註釋

This book analyzes the potential for improving energy efficiency in industry, and reviews alternative approaches to energy rationalization programs in developing countries. To provide the framework for discussing the potential for and approaches to industrial energy rationalization, the book begins with a review of energy consumption patterns as well as the processes and fuels used in industry. It discusses typical measures for improving energy efficiency through conservation and fuel diversification. The energy-saving potential and the economics of energy utilization in the industrial sector are also reviewed. The experience of selected developed and developing countries with industrial energy rationalization programs suggests that there is a need for a balanced approach to such programs. As the book explains, the design, start up, and implementation and monitoring of these programs include a number of highly technical activities that require special government efforts. It provides details of some of the key elements of such programs. Finally, the role that financial and development institutions can play in the initiation and support of industrial energy rationalization programs is discussed.
