Energy Optimization Industry Review
Report Highlights
INTRODUCTION
Energy prices go up and down. But whatever the cost, those who optimize their use of energy for efficiency have an economic edge over the competition.
It used to be a simple matter of switching to the lowest cost source, be it oil, gas or electricity. But today the job of staying ahead is becoming more difficult. New technology is providing a myriad of supply options to energy users.
Prices are becoming more negotiable. Advanced generators and engines, controllers and back ups-even lighting-can yield double digit savings. More and more es are supplementing their power requirements with cogenerators; many are producing all their energy.
These days, how you use energy is as important as where you get it.
