Indiana to Build 7 Million Dollar Power Plant
Ground breaking began for a $7,000,000 Indiana Electric Corporation power plant on a 63 acre Wabash river site near Terre Haute. The Brewer interests of Grand Rapids Michigan lead the group with partners including Merchants Heat and Light Indianapolis and Wabash Valley Electric. Plans call for two 20,000 kilowatt units initially, plus three later canal units, with a total capacity of 100,000 kilowatts. 3000 acres adjacent will be mined for coal, sufficient for thirty years, avoiding transport costs.
