Long-term alternative energy R and D strategies. Final report

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6390643

A previous study by the Institute for Applied Systems Analysis dealt in detail with the long-term global energy problem. The present study represents an attempt to transfer the global results to the lower level of the 'sub-region' comprising the European Community so that they may be used as an interface between global and national levels. A further aim is to identify long-term energy R and D strategies for selected European countries which would be consistent with the global scenarios already identified. The on-going analysis is based on previously reported results of model runs for the energy/demand balance of 'Region III', comprising Western, Northern and Southern Europe, Japan, Australia, New Zealand, Oceania, Israel and South Africa, as well as for the energy/supply balance of nine European countries. The first stage was the disaggregation of the economic growth and energy demand and of the energy supply systems of Region III into sub-regions, one of which represents the EEC. Appendix 1 contains the results of the re-calculation of the final energy demand spectrum for the 50 year period until 2030. Appendix 2 contains the results of a re-calculated energy supply pattern for the sub-regions.
