Energy Efficiency and Fossil Energy Research 1978 to 2000","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn legislation appropriating funds for DOE's fiscal year (FY) 2000 energy R\u0026amp;D budget, the House Interior Appropriations Subcommittee directed an evaluation of the benefits that have accrued to the nation from the R\u0026amp;D conducted since 1978 in DOE's energy efficiency and fossil energy programs. In response to the congressional charge, the National Research Council formed the Committee on Benefits of DOE R\u0026amp;D on Energy Efficiency and Fossil Energy.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFrom its inception, DOE's energy R\u0026amp;D program has been the subject of many outside evaluations. The present evaluation asks whether the benefits of the program have justified the considerable expenditure of public funds since DOE's formation in 1977, and, unlike earlier evaluations, it takes a comprehensive look at the actual outcomes of DOE's research over two decades.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e National Research Council,Division on Engineering and Physical Sci,Board on Energy and Environmental System\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0309074487\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780309074483\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e National Academies Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/12\/2001\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.00h x 8.50w x 0.60d","brand":"National Research Council","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48447624904959,"sku":"9780309074483","price":61.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a5556387-4083-452e-b387-0d0fac81fcff.jpg?v=1777233940","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/energy-research-at-doe-national-research-council-9780309074483","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
