The Economics of Hydro-Electric Development
The main question involved in the consideration of any proposed hydroelectric development is: Can energy be supplied from the proposed development to a market at such times, in such quantities, and at such prices, that it will command the market and assure a suitable return on the total cost of the development. The answer to this question depends on .a multitude of factors any one of which may be so unfavorable as to require a negative answer or, if overlooked, to result in the failure of the project.
These factors must be sub-divided, in order fully to cover the numerous questions which must be considered for a full analysis of any project. This has been attempted in a fairly complete manner in Appendices A, B, and C.
