This report reviews the bulk electric power supply and demand situation projected by the electric utility industry for the contiguous US in the decade 1985 to 1994. The review is based primarily on the April 1, 1985 Regional Reliability Council Coordinated Bulk Power Supply Program Reports (IE-411 reports) submitted to the Department of Energy by each of the nine Regional Electric Reliability Councils. Other sources of information have also been used. The first map in Appendix 1 shows the geographic areas covered by each council. Six Council areas are subdivided into a total of 23 Regions to give a better understanding of the power supply situation. Three Council areas (ERCOT, MAAC and MAPP) are each considered as a single Electrical Region. Including the three councils considered as Regions, there are 26 Electric Regions discussed in this report. These Regions are shown on the second map in Appendix 1. Appendix 3 lists the utilities in each Region for which data are included in this report. Brief discussions are provided for each Council and each Region, with tabulated data providing the quantitative basis for the analyses. 63 tabs.
