From the Conclusion: Canada is a major consumer of energy and has depended on oil for much of its growth...Other fuels and sources of energy will have to be developed in Canada in the next two decades to supplement and substitute for dwindling supplies of conventional oil...Wind, solar and perhaps tidal power may be able to contribute in a small way...Natural gas, heavy oil, oil sands, hydro and nuclear power are available...All of these sources of enery will be required but they will still be inadequate to meet total needs in Canada. Clearly coal, Canada's major energy resource, must be exploited. Coal is available in western Canada in abundance, it can be produced at costs that are competitive with other sources of new energy, and it can be used efficiently and safely. Its development can assist in providing Canada's domestic needs, it can provide spin-off beneftis to otlher industries, and it can help to improve our balance of trade ane expenditures abroad. Substantial benefits will acrue to Canada as a whole, and to western Canada in particular, from the exploitation of this important resource.

Within the context of Canada's future energy demand and declining conventional crude oil production, this report examines recent advances in coal liquids technology and assesses the potential role of coal-derived synthetic fuels in the evolving energy technology mix. The model used in this study allocates, on an optimal basis, all the relevant Canadian energy resources - conventional and frontier crude oil, natural gas, bitumen, and coal - among the potentially available technologies and also over time. The supply cost analysis, production and on-stream development scenarios presented for upgraders, mined oil sands plants and coal liquids facilities are based on a complete re-assessment of the potential costs of all of the major energy supply options, measured against a re-evaluation of the Institute's CREED model and a linear programming model developed by the Alberta Research Council. A detailed evaluation, undertaken by the MITRE Corp. in the U.S., of recent advances in direct coal liquefaction together with a study published by the Electric Power Research Institute on coal/oil co-processing, formed the basis of the state-of-the-art coal liquids technology.
