摘要

Objectives of the study were: (1) to identify and analyze alternative methods,means,and techniques,for controlling and moderating the consumption of energy; (2) to evaluate the impact of regulatory actions,taxes,incentives,subsidies or other strategies and methods on alternative physical technologies for energy conservation;and (3) to evaluate,macro-and micro-economic impacts and consequences of alternative energy conservation methods,means and techniques on work,leisure,life styles,and institutions on a local,regional,and national level. The study excludes automobile and related road vehicle energy consumption control strategies,but includes those for residential,commercial,industrial,and other energy end-use sectors. The time frame is from 1973to 1990/2000,with emphasis on the period 1973-1980.
