Title: Projection of Soviet Energy Use to 1990. Policy Research Series No. 3

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/5342741· OSTI ID:5342741

Actual Soviet energy use for the years 1950 to 1975 was used as a basis for projecting energy use to 1990. Two projections were made, one based upon continuation of historical usage patterns and a second that incorporated possible changes in these patterns. These changes were based upon such factors as changing energy availability, costs, and the political/economic objectives of the Soviet government. In this latter case, the potential for considerably reduced energy consumption is strikingly clear.
