Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

With more and more concern being expressed over the Earth's dwindling energy resources as well as rising pollution levels, the subject of energy management and conservation is becoming increasingly important. Over half of all energy consumed is used in buildings so effective management of buildings whether commercial or domestic is vital.

This book is a comprehensive text dealing with the theory and practice of the supply of energy to consumers, energy management and auditing and energy saving technology. It will be a core text on courses on energy management and building services, as well as updating professionals in the building sector.



* Comprehensive text dealing with in depth coverage of energy supply as well as energy use and conservation
* Practical advice on implementation of energy-saving technologies and assessment methods

Includes bibliographical references and index.
