Table 14 Evaluation of Energy Supply Options S4-S6 for Demand Scenario CI - Constrained, Intermediate Demand Electrical energy demand is low because regulations and fuel prices have driven up the cost of energy. Conservation and other supply substitu- t ions are selected, thereby lessening the demand for electrical energy. High because of restrained conventional sources. Better than Si because of decreased use of conventional technologies. Not much different than Si. Depleting fuel supplies but at a low rate. Moderate development of western states. Strong regulation. Lower than S4 because replacement technology will hold down fuel prices somewhat. Same as S2. Same as S3. Land consumption, depleting fuels. Same as S2 but boom/bust would be less. Same as S2. Lower than S4, maybe less than S5. New radiation problems. Same as Si. Same as Si. Similar to S2 but diminished boom/bust. Same as S3.
