Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/5957708· OSTI ID:5957708

The annual report of the Institute for Energy Analysis (IEA) is presented. The IEA was established in 1974 to examine broad questions of energy policy. It assesses energy policy and energy research and development options and analyzes alternative energy supply and demand projections from technical, economic, and social perspectives. The IEA focuses primarily on national energy issues, but it is also concerned with international energy questions and their implications for domestic energy problems. Work was carried out in the following areas: solar and decentralized energy systems, nuclear energy studies, biological risks from energy technologies, carbon dioxide, conservation and cost analysis, fossil energy studies, economic analysis, net energy analysis, other studies and topics. Highlights in these areas are briefly summarized, and then abstracts of recently published documents are presented. (RWR)
