HYDRO new NEW POWER PLANTS cuse ELECTRICITY Hydro is pushing construction to meet the pressing demand for more electricity. The above huge generator will soon pour an addii lional 70,000 horsepower into the Hydro system from the DeCew Falls plant near St. Catharines. Two other larger plants in eastern Ontario, now under construca tion, will deliver 81,000 horsepower next year and 360,000 horsepower by 1951. These two major developments, with the DeCew Falls addi- tion, will provide Ontario with a further badly needed half -million horsepower. The growing output of Ontario's industries and farms benefits everyone but calls for more and more electricity. Even now that the war is over, the demand has not slackened but continues to mount. Hydra's peak load increased by more than 500;000 horsepower over the high- est wartime demand, an increase of 25%. Generating plants take a ,jam long time to build and could not be started during the war. ELECTRICITY Few places in the world have as much electricity available per person as Ontario. However, we must use our electricity sparingly so that all homes, all farm services and all industries will receive their share. Will you do your pari?
