Energy conservation: A case study for a large manufacturing plant

The methods of formulating, implementing, and evaluating a conservation program in a commercial building or light industrial plant are examined and the results of one case study are presented. In commercial and light industrial applications, most energy is consumed to maintain proper environmental conditions; light levels, heat levels, and fresh air levels. This report presents a method that can be used by many commercial and light industrial concerns to establish a conservation program. Guidelines are presented that can be used to examine environmental conditions and determine ways they must be changed. A system of program analysis is also presented.
