Integration of efficient design technologies
- ed.
This book brings together in one volume many of the most important developments in energy-saving, cost-reducing methodologies. Technological advances are balanced with reports on strategies for achieving highest possible building efficiencies. Written by 124 leading experts from the US and abroad, this comprehensive volume can aid engineers, managers, and planners improve operations of their facilities, whether large or small. Among the concepts which are reviewed are: lighting system optimization; cogeneration market opportunities and applications; small scale cogeneration developments; new controls technologies; microcomputer applications for improved building efficiencies; building automation; HVAC system optimization; chiller optimization; electrical system optimization; steam system optimization; and getting the best natural gas and electric rates. Latest advances in load management are evaluated, and methods of working most effectively with electric and gas utilities are reviewed by professionals whose comments are based on practical experience. All 93 chapters have been abstracted separately for inclusion on the Energy Data Base.
