Abstract

THE integrated Southern Company System, consisting of Alabama Power Company, Georgia Power Company, Gulf Power Company, and Mississippi Power Company, has had in operation an “incremental cost of power delivered” computer since June 1954. This analogue type of computer quickly determines the incremental percentage of power delivered from each source, as selected, and simultaneously calculates the incremental cost of power delivered from any particular generator.
