NORTHERN GREAT PLAINS RESOURCE PROGRAM, NATIONAL AND REGIONAL ENERGY CONSIDERATIONS WORK GROUP REPORT

This analyzes the energy resources in the states of North Dakota, South Dakota, Montana and Wyoming and presents data on the potential for these resources to provide a share of the total national energy demand. Analyses in the following seven principle areas are presented: (1) Status of current development; (2) Energy use forecasts by region, state, sector and source; (3) Energy conservation; (4) Coal gasification and coal liquidfaction; (5) Transportation of energy from the region; (6) Electrical generation; (7) Status of technology; and (8) Future alternated energy sources. Data are also presented on three alternative hypothetical rates of coal development; minimum, intermediate and maximum rates.
