Impacts on energy use, employment, investment and trade, with special emphasis on energy use and employment are measured. Programs analyzed include the proposed National Energy Plan, recent Federal legislation, and other private research programs aimed at accelerating the market penetration of energy efficient appliances (Appendix). The results displayed are the product of the integrated analytical capabilities of ORNL, BNL, and Battelle, PNL.
