In recent years, the scope of energy planning has been broadened to
include a variety of additional considerations such as
socioeconomic and environ mental impacts. The fundamental purpose
of energy planning is to formu late policy. Policy must be
formulated in response to the interests which that policy would
affect. A planning model called policy programming is developed in
this work from basic concepts of hierarchical system theory and
input-output analysis. The model is used in planning for energy
park development in a specific region. I wish to acknowledge
gratefully the suggestions of Thomas L. Saaty and Ronald Miller who
commented at length on various drafts of the manu script. Support
for this work was provided in part by the U. S. Energy Research and
Development Administration, the U. S. Federal Energy
Administration, and the University of Pennsylvania Energy Center.
