Increased Productivity Can Lead

To Lower Costs At Federal

Hydroelectric Plants



On the basis of cost per unit of electricity
produced, a selected group of private hydro-
electric power plants are more efficient than a
comparable group operated by the Federal
Government. Had these Federal plants been
run as efficiently, they could have saved at
least $11.7 million in annual operation and
maintenance costs.

Using automation and remote control at
Federal hydroelectric plants, where feasible,
would yield substantial savings and increase
productivity. In addition, use of mainte-
nance  management information systems
would further enhance plant productivity by
assessing the performance of plant mainte-
nance programs.

This is one of a series of reports comparing
the per unit cost of Government services with
the  cost of similar private sector
services.
