a Minimum consumption represents actual 1991 consumption decreased by the quantity of the designated type of energy that would no longer have been required if

all ascertained switching from that type of energy had occurred. The minimum value includes the quantity of 1991 consumption for which switching capability was not

ascertained. b Maximum consumption represents actual 1991 consumption increased by the quantity of the designated type of energy that would have been required if all

ascertained switching into that type of energy had occurred. This value assumes that all indicated substitutions were possible simultaneously and the substitutable

amount consists of the sum of all possible switches to the designated type of energy. The estimate assumes that 1991 output remained constant. c "Electricity Receipts" represents those quantities of electricity generated off the manufacturing establishment site and available at the site for consumption. It

includes those quantities for which payment was made, quantities transferred in, quantities purchased and paid for by a central purchasing entity, and quantities for

which payment was made in kind. It does not include electricity generated onsite. "Electricity Receipts" has not been adjusted to account for any quantities that might

have been resold or transferred out. The estimates include those quantities that were ascertained switchable or not switchable, plus an additional quantity for which the

switching status was not ascertained.

Notes: To obtain a RSE percentage for any table cell, multiply the cell’s corresponding RSE column and RSE row factors. • Totals may not equal sum of

components because of independent rounding.
