The first, as has been indicated by the Policy Committee Statement, is to illustrate the main features of Western Europe’s energy position and the possible role of nuclear power in meeting the problems of an energy-deficit industriai economy. A secondary objective is to outline certain implications of the emerging competitive interrelation between nuclear energy and oil required for electric power plants.
To undertake this study the Project was fortunate in securing, through Professor Max F. Millikan, Director, the assistance of the Center for International Studies at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Under the direction of Professor P. N Rosenstein-Rodan, the Italy Project of the Center has acquired a rich background of economie research and consultative experience, here and in Italy, on the growth and prospect of this economy. Professor Rosenstein-Rodan formerly was head of the economic advisory staff, International Bank for Reconstruction and Development, and prior to that was on the faculty of the University of London.
Joining with Professor Rosenstein-Rodan in the preparation of this study is I.M.D. Little, Fellow of Nuffield College, formerly a senior officer in the Offices of the Cabinet (Treasury), and the author of The Price of fuel, Oxford, 1953.
Almost all the research for the study was carried on in Italy 1955-57, in connection with the Center’s project there. Many persons here and in Italy have contributed to the report. In Italy the following organizations have supplied Information and advice: ANIDEL (National Association of Producers and Distnbutors of Electric Energy); SVIMEZ (Association for the Development of the South); and IRI (Institute for Industriai Reconstruction). Most valuable advice has also been obtained from Professors Francesco Giordani, P. Saranceno, Ing C. Buonocore (Naples) and Dr. P. Matteo (ANIDEL).
