...differs significantly from economic models, because it entirely ignores the role prices play in determining the nation's energy mix. The Westinghouse electricity model projects both demographic trends and economic indicators, such as total population, housing stock and employment to predict total electricity use. The model must adjust these input assumptions from the energy forecasts of Data Resources, Inc., Otto Eckstein's Lexington, Mass., econometrics firm. However sophisticated the model or precise its electricity computations, the forecasts will prove no more accurate than the input assumptions someone feeds it. MR&A's forecast last year projected about 104 quadrillion British...
...homes. But MR&A energy analysts, along with many others, are frankly skeptical of "conservation"--the new catch of the anti-industrial left. One of MR&A's summer projects used an economic model developed at Stanford to determine the consequences of economy-wide energy conservation. By varying an input assumption which gauges the ease of substitution between industrial energy requirements and more efficient capital stock additions, an analyst can indicate the linkages between current production processes and their energy use. A tightly linked structure means energy cutbacks would cause heavy production and employment losses, whereas a more flexible technological...
