RAND researchers developed an analytical framework and associated metrics for examining vulnerabilities, opportunities, and risks to U.S. TS&D systems through 2030 under a range of uncertainties. They assessed major stresses on and opportunities in three major TS&D systems: oil and refined-oil products, electric power, and natural gas. Separately, they also considered the resilience that these systems have to short-term shocks and disruptions. This analysis was requested to support the 2015 Quadrennial Energy Review (QER). The QER, which, in its first volume, focuses on energy TS&D systems, is a federal government initiative to systematically examine energy system performance and explore options to improve that performance to address 21st-century objectives"--Publisher's description. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references (pages 61-66) 505 00 $t Bibliography. $t Figures and Tables -- $t Summary -- $t Acknowledgments -- $t Abbreviations -- $g C. $t Introduction: $t Purpose -- $t Approach -- $t Organization of This Report -- $g 2. $t Petroleum and Refined-Oil Products: $t Key Issues -- $t Performance Metrics -- $t Models and Data -- $t Key Uncertainties -- $t Policy Options -- $t Scenario Analysis -- $t Resilience -- $t Key Findings -- $g 3. $t Electric Power: $t Key Issues -- $t Performance Metrics -- $t Model and Data -- $t Key Uncertainties -- $t Policy Options -- $t Scenario Analysis -- $t Resilience -- $t Key Findings -- $g 4. $t Natural Gas: $t Key Issues -- $t Performance Metrics -- $t Model and Data -- $t Key Uncertainties -- $t Scenario Analysis -- $t Key Findings -- $g 5. $t Implications for Energy Investments and Policy: $t Petroleum and Refined-Oil Products -- $t Electric Power -- $t Natural Gas -- $t APPENDIXES: $g A. $t Models Used to Generate Results -- $g B. $t Development of the RAND Low Consumption Case for Oil and Refined Products -- $g C. $t Model Output for Electricity for 2050 -- $t Bibliography. 650 0 $a Energy policy $x Government policy $z United States. 650 0 $a Energy security $z United States. 650 0 $a Power transmission $x Government policy $z United States. 650 0 $a Energy industries $x Government policy $z United States. 650 0 $a Energy development $x Government policy $z United States. 650 0 $a Infrastructure (Economics) $z United States $x Safety measures. 700 1 $a Knopman, Debra S., $e author. 700 1 $a Burger, Nicholas, $e author. 700 1 $a Narayanan, Anu, $e author. 700 1 $a Powers, James D., $e author. 700 1 $a Willis, Henry H., $e author. 710 2 $a Rand Justice, Infrastructure, and Environment (Organization), $e issuing body. 830 0 $a Research report (Rand Corporation) ; $v RR-1286-DOE. 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20161202014625.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=80A00CA2B85D11E6BDBAC4DDDAD10320 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
