On decoupling energy and GNP growth

Clark W. Bullard and Craig Z. Foster

Energy, 1976, vol. 1, issue 3, 291-300

Abstract: This paper presents an energy demand model for the U.S. which involves four classes of variables: population, per capita GNP, lifestyle and technology. The model is implemented on a computer with an interactive graphics terminal. This allows a user to describe future scenarios in terms of the four parameters and to immediately see the resulting energy implications. It is a structural, not a predictive, model which is intended to demonstrate the sensitivity of energy demand to each of these parameters.
