The possible impact of areawide residential location policy on future residential electricity usage in the Tri-State Metropolitan Region centering on New York City is investigated. This paper reports on a preliminary forecast of 1985 electric energy consumption by the New York Region's households. The forecast derives from currently accepted residential development plans and projections of the Tri-State Regional Planning Commission. It yields a 'most likely' 1985 aggregate regional household consumption figure of nearly 56,000 megawatt hours--i.e., a 109 percent increase over the approximately 27,000 mgh used during 1970.
