LONG-TERM ENERGY ANALYSIS PACKAGE 1980: MODEL SIMULATION
Describes the overall energy system of the United States, from 1975 to 2030, in 5-year intervals. The various processes of energy production, conversion, transportation, and end use are individually represented. A representation of market penetration is used to analyze new technology contributions over the forecast period. A particular model constructed using LEAP consists of network description of the problem from energy sources to energy uses, combining appropriated processes where necessary. The solution to such a problem describes energy flows and prices, over the network, for the time interval. This model is used to produce the long-term forecasts for the EIA Annual Report to Congress, Volume III...Software Description: The programs are written in Fortran (H extended compiler) for implementation on IBM S/360 or 370 computers using the OS or VS operating system. Approximately 200K bytes of core storage are required to operate the system.

Supplemental Notes:
- Source tape is in EBCDIC character set. Tapes can be prepared in most standard 7 or 9 track recording modes for one-half inch tape. Identify recording mode desired by specifying character set, track, density, and parity. Call NTIS Computer Products if you have questions.
