- In response to an issue relating to the coupling of economic growth to
- the growth in energy demand I would recommend "Delinking energy consumption
- and economic growth - the German experience" by Ulf Hansen, Professor
- of Power Energy, University of Essen, in the 9-90 issue of _Energy
- Policy_. It discusses how the FR of Germany compiled a 33% growth in its
- GDP between 1973 and 1988 while also increasing its energy consumption
- by 3%. Of the developed countries, Germany and Japan have two of the
- three lowest energy intensities (along with Denmark). Canada and the
- US are the two highest.
