REMI Forecast Detail

In Figure 19, the first bar in year 2007 shows that the conventional technology would reduce GDP by $1,120 million. The second bar shows that the FCM technology would reduce GDP by $660 million. Therefore, in market segment A, the FCM technology would save $460 million (= 1,120 - 660), or would reduce the cost of meeting the regulation by 40% in terms of GDP compared with the conventional technology in 2007, the first year of analysis. Figure 20 shows the estimated reductions in employment. Using the FCM technology would save 5,826 jobs in 2007 (jobs saved cannot be combined between years). Figure 21 shows the estimated reductions in personal income. Using the FCM technology would save $356 million in personal income in 2007. Over the analysis period (2007 to 2009), total savings would be $261 million in GDP and $244 million in personal income.

The estimated reductions in GDP, employment, and personal income are then shown for market segment C in Figures 22 , 23 , and 24 . In 2005, the year with the biggest impact from using FCM technology, $415 million in GDP would be saved, 5,594 jobs would be saved, and $350 million in personal income would be saved. Over the analysis period (2003 to 2007), total savings would be $982 million in GDP and $878 million in personal income.
