CRITICAL POST-1985 ENERGY POLICY ISSUES

This report identifies eight interdisciplinary issues requiring the most careful analysis because of their fundamental importance to energy policy. The report also identifies six issues which demonstrate a variety of justifications for formulating energy policy in the context of post-1985 considerations. A taxonomy of energy issues is developed and used to identify the extent to which nine policy areas receive too little or too much attention.
