- Description:
- This report focuses on the impacts of climate on energy and the dynamic effects of climate and energy on Idaho’s economy. The changing climate carries implications for planning, policy, and social impacts at the international, national, regional, state, and local levels. Concerns surrounding energy and climate center around the availability of primary energy resources necessary for an increasing population and increasing electricity consumption in commercial and household heating and cooling. The relationships among climate, energy production, and the economy are complex. There is a reinforcing loop between energy and the economy; as the economy grows, more energy is required for both production and consumption. Increased energy demand can exceed available output, creating a secondary balancing loop between the economy and energy; as prices increase, costs of economic output also increase and overall output is decreased.
