“ENERGY QUALITY, NET ENERGY AND THE COMING ENERGY TRANSITION”



Cutler J. Cleveland, Boston University





Prof. Cleveland is an internationally known expert in energy, energy  
policy, and the complex issues that shape energy supply and use  
patterns. Among many other positions he is the editor-in-chief of The  
Encyclopedia of Energy.

His talk will focus on several aspects of energy supply, including  
the thermodynamic and physical quality of the supply, as well as the  
energy required to produce and distribute energy, and the effects  
these will have on future energy sources. His research work has  
looked at the economic, geological, engineering and institutional  
forces that determined the historic pattern of petroleum discovery  
and production in the U.S., and then used that information to  
forecast future supply, and to analyze U.S. energy policy.


Time:  12:00 – 1:00 p.m.

Place:  Room 33-116
