  • Abstract
    Starting with a power requirement of 225 megawatts at Oak Ridge during the war, the Atomic Energy Commission´s demands on the suppliers of power will be approximately 6,500 megawatts. How the problems raised by these unprecedented demands are being solved is a tribute to American engineering talents.
