On October 30 and 31, 1991, the EPRI Public and Advanced Transportation Program sponsored a workshop on high-speed rail (HSR) and maglev. The purpose of this workshop was to provide utility managers with increased knowledge about these technologies, public policy regarding them, and their potential costs and benefits to utilities, including induced economic development. With this information, utilities should be better prepared to make decisions related to the development of these high speed intercity passenger options in their service areas. A main goal, achieved by the workshop, was to provide EPRI and its member utilities with ideas and information for developing an assessment and research agenda on these technologies.
