A Summary of the DARPA Energy and Materials Shortages Programs, Fiscal Years 1972-1976

Abstract

This report presents a summary of the several research efforts by DARPA during fiscal years 1972-1976 for investigations in the fields of energy and materials shortages. It is essentially a summary program completion report. It presents an overview, broken down into four major areas: Energy Availability and National Security Considerations, Alternate Sources of Energy at Military Installations, Energy Alternatives in Propulsion, and Potential Materials Shortages and Their Implications for National Security. The overview is supported by the appendices, each addressing a separate area of investigation.
