Abstract

THE twentieth and last annual report of the Central Electricity Board has recently been published (Whitehead Morris, Ltd., 72–78 Fleet Street, London, E.C.4. 1s. net). Just short of attaining its majority, the Board loses its identity in the infant British Electricity Authority, this sturdy infant inheriting the Grid system of some 150 generating stations, capable of an output of nearly 12 million kilowatts. Appropriately appearing at about the same time as this report is an interesting and informative paper dealing with the British grid system ("Load Dispatching and the British Grid System"— A. R. Cooper, Institution of Electrical Engineers, March 18, 1948), a paper which is wider in scope than its title might suggest.
