Maintenance and Operations of Schools for Energy Efficiency
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1986)
Maintenance and operations of schools with
energy efficiency as a priority can reduce annual
utility costs 3 to 30 percent. Most school
districts do not have an organized plan for
tracking energy usage or cost. Energy ...
Absorption Cooling Optimizes Thermal Design for Cogeneration
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1986)
Contrary to popular concept, in most cases,
thermal energy is the real VALUE in cogeneration
and not the electricity. The proper consideration
of the thermal demands is equal to or more important than the electrical demands. ...
