[12] Summarizing State plans is difficult, because they are constantly changing. Any review will be out of date before it can be printed. The value given here was derived by reviewing the information provided on the GDS Associates Electric Web (www.gdsassoc.com/ dereg/state.html) on August 20, 1997. States were counted as aggressively moving toward retail competition if the summaries provided indicated a date for full retail choice and/or a retail pilot program either started or planned for the near future.

[14] Electricity prices are determined competitively in the reference case in the California, New York, and New Jersey regions, which have made sufficient progress to allow their transition to a more competitive structure to be represented.

[15] The results described here are similar to those presented in Electricity Prices in a Competitive Environment: Marginal Cost Pricing of Generation Services and Financial Status of Electric Utilities; however, the magnitudes of the price changes, especially in the Northwest, are smaller because this analysis used updated operations and maintenance costs and lower gas price expectations.

[21] Greenhouse gases differ in their impacts on global temperatures. For comparisons of emissions from the various gases, they are often weighted by their global warming potential (GWP), which is a measure of the relative impact of each gas on global warming relative to that of carbon dioxide, which is defined as having a GWP equal to 1.

[25] Only portions of the national economic statistics have been converted to 1992 chain-weighted dollars. Because the national input-output matrix for manufacturing industries, which underlies the projections in Figure 22, is still available only in 1987 fixed-weight dollars, the growth rates shown in the figure are based on 1987 fixed-weight dollars. The use of fixed-weight dollars is not expected to affect the picture of relative growth rates shown in the figure.

[28] The transportation sector has been left out of these calculations because levels of transportation sector electricity use have historically been far less than 1 percent of delivered electricity. In the transportation sector, the difference between total and delivered energy consumption is also less than 1 percent.

[29] The high and low macroeconomic growth cases are linked to higher and lower population growth, respectively, which affects energy use in all sectors.

[30] The intensities shown were disaggregated using the divisia index. The divisia index is a weighted sum of growth rates and is separated into a sectoral shift or “output” effect and an energy efficiency or “substitution” effect. It has at least two properties that make it superior to other indexes. First, it is not sensitive to where in the time period or in which direction the index is computed. Second, when the effects are separated, the individual components have the same magnitude, regardless of which is calculated first. See Energy Information Administration, Structural Shift and Aggregate Energy Efficiency in Manufacturing (unpublished working paper in support of the National Energy Strategy, May 1990); and Boyd et al., “Separating the Changing Effects of U.S. Manufacturing Production from Energy Efficiency Improvements,” Energy Journal, Vol. 8, No. 2 (1987).

[31] Estimated as consumption of alternative transportation fuels in crude oil Btu equivalence, assuming that flex-fuel vehicles use alternative fuels 50 percent of the time.

[32] Small light trucks (compact pickup trucks and compact vans) are used primarily as passenger vehicles, whereas medium light trucks (compact utility trucks and standard vans) and large light trucks (standard utility trucks and standard pickup trucks) are used more heavily for commercial purposes. Over the past decade, horsepower increases for passenger vehicles have outpaced those for commercial light-duty vehicles. This trend is expected to continue.

[33] Sales of alternative-fuel vehicles that are determined by market forces rather than by legislative mandates are defined here as market-driven AFV sales.

[37] Unless otherwise noted, the term “capacity” in the discussion of electricity generation indicates utility, nonutility, and cogenerator capacity.

[38] For example, according to the latest USGS estimates, the size of the Nation's technically recoverable undiscovered conventional crude oil resources (in onshore areas and State waters) is most likely to be 30.3 billion barrels—with a 19 in 20 chance of being at least 23.5 billion barrels and a 1 in 20 chance of being at least 39.6 billion barrels. The corresponding USGS estimate for the Nation's natural gas resources is 258.7 trillion cubic feet—with a 19 in 20 chance of being at least 207.1 trillion cubic feet and a 1 in 20 chance of being at least 329.1 trillion cubic feet. AEO98 does not examine the implications of geological resource uncertainty. The figures cited above are taken from U.S. Geological Survey, National Oil and Gas Resource Assessment Team, 1995 National Assessment of United States Oil and Gas Resources, U.S. Geological Survey Circular 1118 (Washington, DC, 1995), p. 2. The cited numbers exclude natural gas liquids resources, for which the corresponding USGS estimates are 7.2, 5.8, and 8.9 billion barrels.

[39] Substantial uncertainty surrounds the ultimate use of North Slope gas. However, projected low gas prices in the lower 48 markets justify the AEO98 perspective that does not consider it a significant factor affecting domestic energy markets, especially natural gas markets.

[40] Eleven projects are currently proposed to expand pipeline capacity from Canada into the United States between 1998 and 2000. Three are slated to provide access to Sable Island supplies. It is assumed that not all proposed projects will be built, but that some combination of currently proposed projects will add approximately 2 billion cubic feet per day of pipeline capacity to access western Canadian supplies and 0.4 billion cubic feet per day to access Sable Island supplies. For information about specific projects, see Energy Information Administration, “Natural Gas Pipeline and System Expansions,” Natural Gas Monthly, DOE/EIA-0130(97/04) (Washington, DC, April 1997).

[41] Two additional LNG import facilities located at Cove Point, MD, and Elba Island, GA, both of which are currently idle, are not projected to be reopened in the reference case. While LNG imports in the forecast all come from Algeria, new potential sources of supply include Australia, Abu Dhabi, Trinidad and Tobago, and Norway.

[42] The two technology cases were run as fully integrated model runs. All other parameters in the model were kept at their reference case values, including technology parameters for other modules, parameters affecting foreign oil supply, and assumptions about gas trade with Mexico.

[43] Greater technological advances can markedly increase the quantity of economically recoverable resources by driving down costs, increasing success rates, and increasing recovery from producing wells. Expected production rate declines could be slowed or even reversed within the forecast period if faster implementation of advanced technologies is realized.

[44] Enhanced oil recovery (EOR) is the extraction of the oil that can be economically produced from a petroleum reservoir greater than that which can be economically recovered by conventional primary and secondary methods. EOR methods usually involve injecting heated fluids, pressurized gases, or special chemicals into an oil reservoir in order to produce additional oil.

[45] Energy Information Administration, Monthly Energy Review, DOE/EIA-0035(96/03) (Washington, DC, March 1996), Table 1.6.

[46] In the 1980s, falling consumption led to surplus refining capacity, which reduced the need for product imports. See Energy Information Administration, The U.S. Petroleum Industry: Past as Prologue 1970-1992, DOE/EIA-0572 (Washington, DC, September 1993), p. 47.

[47] Total labor costs are estimated by multiplying the average hourly earnings of coal mine production workers by total annual labor hours worked. Average hourly earnings do not represent total labor costs per hour for the employer, because they exclude retroactive payments and irregular bonuses, employee benefits, and the employer's share of payroll taxes.

[48] Variations in mining costs are not necessarily limited to changes in labor productivity and wage rates. Other factors that affect mining costs and, subsequently, the price of coal include such items as severance taxes, royalties, fuel costs, and the costs of parts and supplies.

[49] The “Syncoal” and “Encoal” processes have been developed in partnership with the U.S. Department of Energy by coal producers located in the Montana and Wyoming portions of the Powder River Basin, respectively. The Syncoal process uses subbituminous coal with a moisture content of 25 to 40 percent, sulfur content of 0.5 to 1.5 percent, and heating value of 11 to 18 million Btu per ton. It yields a solid fuel with 1 percent moisture, 0.3 percent sulfur, and up to 24 million Btu per ton. The Encoal process uses mild gasification to produce “CDL”—a synthetic low-sulfur No. 6 fuel oil equivalent—and “PDF”—a low-sulfur solid fuel with a heat content of approximately 24 million Btu per ton. Encoal PDF solids have been successfully tested by American Electric Power as a steam fuel and by USX and Bethlehem Steel as a blast furnace injectant. Encoal CDL has been used by industries in Maine, Michigan, and Louisiana.
