Issues in electric energy systems: A review of the DOE R and D program: (Final report)
To put the Electric Energy Systems (EES) program into perspective, this report begins with an in-depth review of the historic federal role in energy research and development. This review supports the Committee's opinion that the federal support of research and development (R and D) in this area is warranted by a combination of federal policy and private-sector considerations (chapter 1). The report then examines the major categories of R and D requirements related to electric power systems: systems technology; reliability; and safety, health, and environment (chapters 2, 3, and 4). These chapters establish the need for specific research topics recommended by the Committee and also provide a critique of the current EES program plan. In the final chapter the Committee presents its critique of the EES history and current operations. It then provides summary views of the program management requirements and the general budget to carry out the Committee's recommendations. 44 refs.
