Security Issues
• Production of oil concentrated into unstable areas of
the world
• Sudden supply reductions can sharply increase oil
price
• Short run demand elasticity about - 0.1 to - 0.2
• Percentage price increase will be 5 to 10 times the
percentage supply reduction
• Sudden oil price increases can lead to worldwide
recession
• Petroleum revenues fund terrorist activities

Ownership of oil industry
• The largest 13 firms – as measured by oil and
gas reserves – are all owned by nations or are
controlled by other nations
• Oil supply may be manipulated for political
purposes by those nations controlling the

Economic Issues
Crude Oil prices
• Crude Oil prices are currently high
• Prices on futures markets suggest that crude oil prices are
most likely to further increase
• World demand continues to grow
• Development of China and increase in the number of
passenger cars
• India is likely to follow
• Expectation that conventional oil supply may peak soon
• Incentives for dominant suppliers to limit investment in new
production capacity so as to keep prices
• Incentives for dominant suppliers to keep future prices
uncertain so as to limit competitive investments

Price Risk
• Possible to estimate probability distribution of future
oil prices by observing options based on the futures
market
• Puts and calls are priced in the market
• Prices of puts and calls reflect the beliefs of
market participants about price uncertainty
• Significant uncertainty in the near term
• Uncertainty increases over time
• Data quality
• Relatively good through 2007
• OK, but limited to December 2009
• Risk of either very low or very high prices

Economy-Wide Impacts of All LED
• Lighting use: 21% of all electricity use
– All LED saves about 60% of this electricity in long run:
• 13% of all electricity use – after all adjustments
– Adjustment time:
• How long until LED system efficacy reaches 120 lm/wt?
5 years?
• 50% adoption: 15 years afterwards?
– 50% adoption will save 6.5% of all electricity use
• Electricity impact: Perhaps 6.5% reduction in 20 years
• Electricity cost impact
– Total cost of U.S. electricity
• Retail: $300 Billion per year
• Variable Costs: say $200 Billion per year
– 6.5% of $300 Billion dollars = $20 Billion per year
– 6.5% of $200 Billion dollars = $13 Billion per year
Example: Fuel Economy of
Light Duty Vehicles
Forces Shaping Energy Use
• Transport Sector
– Chosen Level of Mobility
• Income and Free-time Dependant
• Urban/Suburban/rural land use patterns
– Modes of Transport (personal vehicle,
airplane, bus, trains)
• Value of Time
• Costs of Alternatives (Influenced by oil price)
• Availability of Alternatives

Political
Change of Senate and House Majorities
• CO2 mitigation will be a major push
– Senate Energy Committee leadership change
• Cap-and-Trade system for carbon management under
debate
– Study Group Developed
– Group does not have rights to draft legislation
• More direct regulations are likely also
Supreme Court Decision on Carbon
Dioxide
• Carbon Dioxide can be regulated under the Clean Air
Act
• States can regulate carbon dioxide emissions
California’s AB 32
• Market based instruments
• Allowed but not required
• May face opposition from legislature
• Development of Cap-and-Trade system
• Under way through Cal EPA and CARB
• Executive Order on Carbon content of fuels
• Average Content
• Including hydrogen and electricity
• Trading system
• To be designed
Other California Rules
• Autos: Pavley Bill
• CO2 limits on average of new vehicles
• Under court challenge
• But Supreme Court decision should help greatly
• Utility regulation
• Renewable Portfolio Standard
• Responsibility for CO2 content of electricity, where
ever the electricity generated
• Other regulations
• Buildings standards
• Plug load standards
Political Bottom Line
• Many changes to be expected
• Regulations still be developed
• High payoff for getting involved in the process
• Many groups are involved; interests vary across
groups
• Personal involvement can make great difference
Policy Agenda
Bottom Line
• Increases of economic efficiency can be
accomplished through decreases of energy use
– energy efficiency improvements
– In principle, based on understanding of
market failures
– In practice, based on observations of options
and human choices
– In practice, based on technology and
systems innovation
• The potential, I believe, is large for
improvements in energy efficiency
Get Prices Right
• Oil
– The world oil price is passed through to the
economy
– International security externality not included
– CO2 externality not included
– Other travel externalities not included
• Congestion
• Highway/Road mortality/injury
• Criteria pollutants
– Thus price we pay for gasoline is too low
Get Prices Right
• US oil price should include an international
security externality premium/tax/fee
– Gasoline tax
– Higher CAFE standards on light duty vehicles
• Prices for oil substitutes should not be
kept artificially high
– Import tax on ethanol -- $.54 per gallon -should be eliminated
Get Prices Right
• CO2
– Need US national carbon dioxide cap-and-trade
system
• The United States could implement a cap and trade
system even if we do not ratify Kyoto protocol
– System can be implemented
• The nations that have ratified the Kyoto protocol
now are operating such a system
• Currently states are beginning to implement such
systems, but a national system would be preferable
• We have experience in cap-and-trade
– Acid Rain SOx trading
– RECLAIM program for criteria pollutants
– Chicago Climate Exchange
Encourage Technology Development
• President Bush state of the Union speech
– Call for more research and development
– Primarily supply technologies
• Equally important – if not more important – energy efficiency
technologies
– Rapid change possible through more efficient vehicles
• Hybrid electric vehicles
• Plug-in hybrids
• Electric vehicles
• Longer run: Possibly hydrogen vehicles
– Buildings:
• Lighting: light emitting diodes
• Building design, technologies, operating processes
Encourage Technology
Development
• Governmental R&D
– Federal
– States (California Public Interest Energy
Research Program)
• R&D incentives
– In energy bill
• Technology competitions
• Green labeling
Encourage Entrepreneurial Efforts
• May look like no policy at all.
• Encourage technical and market experimentations
– Some will ultimately make it big; others will not.
– But the genius of Silicon Valley involves
entrepreneurial efforts, risk-taking, pioneering efforts.
– Some of these will be failures, some successes.
– Successes will live on, grow to become the household
names.
• will spawn more entrepreneurial challenges
• The failures will typically lead to different attempts,
some successes, some failures.
– Ahead of time impossible to know which will disappear
and which will be the next Google.
– Lighting, vehicles are poised for fundamental change.
Adopt Sector-Specific policies
• Autos
– Higher CAFE standards
– Restructure CAFE standards with marketable efficiency
credits
– Labeling using common metrics people ($ per year?)
• Electricity
– Renewable Portfolio Standards; Carbon Dioxide
Adders
• Buildings
– Building Efficiency Standards
• Appliances
– Appliance efficiency standards; Energy Star labeling
