Over a 15 year period

Bntish Columbia energy
demands will moderate
somewhat over the next
fifteen years, according to a
forecast released recently by
Energy Minister R.H.
McClelland.

The forecast, prepared by
McClelland’s ministry,
predicts a modest increase of
approximately three per cent
per annum to 1986 and of
two per cent between 1986
and 1996.

By contrast, energy
demands in B.C. grew at
approximately 7 per cent
annually between 1958 and
1973, and at 4.5 per cent per

Spending an hour in a
class getting into shape for
summer may sound grim,
but, says instructor Louise
Preiswerck, you can have
fun in spite of yourself.

Preiswerck is teaching
Capilano College’s Aerobic
Dance, a fitness class which
combines the lyricism of
dance with the pracncality
of exercise. Conducted to
music, this program is
designed for non-dancers —
or dancers — or, for that
matter, anyone who is bored
with the “Sargent Major”

approach to fitness.
The concept of Aerobic
Dance originated in

California severalyears ago.
Exercises afe designed to
increase strength, flexibility,
endurance, co-ordination,
balance, rhythm and a sense
of well being, bul more than
anything they are geared to

AN

year since the emergency of
the OPEC oil cartel.

“This moderating trend 1s
an encouraging — sign,”
McClelland said. “It shows
an increasing awareness of
our need to use less energy.”

The slower growth rate is
predicated upon a number of
factors, including energy
conservation efforts, slower
population and household
growth and slower growth of
the province’s forest in-
dustry. Manufacturing,
which currently consumes
approximately half the
provinces annual energy
budget, also expected to

good about exercising.

comfortable clothing and
runners or bare feet are all
that’s necessary for this
course which will be held in
two different series — cither

greater energy efficiency.

The ministry estimates,
broken down by region, are
based on a comprehensive
assessment of requirements
of enerpy generated from
various sources.

The forecast says that
natural gas supphes_ will
meet foreseeable domestic
demands, including possibile
demands from Vancouver

Island users, as well as
existing export com-
mitments.

But the supply of oil

continues to be an area of
prime concern. The demand

B.C.energy demands will moderate

for ot! is projected to dechine
from its current 43 per cent
of total energy consumed to
approximately 39 per cent by
1996.

However, McClelland
noted that it is one of the
objectives of the province's
energy policy to reduce the
consumpton of oil to 40 per
cent before 1985. This is not
only desirable but made
necessary because the
province's oil supply is being
depleted rapidly. By 1996,
imported oil will supply 86
per cent of the province's oil
needs, compared to 77 per
cent in 1978. .

The forecast predicts an
annual growth rate in the use
of electrical power of about
3.7 per cent to 1990 and 2.2
per cent between 1990 and
1996. These figures differ
from B.C. Hydro projec-
tions, which calculate
growth at approximately 5.9
per cent per annum to 1990.

The ministry and Hydro
esumates are roughly in line
until the mid-1980s. The
divergence after 1986 results
largely from different
estimates critena.

B.C. Hydro’s forecasting
practice is to plan for
growing provincial electncal
requirements.

The ministry's estimates
are more conservative than
Hydro's, particularly over
the last part of the forecast
period. This divergence
represents an honest dif-
ference of view as to wht
the impacts of conservation
and economic factors may
have on electrical demand,
he said.
