When more is less

Article Abstract:

For several decades the electric utility industry has waged a public information campaign to convince customers of the environmental and financial benefits of energy conservation. Although the industry must continue to develop demand-side management techniques and programs, it must also communicate the message that some equipment, such as electric heat pumps, are more energy efficient and environmentally friendly than comparable fossil-fuel equipment. An effective way of informing the public about the benefits of increased electrification must be sought.

Saving energy with electricity

Article Abstract:

Carbon dioxide emissions can be substantially reduced through intelligent electrification, which involves replacing inefficient energy sources with electricity. Benefits derived from electricity-based technologies far outweigh those offered by fossil-fuel technologies, which are considered the primary source of harmful emissions. Aside from efficiency, electricity also permits numerous applications and provides several environmental and economic advantages.

Learning new ways to buy energy

Article Abstract:

Many commercial and industrial facilities in Texas can save energy thereby cutting associated costs. These facilities do not know how to go about such energy saving measures and need to be made aware in respect thereof. The implications of not having a proper energy management section within an organization are discussed.
