Energy Efficiency in Industry

  • 1018 Accesses

Abstract

Electricity-based enabling technologies include transformers, electric lighting, electric drives, and arguably the fluid machinery they power, such as fans and pumps. The technical fundamentals are briefly described in each case in order to create an understanding of the efficiency measures in detail. For each basic technology, the findings are summarized in recommendations. Finally, there is an outlook on electricity-based heat generation, which forms the transition to the following main chapter.
