Representatives of the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) met to discuss highlights of the institute's accomplishments during 1977 and to assess major concerns. The principal topics covered were EPRI goals, organizational structure, program emphasis and effectiveness, public relations, commercialization of new technologies, breeder reactor programs, conservation, and high-voltage effects. These were discussed in terms of whether EPRI efforts are in line with national energy policy and goals. Long-range concerns were expressed about the mismanagement of natural resources and negative dynamics in the society that cause inaction. (DCK)
