Use of the equilibrium results to develop new transactions tables for an energy/materials microcosm of the economy showed a serious economic shortcoming of both policy alternatives. As modeled, the President s policy and the Advisory Council s policy would increase, rather than decrease, the direct plus indirect input requirements of the three basic conversion industries (petroleum refining, electric power, basic chemicals) from petroleum mining sources. Also, both policy recommendations would decrease, rather than increase, the direct plus indirect input requirements of these three industries from the coal mining sector. This economic implications, which evidently was not captured by state-of-the-art econometric models, means that neither policy recommendation is sufficient to transition the economy from petroleum to alternate energy resources see Thompson (7).

First of all, it is necessary to recognize that this new scenario of interconnected and broadly distributed infrastructures is characterized by the entanglement of policy, socio-economic, and technical factors. As an example we can refer to the measures taken in many countries for the liberalization of energy markets, which have significantly contributed to the fragility of the electric power provision as generation and distribution companies are forced to operate closer to their technical limits for the sake of securing the short-term profitability.

The Energy Policy Act of 1992 established a 1.5 cent per kWh production tax credit (PTC) for wind-powered electricity, adjusted annually for inflation. This amounts to 1.8 cents per kWh in 2005.
