That this is true canbe easily seen by assuming any one classof consumers discontinued; also by thefact that investment, maintenance, proportional to demand of California, where we store water forthree to four months, the energy chargeswill be between and cents perkilowatt-hour, as shown above. Calcula-tions made in Figs. 2 and 3 show it isnot equitable to distribute power at thesubstation to the different classes at thesame cost per kilowatt-hour; in fact, itcan be clearly shown that discriminationwill result from such a practice to thedetriment of the powerbusiness, with the resultthat the entire businesswill suffer and the light-ing rates must increasebecause the power busi-ness will not deyelop.
