Energy savings to result from implementation of the Minnesota plan are estimated at 122.3 trillion Btu or 8.9% of the FEA baseline forecast for Minnesota, for 1980, of 1361.1 trillion Btu. However, not all of these savings are to result from program measures for which Minnesota is requesting approval or funding (total or partial) under provisions of the SECP. Table IV-B (appended) of the plan submission lists the SECP program measures and their related savings. These savings amount to 71.2 trillion Btu or 5.2% of the 1980 projection. Of this total, 17.4 trillion Btu (or 24.4% of savings) are attributed to the five required program measures (state building codes and thermal efficiency standards, lighting standards for public buildings, life cycle cost analysis, increase in transit level of transportation systems, right turn on left). The remaining 53.8 trillion Btu are realized from some 14 additional measures. Of the 71.2 trillion Btu, 9.9 trillion Btu are electrical generation fuels saved (6.2 of coal and 3.7 oil); this is about 14% of primary fuel savings. No significant adverse environmental impacts were expected from implementation of the plan.
