Analysis of residential, industrial and commercial sector responses to potential electricity supply constraints in the 1990s

Description: There is considerable debate over the ability of electric generation capacity to meet the growing needs of the US economy in the 1990s. This study provides new perspective on that debate and examines the possibility of power outages resulting from electricity supply constraints. Previous studies have focused on electricity supply growth, demand growth, and on the linkages between electricity and economic growth. This study assumes the occurrence of electricity supply shortfalls in the 1990s and… more

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

An Anatomy of China's Energy Insecurity and Its Strategies

Description: China’s energy insecurity largely originates from its constrained availability, questionable reliability, and uncertain affordability of its oil supplies. The country’s fast industrialization and urbanization, together with demand for infrastructure and increasing popularity of automobiles, requires a lot of energy, but it consumes energy both intensively and inefficiently, threatening the environmental well-being of China and its neighbors. China’s risk aversion and poor energy policy making s… more

Approach for evaluating alternative future energy systems: a dynamic net energy analysis

Description: Realistic analysis of future energy systems is a difficult, but crucial, component of assuring future energy supplies. The procedure proposed in this paper is a dynamic, net energy assessment that is a resource-based method for evaluating future energy systems. The model is system, site, and application specific and is equally applicable to general system characterizations and specific designs. The implications of possible resource and societal constraints on energy development are investigated. more
