  • Abstract
    Believed to be the world´s largest electric power generating unit, the 475,000-kw Unit 1 at the Breed Plant has gone into commercial operation. The plant, owned and operated by Indiana & Michigan Electric Company of the American Electric Power System, is located in Sullivan County, Indiana On the basis of present technology and economics, the relative importance of the chief sources of electric energy in future years is predicted. It is strongly believed that nuclear energy will perform its best function for our society if it is allowed to find its natural economic place in the total energy picture
