Energy conservation and renewable energy development are integrated into one unified approach in this guide to better community energy planning. Energy professionals, urban planners, and public officials discover how to make sensible decisions about the use and promotion of the latest energy saving technology. Guidance on how to assess a city's energy context covers natural resources, land use, existing city buildings, energy supply and distribution patterns, and social and economic factors. Readers will be able to cope with energy shortages and price increases, develop and implement long range energy programs despite limited resources, heat and cool buildings efficiently at lowest possible cost, and get the most out of electric utilities. Types of energy resources covered include solar, wind, biomass, geothermal, oil, gas, and coal.
