The report was written in support of a comprehensive study of the nation's prospective energy economy during the period 1985-2020. The goal of the study was to assist in the formulation of energy policy. Specifically, this report was written to determine the extent to which domestic supplies of energy could be produced, should that production become, and covered: (1) The availability of primary energy resources in the United States, and the prospects for their recovery as a function of cost and technology; (2) the institutional, financial, and political considerations that might restrain or encourage production, conversion, and distribution; and (3) the nonenergy materials, manufacturing capacity, manpower, capital, land, and water required for a range of energy- supply estimates.
