Projections of energy supply and demand for the 1978--1979 winter heating season
Supply and demand projections relating to the 1978--1979 winter heating season are presented. National projections were made for petroleum, natural gas, and coal based on an economic assumption that reflects moderate growth in real GNP of 2.6% in 1979, normal weather conditions, and no major disruptions in foreign or domestic supplies. In addition, range of these projections based on legitimate real work uncertainties are presented. The projections showed that supplies together with realistic inventory drawdown strategies and feasible import levels would be adequate to meet the foreseen consumption requirements for all fuels for the winter, although there were some indications of possible tightness in the supply and demand balances for each major fuel.
