dc.description.abstract | Owners or managers want to conserve energy, however, they have limited funds. Energy conservation must stand on its merits economically if it is to successfully compete for funds. There are two basic types of approaches to achieving energy conservation in any facility. The first is operating and maintenance improvements which can result in a 15% reduction at a very low investment. The second approach is the major retrofit of electro/mechanical systems and can result in additional 15 to 30% reduction but requires major capital expenditure with extended simple payback periods. Each of these areas require a different approach to evaluate and implement the energy saving. | en |
