An accounting system for tracing energy flows in the US economy is devised. Data sources for quantifying this accounting system are identified and evaluated. The accounting system is quantified for the period of 1947 through 1972. The accounting system is comprised of the sources, inventory and uses accounts. The Sources Account records data on new supply of energy products. The Inventory Account records data on major stocks held by producers, distributors, and large users. The Users Account records data on consumption by detailed sectors of the economy, exports and storage, and distribution losses. Another summary account, the Energy Balance Account, represents an aggregation and consolidation of the data in the more detailed accounts for each year. As such, it traces the origin of energy supply by primary energy product through energy conversion processes and/or to final disposition. Data from the Sources and Uses Accounts are discussed. (DC)
