Energy Efficiency or the Efficient Use of Energy Resources? [PDF]

open access: possibleEnergy Sources, 1994
Abstract This article distinguishes between energy efficiency and the economically efficient use of energy resources. Policies intended to enhance energy efficiency are unlikely to contribute to the economically efficient use of energy and are therefore likely to waste resources.

Barriers to energy end-use efficiency [PDF]

open access: possibleEnergy Policy, 1992
Abstract Recent findings indicate that some alternative energy promote equity, efficiency, and self-reliance and are both economical and sustainable. The Asian Development Bank therefore initiated a case study to formulate energy strategies which could contribute to the solution of both local and global energy problems. The study focuses on technical

Efficient Use of Energy at Universities [PDF]

open access: possible, 1998
An important segment of the tertiary sector, namely the universities and research laboratories, usually remains outside the control of those decision-makers in charge of implementing Energy Efficiency and/or Environment Protection Programmes. In this sub-sector, the energy consumption, for example, is far from being optimised.

INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGIES FOR AN EFFICIENT USE OF ENERGY

Acta Horticulturae, 2008
Efficient use of energy in greenhouses has been subject of research and development for decades. The final energy efficiency, e.g. the amount of energy used per unit of product, is determined by improvements in energy conversion, reductions in energy use for environmental control and the efficiency of crop production.

Efficient use of energy revisited

Physics Today, 1980
In the past several years everyone has become considerably more aware of the problems of energy supply and demand. Although extensive resources of energy are available in principle, energy that is both cheap to extract and cheap to use—such as the oil and natural gas to which we have become accustomed—is very limited.

Promotion of an Efficient Energy Use and Use of Renewable Sources of Energy

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2013
This paper investigates the question in what extent energy managers and energy users are informed on competitive energy supply, efficient energy uses, and on potentials to increase production and uses of renewable sources of energy. The important role in the dissemination of knowledge on more efficient energy uses and on a greater uses of renewable ...

The efficiency of the rational use of energy

Applied Energy, 2007
From an ecological point of view, the reduction of the “consumption” of energy is the first aim. The reduction of the CO2-emissions is only a subsidiary aim. On the other hand in industry, the reduction of the costs for energy is the main motive power to increase the efficiency of energy use.

Efficient Use of Energy in the Industry

2017
It’s well known that energy is the most important input of the industry. The energy sector must be kept under control, observed and planned carefully for the future in developing countries; migration to large cities, the altering and improving life standards, and the development in many industries have increased the demand for energy rapidly and ...
