The ad argues for expanding coal plants and adding nuclear power to meet Arizona’s rising electricity demand. It claims nuclear energy costs less than coal or oil, presents radiation and accident safety data, and cites a target of one fourth of Arizona’s electricity by the mid-1980s to support economic growth.
The speaker argues Arizona will grow to 3 million by 1985 creating demand for 380000 new homes and 350000 jobs and requires new power plants. Coal supplies 80 percent of electricity with ample low-sulphur coal from nearby states, and emissions standards have driven coal plants to modernize.
APS outlines a broad energy strategy to meet rising demand through coal and nuclear power, solar development, geothermal research, hydro sites, pump-back storage, and regional power interchanges. It emphasizes energy conservation to avoid mid-1980s shortages and invites readers to request more facts via an Energy Information Center.
