| Summary |
"This book outlines ways to implement energy efficient practices, equipment, and processes; foster better resource management; and create a smaller carbon footprint. It will prove to be an excellent resource for utilities, government agencies, program administrators, energy service companies, and environmental groups. A successful demand-side management (DSM) program results in the education, implementation, and adoption of energy efficient practices that reduce not only peak energy usage but also overall usage and carbon output. It can also help to curb escalating electricity prices for consumers and promote overall conservation of stretched resources."--Jacket |
