Abstract

The embodied energy trade flows concept is advanced as a useful technique for analyzing energy interdependence among regional economies. An analysis of the energy trade balances of Washington State is used to illustrate the theory. The embodied energy trade flow concept provides a broader perspective than alternative techniques for studying relationships between energy-producing and energy-consuming regions.
