2.In 1971 the Company entered into a sale and lease-back agreement for twenty five duai fuel combustion turbines -

which requires annual payments of $5,731,000 for the ten years beginning in 1972 ind $7,924,000 for the r remaining 15 years of the term. Also the Company pays all the expenses in connection with the leased turbines i and has options to repurchase the turbines at stipulated purchase prices after the first ten years. The Company is accruing amounts representing ratable portions of the deferred lease payments net of salvage over the estimated ut:ful lifa of the turbines as rent expense and long-term debt. Such accounting treatmeat is presently under consideration by regulatory authorities, and no determination has yet been made with respect thereto.

3 For income tax purposes the Company depreciates property acquired after 1969 on an accelerated basis with

! normalization accounting using the shorter " class lives' as ptovided by the Intemal Revenue Code. In ace.ardance j

with the Revenue Act of 1971, the Company receives the 4% investment tax credit on qualifying property additions which is being deferred and amortized on the Company's books ove the depreciable lives of the -

related property, i 4.In June 1971 the Company sold its holdings of the capital stock of a non. affiliated company at a gross gain of -

$2,383,000 or $1,594,000 after income taxes (5( per share of common stock).

Transmission Growth New and Expanded Industrial Plant Growth The first segment of the Compan{s planned 480 MILLloNS oF DOLLARS structure miles of 525,000 solt transmission circuit was placed in service in June. This segment, which 568' interconnects the McGuire Substation near Char-lotte with Appalachian Power Company in Vir-sss9 ginia, is a little over 80 miles. An additional 32.5-mile segment was completed in 1971 between the McGuire Substation and Newport, S. C., and a 46-o mile section from Newport to Rockingham, N. C.,

is 75 per cent complete. This latter section will in-terconnect with Carolina Power and Light Com-pany.

Expenditures during 1971 for transmission lines, substations and related facilities totaled S78 mil-lion. This included 825 miles of new and uprated transmission circuits resulting in a net addition of 508 circuit miles. l Transformer capacity was increased by 3.6 mil-lion kva in 1971 with the addition of 169 new or uprated substation facilities. Planned expenditures for 1972 for transmission lines and substation ad-ditions of 573.1 million will connect the new gen-eration to the system, contribute to area reliability and serve growing area loads.

An advertising series in 1971 placed em-phasis on the Companis interests and efforts in protecting the environment. These ads and TV commercials showed Company special-ists at their jobs. In the top photo is fisheries biologist Bill Adair. At lower left is Lionel Lewis. nuclear health physicist. and at lower right is George Swearingen, manager of en-vironmental health programs, including mos-quito control, on the Company's 14 lakes.

Environrnental Advances The Company's $50 million program to reduce flyash emissions at its steam stations began to show excellent results during the year. New elec-trostatic precipitators were installed on two units at Lee Steam Station, one at Marshall Steam Sta-tion, two at Dan River Steam Station and two at Allen Steam Station.

The flyash collection devices are to be installed or upgraded on all of the Company's coal-burning units on a scheduled basis. The program will be complete by mid-1973 with the objective of essen-tially clear stacks over the entire system.

The Company's participation in Research Pro-ject 49 continued in 1911. This program is provid-ing data as to the effect of the warmed-water dis-charge at Marshall Steam Station. A state agency, university consultants and Duke Power personnel have been collecting this data for four years and channeling it to Johns Hopkins University, which is conducting the research program for the Edison Electric Institute. To date, we believe that the study has shown a net beneficial effect on Lake Norman from the warmed discharge.

Institutional advertising during the year featured several of the Company's scientists involved in environmental duties. These ads and TV commer-cials stressed the Company's day-to-day concern with protecting the environmental resources nec-essary to the manufacture of electricity and that these resources are enhanced through Company efforts in many cases.

Following the widely publicized "Calvert Cliffs" decision, the AEC asked the Company to show cause why construction of Oconee Units 2 and 3 should not be halted pending a thorough environ-mental review. The depth of Duke Power's long-standing program of serious environmental study and research paid good dividends here. The show cause order was answered rapidly and effectively, and delay of these two major generating additions was avoided.

Noteworthy industrial expansions completed or announced in 1971 include Charlotte Pipe and Foundry Co. (plastic pipe), Abbott Laboratories (rubber goods), Collins & Aikman Corp. (knitted fabrics), General Tire and Rubber Co. (tires),

General Electric (large gas turbines), Celanese Plastics Company (polyester film), Teledyne Inc.

(metals) and Union Carbide Corp. (electrical iie i products).

The growth in popularity of total-electric mo-bile homes continued during 1971 when 1,433 of

The average annual usage per Duke residential customer was 10,299 kilowatthours in 1971, ex-ceeding the national average for investor-owned

companies by 2,869 kilowatthours. The average usage per Duke customer was 83 per cent greater than it was 10 years ago.

LARGE POWER SALES -

for a net increase of contractual load of 338,195 gqquq kilowatts in 1971, an all-time record. There also was an increase on a contractual basis of 22,050 .

Over fourteen hundred total-elect: .c commer-l cial buildings joined Duke lines in 1971, bringing i the system to;al to 7,672 such buildings. These buildings added 106.000 kilowatts of commercial heating space, which was a 14 per cent increase over 1970.

Accountants' Opinion H AS KINS S SELLS C ERTIFICO PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS DUKE POWER COMPANY:

We hne examined the balance sheet of Duke Power Company as of December 31.1971 and 1970 and the related statements of income, retained earnings, and source of funds for plant construction expenditures for the two years ended December 31, 1971. Our examination was made in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, and accordingly included such tests of the accoimting records and such other auditing procedures as we considered accessary in the circumstances.

In our opinion, subject to final settlement of the rate matters referred to in note I to the financial state-ments, the accompanying financial statements present fairly the financial position of the Company at Dece nber 31,1971 and 1970 and th. results of its operations and its source of feads for plant construc-tion expenditures for the two years ended December 31, 1971, in conformity with generally accepted accrunting principles applied on a consistent basis.
