Dictionary of Energy Efficiency Technologies by Michael
F.Hordeski
This book is intended to be a comprehensive guide to terms and topics crucial to energy
conservation methodology and technology. The Dictionary of Energy Efficiency
Technologies encompasses the full range of energy conservation while presenting and
illuminating practical methods and techniques.
It provides a ready-reference on important topics including Energy Management,
Control Networks, Building Controls, Micro-Turbine Generation, Cogeneration,
Information Monitoring and Diagnostic Systems, Power Quality, Web-based Remote
Access, Fuel Cells and Distributed Generation. These are all areas that are of much
importance in this era of costly energy and a changing marketplace.
Today, new technologies are creating new opportunities for updating and increasing
energy efficiency. This age of computer and electronic technology allows controls to
become more active and rapidly react to record and diagnose problems. As energy
restructuring continues to unfold nationwide, there is an increasing need of specialized
knowledge for both users and providers. The growing need for this kind of special
knowledge is the reason behind this book
