Abstract
A method is presented for interrelating the total annual energy requirements, annual energy sales by classes, and annual peak loads of electric power systems as a possible basis for improving the timing of generating capacity additions as compared with the results obtained by methods now generally used; for example, forecasting future loads, where predictions frequently deviate widely from subsequent experience.
