Evaluation of Energy Use: Watt Committee report number 6 PDF

Foreword

This sixth report of The Watt Committee on Energy arises naturally from the reports and supplements already published. The first of these, “Energy Research and Development in the United Kingdom”, was a response to the ACORD (Advisory Committee on Research and Development) document Energy Paper No. 11 HMSO 1976. This critique requested by the Chief Scientist, Dr Walter Marshall, was followed at his suggestion, by an indepth study of one section of the first report. This was published as Report No. 2 “Deployment of National Resources in the Provision of Energy in the United Kingdom, 1975–2025”. In a later report No. 4 “Energy Development and Land in the United Kingdom, we investigated in some detail the amount and type of land demanded by the Government scenarios.
