本文总结了一项研究的结果-清洁能源未来的情景-评估如何节能和清洁能源技术可以解决美国面临的主要能源和环境挑战。本研究的一个特别重点是不同公共政策和计划的能源，环境和经济影响。分析了数百项技术和大约50项政策。该研究的结论是，现有的政策可以显着减少对石油的依赖，空气污染，碳排放以及能源生产和终端使用系统的效率低下，而美国经济基本上没有净成本。最先进的设想是，到2010年，美国的二氧化碳排放量将恢复到1990年水平的四分之三。该研究还得出结论，随着时间的推移，在这些情景中节省的能源费用可以支付实现这些能源使用和相关温室气体排放减少所需的投资。(C)2001爱思唯尔科技有限公司版权所有。
This paper summarizes the results of a study-Scenarios for a Clean Energy Future-that assess how energy-efficient and clean energy technologies can address key energy and environmental challenges facing the US. A particular focus of this study is the energy, environmental, and economic impacts of different public policies and programs. Hundreds of technologies and approximately 50 policies are analyzed. The study concludes that policies exist that can significantly reduce oil dependence, air pollution, carbon emissions, and inefficiencies in energy production and end-use systems at essentially no net cost to the US economy. The most advanced scenario finds that by the year 2010, the US could bring its carbon dioxide emissions three-quarters of the way back to 1990 levels. The study also concludes that over time energy bill savings in these scenarios can pay for the investments needed to achieve these reductions in energy use and associated greenhouse gas emissions.
