Edmonton, Alberta, Canada : Duval House Publishing, 2002. 1st Edition . Hardcover. As New/Near Fine. As New, With Minor Wear To Dust Jacket. -For More Information On Condition. Please See All Photos. - Vintage 2002 Candles to Kilowatts: The Story of Edmonton's Power Company is a book that documents the history of Edmonton Power and its close connection to the City of Edmonton. The book, written by Heather Marshall and Debbie Culbertson, traces the journey of Edmonton Power from its early days as a small light and power company providing service to a seven-block stretch of downtown Edmonton for only limited hours between sunset and sunrise. The book highlights how the growth of Edmonton resulted in an ever-increasing demand for electricity and how the availability of electricity helped the city grow and develop1. It also showcases the company's drive to be on the leading edge of technological innovations. For instance, the Rossdale Power Plant, the generating station located in Edmonton's river valley, boasted one of the world's first 10,000-kW turbo-generators in 1928. The book serves as a testament to the company's evolution and its significant role in shaping the city of Edmonton.
