Analysis of the California energy industry

Description: The energy-supply system for California is an integral part of the state's economy, both in terms of energy as a commodity and in the economic effects of expanding requirements for new capital and man-power in the energy sector. It is this notion of an expanding energy system that forms one of the motivations for many of the energy policy discussions and formulations currently taking place. Some of the questions to be addressed are (1) if the energy system is to expand, by how much, and in what… more

European waste-to-energy systems: case study of Koersor, Denmark

Description: Koersor, Denmark operates a waste-to-energy system for only 20,000 persons. Energy is recovered in the form of heat for district heating and the facility has been operating reliably for about four years. The apparent success of this installation suggests that the system may have applications in smaller communities. The design and operation of the facility are summarized. The energy recovered from the boiler amounts to about 7,000 kilotherms (kth) per year. The thermal efficiency of the plant is… more

Econometric Analyses of Household Fuel Demands

Description: This study develops econometric models of residential demands for electricity, natural gas, and petroleum products. Fuel demands per household are estimated as functions of fuel prices, per capita income, heating degree days, and mean July temperature. Both cross-sectional and dynamic models are developed using a large data base containing observations for each state and year from 1951 through 1974. Long-run own-price elasticities for all three fuels are greater than unity with natural gas show… more

Shift-share analysis revisited: the allocation effect and the stability of regional structure

Description: This paper examines the Esteban-Marquillas reformulation of the ''classical'' shift-share equation. The revised equation is used to decompose sectoral employment growth between 1960 and 1970 into four effects that measure differential change among U.S. regions. The empirical results indicate that this new technique expands the analytic properties of shift-share analysis, but that interpretations are sensitive to the temporal representation of regional structure in the shift-… more

Preparing Successful ISTC Proposals for Radiological Monitoring Projects

Description: The United States Science Centers Program exists because expertise relevant to the production or use of weapons of mass destruction (WMD) exists in the states formerly comprising the Soviet Union. We seek to deter the transfer of that knowledge to people or governments that would use it to do harm or terrorize. Working through the Science & Technology Centers in Moscow and Kyiv, we promote peaceful collaborative science as an alternative to the proliferation of WMD expertise. In concert, we bel… more

Growth of electric heating in the TVA area. [Period 1961-1974 analyzed; projection to 1985]

Description: This study analyzes the growth of electric space heating in the TVA region for the period of 1961 through 1974. Relatively low residential electric power rates have contributed to the present 40% saturation of electrically heated homes in the TVA region compared to less than 10% for the rest of the nation. Disaggregated data from 144 distributors of electric power in the TVA area are analyzed by developing linear trend, logistic growth functions, and a logit model to estimate demand for electri… more
