The Advantages Of Local Extremes Of Systems When Considering Energy Supply Trends Toward Size And Complexity, Harold A. Kurstedt Jr., Arthur M. Squires, William A. Kramer Oct 1978

The Advantages Of Local Extremes Of Systems When Considering Energy Supply Trends Toward Size And Complexity, Harold A. Kurstedt Jr., Arthur M. Squires, William A. Kramer

UMR-MEC Conference on Energy / UMR-DNR Conference on Energy

Recent discussions of new energy sources, including some debate concerning the relative merits of a number of approaches, reflect an emerging trend toward extremes in size and complexity of sources. This trend is justified as a fundamental premise for future energy development. The trend is related to similar trends in commerce, business, medical service, and transportation. The recent sharp increases in marginal energy costs, along with governmental intervention in the energy scene, are accelerating a focus on the concept of an energy park, at one extreme, and on small locally-controlled sources of energy, at the other A key to successful …

Energy Substitution Prospects, Vaman Rao Oct 1978

Energy Substitution Prospects, Vaman Rao

UMR-MEC Conference on Energy / UMR-DNR Conference on Energy

Any discussion about the future pattern of energy use invariably includes scernarios involving a switch-over to that source of energy which is available in abundant supply. It is taken for granted, for example, that coal will play a major role in the future and that the relative share of oil will decline with the passage of time. It is too simplistic to assume that a time series analysis will give the likely clues as to the pattern of switch-over from one source of energy to another. There has been a radical change in the structure of exchange relations between the …
