SynopsisThe main features of energy demand in Scotland are described and compared, in respect of total energy use and the shares supplied by the different fuels, with the figures for the United Kingdom and other countries. Recent trends in demand are examined to illustrate how the present position has been reached and factors likely to influence each fuel's share in the future are outlined. The role of the energy industries themselves is discussed and the scope for new initiatives by these industries indicated.

Set Up

Solutions of cobalt nitrate sealed in vials were circulated to all clinical chemistry laboratories in the United Kingdom. Participants reported wavelengths of maximum absorbance together with the actual absorbances obtained. The results were compared with values obtained from the National Physical Laboratory. The results show a wide scatter, and several instruments were extensively repaired or replaced as a result of the survey. The most recently marketed machines had the best performance, and it is suggested that regular quality control and maintenance of the machines is vital. It is intended to set up a scheme for regular monitoring of spectrophotometer performance.
