To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The risk to the investor on account of the greater initial cost and higher fixed charges is, therefore, much greater for the water power plant than for the steam plant. Moreover, in case of failure there is a greater salvage in the steam plant. The land and buildings may be abandoned and used for other purposes, for they are generally located near the point of utilization or in a city, whereas a water power plant, like a railroad, can only be used for the purpose for which it was designed and c...annot be abandoned and given up to some other use. The investor in a water power plant must, therefore, be prepared to face fixed charges of from two to five times that of a steam plant per horse power; and this of itself would be sufficient to deter investors from entering this field unless favorable conditions should exist both as to development and utilization and freedom from undue interference by public authorities. Furthermore, as already stated, the initial development in a water power plant must be greater relatively than in a steam plant.
