe raiders have passed. More than a thousand of these ac- cumulators have now been installed in iron and steel works, sugar refill- .eries, breweries, dairies, clyeworks and...laundries, All act on the same principle—the storage of energy dur- ing off-peakload periods, and the callisg into action Of this steam when Production requires it, In one sugar refinery the installs 11o0 of a\ steam •accumulator raised production by 12 per, cent. and low- ered coal consumption by. about 7 per cent. In a dairy the time taken to produce condensed milk was reduced by 20 to 25 per cent.
