Implementation requirements of the regional energy information system (REIS) and provision of a brief cost/benefit analysis of the proposed system are discussed. Divided into four sectors (problems, requirements, the present system, and the proposed implementation of REIS), the development of a demonstration data base, its implementation and that of the regional input-output model as a tool for decision makers are subjects of the report. The accounting subsystem and energy flow network model are two main components; the need to identify specific problems, to gather information on source, energy type, location, use, time with cross classification, the structure of REIS with parameter subsystem, and a description of the study area (N. E. Minnesota) are included. Five energy-producing and 76 energy-using sectors are specified, with energy classification and forms included. (GRA)
