This annual report of the IEA Working Party on energy conservation described briefly the background and objectives of each project area, the status of its implementing agreement, its organizational structure, and current activities. The Committee on Energy R and D has established 15 working areas: biomass conversion; coal technology; conservation R and D; energy R and D strategy; fusion; geothermal; high-temperature reactors for process heat; hydrogen; nuclear safety; ocean thermal energy conversion; radioactive waste management; small solar power systems; solar energy; wave power; and wind power. Presently, the Working Party has implementing agreements and is working in 7 areas: buildings and community systems; building complexes; ekistics; combustion; energy cascading; heat pumps; and heat transfer.
