This report summarizes the 1991 Edition of the GRI Baseline Projection of the US Energy Supply and Demand, which is a major element in the internal planning cycle leading to the development of the Gas Research Institute (GRI) research and development program. The baseline projection represents the GRI planning outlook for the economic and energy supply and demand situation to the year 2010. The projection is developed independently by GRI using publicly available data and a framework of commercially available models that GRI has developed over several years. It is not derived from the views of GRI member companies. This report presents a series of summary tables, sectoral breakdowns of energy demand, and the natural gas supply and price trends. The appendices include a discussion of methodology and assumptions used to prepare the 1991 edition of the projection, a brief discussion of the potential impacts of the Middle East crisis, an analysis of the potential for higher levels of gas demand, a description of industrial and commercial cogeneration, a description of the independent power producer (IPP) methodology and projection, a comparison of the 1991 edition of the projection with previous GRI projections, and a discussion of additional data used in developing the projection. 19 tabs.
