February 22, 2006—The Energy Information Administration released the Annual Energy Outlook 2006 (AEO2006) full report on its Web site.
In preparing projections for the AEO2006, EIA evaluated a wide range of trends and issues that could have major implications for US energy markets between now and 2030.
The full AEO2006 report presents information on more than thirty alternative cases.
Examples include cases that examine the impact of greater and slower improvement in energy technologies (end-use, electric generation, renewable, exploration and production), cases with more rapid reductions in nuclear costs, cases with the more rapid or slower introduction of liquefied natural gas supplies, and cases that open the coastal plain of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to exploration and development.
The supplemental tables released along with the report provide additional detail on projected energy consumption and supply by fuel and technology at both the national and regional level.
Also contained in the supplemental tables are: fuel consumption by manufacturing industry, transportation sales information by technology, electric generating capacity forecast additions by North American Electric Reliability Council (NERC) region, and petroleum refining information by Petroleum Administration for Defense Districts (PADD).
