You might try contacting the DOE Office of Scientific and Technical Information
in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, (615) 576-1188.  This office maintains an Energy
Science and Technology Data Base (EDB) which includes "information on all
scientific and technical aspects of fossil, renewable, and nuclear energy
sources; energy conservation, consumption, and utilization; energy policy;
the environmental effects of energy production and utilization; economic
and social aspects of energy technologies; applied and basic biomedical
studies; and basic studies of geosciences, physics, chemistry, biology,
and engineering".
