A review of Michigan's proposed conservation plan has been completed. The target of the Michigan plan, as a whole, is to reduce the state's 1980 energy consumption by 258.9 trillion BTUs. This, measured against the 1980 baseline projection for Michigan of 3,299.78 trillion BTU equals a 7.8% savings. Approximately 53 trillion BTU (20.5%) of savings will come from the five required program measures. It is seen that the residential and commercial sectors account for about 41% of total energy consumption and (through lighting and thermal efficiency programs) about 35% of projected savings; the government sector (where savings come predominantly from improved building efficiency) accounts for another 7%. The industrial sector is responsible for 34.5% of total consumption and about 32% of savings; while transportation uses about 24% of the total consumption and accounts for about 13% of total savings. About 26% of all fuels consumed are for the purpose of generating electricity purchased by the residential, commercial, and industrial sectors. No significant adverse environmental impacts were expected from implementation of the plan.
