20555 Re:

Consumers Power Compa (Midland Plant, Units 1 and 2)

Docket Nos. 50-329, 50-330 Gentlemen:

As counsel for Consumers Power Company in the con-struction permit and operating license proceedings for the Midland Plant, we are advising the respective Atomic Safety and Licensing Boards and parties of new electric demand forecast information.

In December, 1978, Consumers Power, in accordance with its policy of revising forecasts on a regular basis, adopted a new long-term forecast of electric demand.*

The new official forecast predicts average compound increases in the Company's electric power peak demand of 3.4 percent annually in the period 1979-1988, and 3.2 percent annually in the years 1979-1992.

The corresponding figures in the September, 1978 interim update forecast were 3.6 per-cent per year and 3.3 percent per year, respectively.

• The previous forecast, adopted in September, 1978, was an interim update of the January, 1978 long-term forecast.

The results of the interim update were reported to the appro-priate Nuclear Regulatory CoTmission tribunals and parties in a letter from Michael I. Miller dated October 18, 1978.

page 2 February 15, 1979 The projected peak demand for electricity in the years 1981 and 1982 (the years in which the two units of the Midland Plant will come on line) increased slightly in the The new figures are 5150 MW in 1981 and latest forecast.

5320 MW in 1982; the previous estimates were 5130 and 5310, respectively.

The next regularly scheduled revisions to Consumers electric demand forecasts will occur in August or Powers' September, 1979, when the short-term forecast is revised and 1979, or January 1980, at which time the Company's in December, long-term electric forecast will be revised.
