Year: 2007 Language: english Author: Wayne C. Turner & Steve Doty Genre: Handbook Publisher: The Fairmont Press, Inc. Edition: Sixth ISBN: 0-88173-543-4 Format: PDF Quality: eBook Pages count: 924 Description: Business, industry and government organizations have all been under tremendous economic and environmental pressures in the last few years. Being economically competitive in the global marketplace and meeting increasing environmental standards to reduce air and water pollution have been the major driving factors in most of the recent operational cost and capital cost investment decisions for all organizations. Energy management has been an important tool to help organizations meet these critical objectives for their short term survival and long-term success. The problems that organizations face from both their individual and national perspectives include: • Meeting more stringent environmental quality standards, primarily related to reducing global warming and reducing acid rain. Energy management helps improve environmental quality. For example, the primary culprit in global warming is carbon dioxide, CO2. Equation 1.1, a balanced chemistry equation involving the combustion of methane (natural gas is mostly methane), shows that 2.75 pounds of carbon dioxide is produced for every pound of methane combusted. Thus, energy management, by reducing the combustion of methane can dramatically reduce the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and help reduce global warming. Commercial and industrial energy use accounts for about 45 percent of the carbon dioxide released from the burning of fossil fuels, and about 70 percent of the sulfur dioxide emissions from stationary sources. Energy management skills are important to people in many organizations, and certainly to people who perform duties such as energy auditing, facility or building management, energy and economic analysis, and maintenance. The number of companies employing professionally trained energy managers is large and growing. For some of these people, energy management will be their primary duty, and they will need to acquire in-depth skills in energy analysis as well as knowledge about existing and new energy using equipment and technologies. For others—such as maintenance managers—energy management skills are simply one more area to cover in an already full plate of duties and expectations. The authors are writing this Energy Management Handbook for both of these groups of readers and users.
