Using the projected demands from Chapter 2 and the available supply identified above, the adequacy of supply to meet future demands (with appropriate reliability and redundancy buffers) can be evaluated. Figure 3-1 shows the projections discussed in Chapter 2 with the supply availability. Table 3-4 summarizes this data for select years.
