Technical Report · Mon Jun 01 04:00:00 EDT 1992

OSTI ID:10155741

The purpose of the Supplement is to review the accuracy of the forecasts published in the Outlook, make comparisons with other independent energy forecasts, and examine current energy topics that affect the forecasts. Chapter 2 presents an analysis of likely effects of the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 as they impact motor gasoline. Chapter 3 compares EIA`s base or ``mid`` case energy projections as published in the first quarter 1992 Outlook with recent projections made by four other major forecasting groups for both 1992 and 1993. The chapter focuses on macroeconomic assumptions, primary energy demand, and primary energy supply, showing the differences and similarities in the five forecasts. Chapter 4 evaluates the accuracy of the short-term energy forecasts published in the third quarter 1990 through the forth quarter 1991 Outlooks. The energy forecasts evaluated for petroleum include: prices, products supplied, production, imports, and stocks. Forecasts for consumption and production of natural gas and coal are also evaluated as well as electricity sales and generation forecasts.
