This report was prepared as part of the Ohio River Basin Energy Study (ORBES), a multi-disciplinary research program supported by the Environmental Protection Agency. It presents selected results of a comprehensive evaluation of environmental, energy, economic and emissions impacts of electric utility operations in and around the Ohio River Valley through 2000. Impact projections are based on alternative scenarios defined by sets of assumptions regarding electricity demand and government and utility policies, such as alternative state implementation plan (SIP) emission limits, SIP compliance or no SIP compliance, alternative generating unit lifetimes, different rates of electricity demand growth, and different utility dispatching criteria.
