This report responds to a request received from Senator Byron Dorgan on July 31, 2003, to perform an analysis of the energy and oil savings that would result from the Senate (H.R.6.EAS) and House (H.R.6.EH) energy bills in support of the Senate and House conferees. The study is based primarily on analyses EIA has previously done for studies requested by Congress. It includes analysis of the Renewable Portfolio Standard, Renewable Fuels Standard, production in the Alaskan National Wildlife Refuge, the construction of an Alaskan Natural Gas pipeline, and various tax provisions.
