Linear-programming approach to county-level energy-scenario disaggregation

Description: Many recent national and regional Energy Planning Studies utilize the scenario approach as a framework for R and D Assessment or policy analysis, with information detail at best to the census or Reliability Council Region level. Unfortunately, such scenarios are of limited utility to State Agencies, or to those interested in environmental-impact or resource-constraint questions. This paper describes an LP disaggregation procedure to translate regional energy scenarios to county-level detail, wi… more

Linear programming model for county-level electric facility siting

Description: A mathematical programming approach to the disaggregation of regional electric-sector energy scenarios is developed, with particular emphasis on integration with the Brookhaven Regional Energy System Optimization model that defines the regional generation mix, and the Brookhaven atmospheric transport models that allow computation of air quality given emissions at the county level. The model sites generation and transmission facilities by county, in such a way as to satisfy exogenously specified… 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
