World Energy Projection System (WEPS)

Title: WEPS [electronic resource] : archival of world energy projection system

  • Distribution Media: 5 1/4" floppy diskettes
  • SuDoc Number: E3.11/20-5:

Abstract: The World Energy Projection System (WEPS) is a set of Lotus 123 spreadsheet programs furnished by the Energy Information Administration (EIA). This version of WEPS will reproduce projections of world consumption of total primary energy, oil, natural gas, coal, nuclear power, and "other" energy; growth rates of gross domestic product; and oil production capacity presented in the "International Energy Outlook 1992" (IEO92), DOE/EIA-0484(92). Projections from 1991 to 2010 are presented for selected countries, country groups, and the world as a whole.

A non-OPEC supply model (NOPEC92, 1992 Non-OPEC Oil Production Model) is included as part of the WEPS package, although it is a separate model in its own right which does not create data that appears directly in the IEO92. It is included here strictly for documentation purposes.

Extent of Collection: The distribution media contained a DOS WordPerfect installation manual, DOS Lotus 123 spreadsheets, a DOS ASCII batch file and *.ALL files. The DOS Lotus spreadsheets contain macros that call other Lotus files and cannot be used with other spreadsheet software. The *.ALL files contain the parameters needed for the user to format and print output files using the Lotus 1-2-3 adjunct "Allways".

Data Conversion: The DOS WordPerfect documentation was saved in ASCII text format and reformatted with the Unix "vi" file editor. The "fixed" file was saved with a .TXT file extension. For more information about data conversion, see File Processing and Quality Control.

Minimum Software Requirements: (1) Software capable of reading ASCII text files. (2) DOS Lotus 123 version 2.2.

Files: DOS ASCII files contain carriage return characters. ASCII files do not contain carriage return characters. For information about downloading these files, see Downloading Tips.
