The model is an extension of an earlier EMR total energy demand model (Department of Energy, Mines and Resources, 1977; Erdmann and Gorbet, 34 A POLICY MODEL OF CANADIAN INTERFUEL SUBSTITUTION DEMANDS 35 1978), with a greater emphasis on the problems and determinants of fuel choice by energy consumers. It is a substantial improvement on previous interfuel substitution analysis at EMR (Erdmann, 1977a). The main differences between our current and previous work on interfuel substitution relate to the specification and estimation of the market share relationships.
