Gain a clearer understanding of the ways in which smart electrification can lead to both decreased energy consumption and reduced CO 2 emissions…

SAVING ENERGY AND REDUCING CO 2 EMISSIONS WITH ELECTRICITY By Clark W. Gellings Through different applications, electricity provides the energy required for light, heat,comfort, and mechanical work. In order to sustain society’s expectation for comfort, convenience and productivity, it will remain necessary to continue to seek and find reasonable quantities of energy in forms which are accessible, affordable and have modest or zero environmental impacts. Without question, this need will lead to increased electrification, and a decrease in – and possible elimination of – the use of fossil fuels. This in turn will call for an international imperative to make existing uses of electricity both efficient and practical. This book will guide the reader toward a clearer vision of that goal, with explanations of the concept of electrification, along with CO 2 reductions through expanded end-use applications of electricity. Topics will include electric cars; airport, seaport, railroad and mining electrification; industrial uses of electricity in a variety of processes; residential building use of electricity; and enhancing energy efficiency and demand response.

Gain a clearer understanding of the forces driving critical new developments in energy efficiency and renewable energy technology...

MEGATRENDS FOR ENERGY EFFICIENCY AND RENEWABLE ENERGY By Michael F. Hordeski What are the major developments and trends which are emerging and evolving to set the course for meeting the growing energy needs of the modern world? This comprehensive book explores this compelling and complex topic, examining the driving and often competing forces which come into play as we move forward. Currently 85% of the world’s energy systems are powered by coal, oil and other fossil fuels. However, as growing concern for the climate crisis and carbon emissions move to the forefront, while simultaneously it becomes clear that the end of cheap oil is in sight, the need for increased emphasis on both energy efficiency and alternative sources of energy can no longer be ignored. The author provides an overview of the ongoing energy mix evolution, current technology and alternative fuel developments, sustainable building trends, evolving energy efficiency practices, and more. The technical and economic tradeoffs of renewables, as well as planning, siting installation, operation, and safety considerations are covered. A full chapter is devoted to alternative fuel sources and fueling methods. Also examined are grid integration and transmission issues as they relate to alternative energy sources. The influence of energy and environmental policy, greenhouse gas restrictions, and the role of the business community are fully discussed. ISBN: 0-88173-632-5 6 x 9, 302 pp., Illus.

Get up to speed on the latest development in hydrogen-based energy technologies...

HYDROGEN & FUEL CELLS: ADVANCES IN TRANSPORTATION & POWER By Michael F. Hordeski The hydrogen car has been proposed as the solution to our oil problems, but how would it work, and what potential problems associated with it? This book attempts to address these questions, and to provide specifics about current developments toward a hydrogen-based energy infrastructure. In a major push to establish and commercialize fuel cell technologies,most major auto manufacturers are investing billions in development programs. A less public, but perhaps more important development is occurring in stationary power sources that use fuel cell technology. What would a hydrogen infrastructure look like? Fueling stations could be small electrolysis plants that produce hydrogen from water. Photovoltaic cells could also be used at fueling stations to power for electrolysis. Hydrogen fueling stations have already opened in California, Washington, DC and Europe. The technology is being pushed by economics as oil prices continue to rise with dwindling supplies. This book offers the reader an informed look at the current state of fuel cell power and transportation technology, and where it’s headed. ISBN: 0-88173-561-2 6 x 9, 290 pp, Illus.

Your up-to-the-minute IAQ resource, providing a comprehensive approach to effective IAQ management and mitigation practices...

MANAGING INDOOR AIR QUALITY FIFTH EDITION By H.E. Burroughs, C.I.A.Q.P., and Shirley J. Hansen, Ph.D. This newly revised and updated practical desk reference is structured to serve as a guide and information resource—both on treating existing indoor air problems effectively, and on preventing costly IAQ problems from occurring in the first place. Finding solutions to indoor air quality problems is often a complex, multi-disciplined endeavor. A single discipline approach from the environmental engineer, the industrial hygienist, or the medical doctor, unfortunately tends to narrow both the control and the treatment options. This book cuts across these professions to offer those concerned with the total facility, a broader, more comprehensive approach to managing indoor air quality and mitigating indoor air quality problems. Topics covered also include updated ASHRAE standards and information, expanded discussion of greening and sustainability, building security and mold-related issues, current diagnostics and remediation practices, and the latest information on filtering.

Learn to apply the design principles and technologies which can best be used to achieve efficient, optimally performing lighting systems in buildings…

QUALITY LIGHTING FOR HIGH PERFORMANCE BUILDINGS By Michael Stiller In the United States, buildings account for 40% of primary energy use, 72% of electricity consumption, and 39% of CO2 emissions. Indoor lighting accounts for a large portion of our energy use, and we sorely need to develop better, more efficient systems to illuminate our institutions and places of commerce as well as our homes. But as we push for greater efficiencies and reduced life-cycle impacts, and as new green construction codes and standards are adopted, it is imperative that we avoid sacrificing good lighting design that enhances our productivity, our comfort, and our health. With this in mind, this book provides an overview of the basic concepts of quality, indoor lighting, and explains concepts like visual comfort, visual interest, and integrated design as they relate to the practice of lighting design. Energy efficient lighting technologies, including LED lighting and digital control systems, and design strategies that increase visual comfort and productivity are discussed in plain language, and examined in a straightforward way to give the reader, whether an architect, interior designer, engineer, building trades professional, or student, a broad understanding of the art and science of energy efficient quality lighting.

POWER TRANSMISSION & DISTRIBUTION SECOND EDITION By Anthony J. Pansini The continually increasing dependence on elec­tricity in practically ev­ery on of life’s en­deav­ors calls for im­provements in the quality stan­dards of its supply. The de­regu­lation of electric (and other) utilities, the events of Sep­tem­ber 11, 2001, and the blackouts on northeast North America, Lon­don and the Italian pen­in­sula em­pha­size this need. This book takes a look at our current trans­ mission systems and how loop circuits can sub­stan­tially im­prove the reliability of trans­mission lines, essen­tially to provide a two-way feed to the consumer – insuring con­ti­nuity of service should a fault develop on the circuit. Dis­tri­bution systems are also cov­ered, with in­for­mation in­cluded on how small gen­er­ating units can be connected directly to the dis­tri­bution system, in the same manner as in larger cogenerating units.

FACILITY MANAGER’S HANDBOOK Joseph F. Gustin The “bricks and mortar” issues of facility man­agement – HVAC, lighting, elec­ trical, plumbing, space allo­cation, se­cu­rity and grounds main­te­nance – con­tinue to be at the core the facility manager’s role. However, the pro­cesses involved in addressing these areas have be­come more com­plex. The pro­lif­eration of regu­ latory man­dates, worker com­pen­sation issues, increased em­ployee liti­gation, and violence in the work­place have re­de­fined the role of the facility manager beyond “gatekeeper” to that of full-scale operations man­ager. This book address all of these issues, and pro­vides a mul­ti­tude of tested ideas, procedures and examples for successfully and cost-effec­tively managing fa­cility operations, offering a pan­oramic view of the process by isolating the key areas the facility manager must address, in­cluding real estate, space and change man­agement, in­door air quality, emer­gency preparedness and re­sponse planning, commu­ ni­cations sys­tems, regu­latory mandates and more.

EFFECTIVELY MANAGING NATURAL GAS COSTS

By John Studebaker Natural gas purchasing is generally deregulated on a federal or in­ter­state basis. However, intrastate, there are many con­ditions that come into play which typically trans­late into higher costs for the commer­cial or in­dus­ trial user. This book is intended to serve as com­pre­hen­sive ref­erence to be used by the natural gas pur­chaser to sort out both po­ten­tial pitfalls that can nega­tively impact gas costs, and oppor­tu­nities for sig­nifi­cant savings available to the informed user. Each step in the process of natural gas pro­duction and delivery is thor­oughly ex­am­ined, in­cluding pro­duction, inter/intrastate trans­por­tation, regu­lation, cost factors, local dis­tri­bution, com­pany struc­tures, and de­regu­lation pro­cesses. Also fully covered is the natu­ral gas LDC billing pro­cess, and related savings. ISBN: 0‑88173‑499-3 6 x 9, Hardcover, 325 pp., Illus.
