Homes warm and bright. Industries efficient and
productive. Hospitals with the machines to sustain life.
Computers . . . transportation systems . . . business
machines . . . work saving devices ... all run by electrical
energy for your benefit.
Will there be enough electricity? Yea. As long as there
is a way to create heat, there will be a way to provide
electricity. So, as we reach the limit of one resource such as
natural gas, we begin the effective use of another abundant
resource . . • coal.
It is estimated America’s coal deposits will last for
centuries. Think of it this way: America has more coal than
the Arab nations have oil.
In the power plant OG&E is building in Muskogee,
low-sulfur coal will be used to create heat. This plant will be
equipped with environmental control devices including
electrostatic precipitators. This equipment removes particulate
matter produced by burning coal.
While this coal is being used, research will continue to
discover other ways to create electricity from the burning of
trash to the use of trapped solar heat.
Today's energy needs and tomorrow's increased needs
must be met for you. OG&E is working to do just that with
new and existing facilities. Civilization grows as the use of
electricity opens new areas for progress. On this beautiful
blue planet of ours we face, not the end of energy's natural
resources, but the dawn of a new energy era. An era made
possible by our ability to produce enough electricity to
supply whatever your future needs may be. At OG&E we get
down to earth by assuring you this . . . your future
looks electric.
