11. Pluses of President Bush’s Proposed Energy Policy Expands conservation efforts in all sectors Encourages technological innovation Promotes Consumer Education

12. Negatives of President Bush’s Proposed Energy Policy Recommends “flexibility” in Environmental Permitting Removal of Impediments to Energy Development on Federal Lands (especially in consultation with local public)

13. Assumptions of Proposed Policy Environmental damage from oil, gas, and coal can be eliminated (or reduced to insignificant levels) Oil, gas, and coal (along with nuclear) are cheapest Conservation requires reduced quality of life Renewable energy is not a viable option

25. Photovoltaic Technology Development Approved by the IEEE United States Activities Board (December 1996) The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers - United States of America (IEEE-USA) strongly supports the continued development of direct solar conversion, photovoltaics, for the generation of electricity as a means of reducing the impact of man on the environment. Responsible planning for future electrical demand requires all reasonable efforts be made toward reducing our continued growth in the use of fossil fuels. IEEE-USA has identified photovoltaics as a viable option in the generation of electricity.

26. Unreclaimed Problems The unreclaimed high priority problems are quite concentrated in a few states. Seven States (Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Kentucky, Kansas, Virginia, Ohio, and Oklahoma) account for 95 % of these problem costs.

27. Energy Efficiency Approved by IEEE-USA Board of Directors (15 Nov. 2001) Conclusion Through improvements in energy efficiency, the United States can reduce costs, increase energy security, enhance international competitiveness, and reduce environmental impacts. Significant improvements in energy efficiency can be made through the application of currently available and cost-effective technologies and processes. As the demand for energy continues to grow, new energy efficient technologies can play an increasingly important role in increasing the productivity of the nation's energy system.
