From 1953 through 1958, kilowatthour sales to ultimate consumers grew at an average of 6.1 percent a year. For the next five year period ending in 1963, that figure moved up to 6 .9 percent. And for the past five years, sales have averaged an annual 7.8 percent gain. This growth in growth- 6.1 to 6.9 to 7.8 percent- is due to a combination of our own marketing efforts and one of the finest service areas in the country. We do not know how to weigh the separate effect of each of these factors, but we like the result. 1953 1958 1963 1968 I 1968 HIGHLIGHTS I Average Change Annual Change 1968 Since 1967 Since 19631 Net Income on Common Stock $125.6 million up 0.6 3 up 6.9 3 Earnings per Share $2.99 up 0.3 3 up 6.7 3 23 Cash Dividends Paid per Share . $2.20 up 4.8 3 up 13.0 3 2 Electric Operating Revenues $745.3 million up 8.2 3 up 5.8 3 Average Residential Revenue• 2.56¢/Kwh down 1.9 3 down 1.9 3 5 6 Residential Heating Charge . 1.09¢/Kwh down 7.6 3 down 2.6 3 Sales to Ultimate Consumers 39.

  • Insull and the Chicago Edison Company
    Global Strategies and National Performance: Explaining the Singularities of the Spanish Electricity Supply Industry1 Francesca Antolín In this article I compare the trajectories of two pioneers, contemporaries who were leaders of the electricity industry in their respective countries: Samuel Insull, who led the U.S. Chicago Edison Company, and Juan Urrutia, creator of Hidroeléctrica Ibérica in Spain. The Chicago Edison Company was the world leader in managerial strategy and design, in the application of new technology, internal management, commercial policy, and in the establishment of a framework for relationships among firms, financial systems, and administration. Hidroeléctrica Ibérica was created in 1901, shortly after major advances in long-distance electricity transportation, for the purpose of exploiting hydro- electricity resources. It immediately established itself as the leader of Spain’s electricity sector, and remains a leader in the twenty-first century through the ambition of the initial project, the quality of the resources, and its strategies on various fronts. My purpose is to reflect on both the demand and the supply side of the complexities of the evolution of large technological systems, which are subject to a wide variety of influences. I explore the degrees of freedom that remain open to a follower who adapts strategies to special circumstances once a world leader has shown the way. I examine differences in context and their consequences for the economic logic Urrutia applied when making policy decisions that seem to differ from the best entrepreneurial practice of the period as defined by Insull. The electricity supply industry, intensive in capital, technology, and management, appeared around the end of the nineteenth century.

Electric Restructuring - Late 1990's Starting in the 1990's many customers became interested in shopping for their own electric supply.

  • 1 Interview with Loyola University Professor Harold Platt for Program Two: “Electric Nation” Note: This Transcript Is from A
    Interview with Loyola University Professor Harold Platt for Program Two: “Electric Nation” Note: This transcript is from a videotaped interview for the “Electric Nation” segment of “Great Projects.” It has been edited lightly for readability. Harold Platt: In 1929, Samuel Insull was one of the most famous men in America. He had arrived here in 1880 as a secretary for Thomas Edison, an immigrant, young immigrant from England. And during that time, ‘til 1929, he had fulfilled the American dream and more, rising up to become the head of the largest utility company in America, Commonwealth Edison, and a vaster empire of holding companies of utility companies across America that apparently controlled about one-eighth of the electricity in the entire country. He was famous because he was so outspoken as the leader of the electrical utilities industry and he was outspoken as a great leader of Chicago. HP: In 1892, Samuel Insull faced a big decision. Two of the largest companies making electrical equipment joined together as General Electric. Sam Insull was heading the manufacturing arm of Edison's company up in Schenectady, New York. And under the new merger plan, he would have ended up as second vice president or third in charge of the entire General Electric company. This was quite a prestigious position but not the top man. At the same time, Chicago Edison a fledgling little electric company in Chicago was searching for a new president, and Insull as Edison's point man in selling central station service was familiar to the Chicago businessmen. They asked Insull for advice as to who they should ask to be the next president, and instead he put his own name forward.
