(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1992-04)Natural gas is abundant, clean burning, and cost competitive with other fuels. In addition to superior economic fundamentals, the expanded use of natural gas will be enhanced by political and industry leaders. Natural gas ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1988-09)A decision to project finance a 110 megawatt combined cycle cogeneration facility in 1986 in place of conventional internal financing greatly changed the way in which natural gas was normally procured by Union Carbide ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory, 1988-09)As a result of economic and regulatory changes, the natural gas marketplace now offers multiple options for purchasers. The purpose of this panel is to discuss short-term purchasing options and how to take advantage of ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory, 1988-09)"Many changes have occurred in recent months in both federal and state natural gas regulation. Those changes have increased the options of industrial energy consumers for purchasing and moving natural gas. This panel ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2010-08)In Taiwan’s humid environment, the application of natural ventilation is an essential passive strategy for high performance buildings. However, conventional architectural design tools are rarely capable of analyzing the ...

(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2008)Miura Boiler is a world leader in boiler technology with manufacturing facilities in Japan, China, Korea, Taiwan and Brantford, Ontario. The company, which began operations in 1927, is committed to technologies that save ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1985-05)A relatively small cogenerator may find it difficult to negotiate a favorable cogeneration contract with a relatively large utility. This paper will tell prospective cogenerators some things they can do to make sure the ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1986-06)The implementation of a cogeneration project or other qualifying facility (QF) requires the development of contractual relationships with one or more electric utilities. The relationships may involve the application of ...
