As part of the study, ERDA through the IERS Executive Committee, chartered five panels consisting of representatives of government, industry and the academic community. The panels were chartered in economics, environment, socio-politics, technology and data and analysis. The information generated by the first four panels was to be synthesized by the fifth panel, the Data and Analysis Panel for the IERS Executive Committee. Results of the Technology Study Panel's efforts are synthesized in this report. The eleven sections are entitled: executive summary; introduction; energy demand and exhaustible supply projections; exhaustible energy sources; inexhaustible energy resource technologies; impact of energy market place; engineering solution; results and recommendations; IERS Technology Study Panel Commentary; Technology Study Panel fact sheets; and, energy production cost data and equations.
