Energy emergency plan for Connecticut

Technical Report · Wed Jan 15 04:00:00 EST 1975

OSTI ID:7358913

This Plan provides a framework which allows the State of Connecticut to respond firmly, quickly, and equitably to an energy emergency. The Plan furnishes the Governor with a range of measures aimed at curtailing demand in the short-term that can be implemented on a voluntary basis. The Plan discusses the national energy dilemma as it affects Connecticut by examining Connecticut's energy resources including petroleum products, natural gas, coal, and electricity in terms of demand, distribution, supply security and logistics, and emergency planning. Potential energy savings for the various contingency measures are enumerated, and a profile of each vis-a-vis economic impact, basic life support impact, and public safety/services impact is given. A shortage index, designed to insure a match between the response measure and fuel supply problem is defined and explained. Exhibits are included. (GRA)
