disaggregated by the energy resource types listed in 
subparagraphs (A) through (H) of paragraph (3) 
and expressed in British thermal units or mega-
watts, as appropriate. 
‘‘(3) DOMESTIC
STRATEGIC
PRODUCTION
OB-
JECTIVE.—The Secretary shall include in the Strat-
egy a domestic strategic production objective based 
on the estimate in paragraph (2) for the develop-
