To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
From 1913 to 1920 the average horsepower used in California grew from 301, 000 to 549, 000, as each year during the last five years the demand has averaged more than a 10 per cent increase over that of the previous year. In 1920 the peak load on the plants of the California power companies was some 893, 000 horsepower, with the plants in the northern portion of the state carrying a load which left them no margin of safety whatever. The com- panies in the south had a slight surplus, but taking t...he two together the peak could be met only by using all available equipment to a much higher degree than is nor- mally safe in operation. This 893, 000 horsepower of 1920, then, can be taken as the maximum peak capacity of the plants in existence at that time, and the rate of growth for the past five years 10 per cent as the normal growth. In the fall of 1920 there were under construction in the state, plants which would increase the generating capacity about 386, 000 horsepower. By August of this year, when the peak load period for 1921 is reached, some 190, 000 horsepower will have been added to the capacity available in 1920, and the peak capacity of the intercon- nected companies will be approximately 1, 083, 000 horse- power.
