Because the power industry is anticipating greatly increased generating capacity requirements in the 1990s, political controversy over electricity demand and supply is likely to return to--and perhaps surpass--the level of rancor experienced during the 1970s. This book seeks to bring together an extensive collection of articles, proceedings, case studies, and other relevant accounts of the state of the art. It is the most comprehensive work to date on how the concept of open planning has been put into practice by progressive electric companies.
