Hidden Gold
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1988-09)
In today's environment of lower oil prices
and increasing production, a great deal of the
momentum for energy conservation has been lost.
The majority of projects put forth for energy
conservation are capital intensive. ...
Advanced Cogeneration Control, Optimization, and Management: A Case Study
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1988-09)
The performance of cogeneration power
plants can now be assessed on line in real
time using a distributed microprocessor-based

Cogeneration- The Rest of the Story
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1988-09)
Everyone is praising the daylights out of cogeneration
these days. And while it may be the best energy system
design, there are numerous questions that should be asked
before anyone jumps on the bandwagon. We are ...
Revitalizing Your Energy Program
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1988-09)
Saving energy no longer enjoys the popularity it once did.
Most companies have drastically reduced the scope of their
energy programs and the personnel committed to that task.
The purpose of this paper is to illustrate ...
