Energy Efficiency (The Definitive Guide to the Cheapest, Cleanest, Fastest Source of Energy)

Energy risk has reappeared on the corporate and social agenda with a bang and the complexity of the issues has increased many-fold since the days of the last great wave of concern that followed the oil crises of the 1970s. Steven Fawkes’ Energy Efficiency is a comprehensive guide for managers and policy-makers to the fundamental questions underpinning energy-efficiency and our responses to it. The result is the most complete assessment to-date of the barriers and opportunities associated with efficient energy utilisation. Clearly written and erudite, Steven Fawkes addresses every aspect of energy efficiency, including the huge and vitally important untapped potential offered by effective energy management and the application of existing technology. He identifies problems and how they can be mitigated, and he provides a full review of innovative energy efficiency financing options. This book is a 'must read' for anyone with an interest in energy supply and demand reduction.
