Recent shifts in population, industry, and energy demand among the regions of the nation have intensified energy problems in some areas and created enhanced opportunities to conserve energy. Detailed analyses and careful planning are needed so that actions can be taken to ease these problems and take advantage of the special opportunities to conserve energy created by the shifts. This report reviews Federal, State, and private efforts to assess and plan for the energy implications associated with population shifts and identifies areas where better planning is needed.
