Using conservation to reduce energy system uncertainty in the US north-west electric system
by Andrew Ford
International Journal of Global Energy Issues (IJGEI), Vol. 2, No. 2, 1990

Abstract: The uncertainty of the US north-west electric system was the subject of a recent study for the Bonneville Power Administration. The study focused on the impact of efficiency standards that would reduce the electricity used in new buildings and appliances. The main question was whether the standards would also reduce the long-term uncertainty in the system. This paper summarises the case study findings which should be of interest to energy planners in Europe as well as in the USA.
