Energy efficiency From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation search This article is about energy efficiency as a ratio. For the term as used in energy economics, see Efficient energy use See also: Energy conversion efficiency In physics and engineering , including mechanical and electrical engineering energy efficiency is a dimensionless number, with a value between and or, when multiplied by 100, is given as a percentage. The energy efficiency of a process, denoted by eta , is defined as where output is the amount of mechanical work (in watts ) or energy released by the process (in joules ), and input is the quantity of work or energy used as input to run the process. Due to the principle of conservation of energy , energy efficiency within a closed system can never exceed 100%.

Even working directly with the product teams at Intel, I sometimes have difficulty keeping pace. The good news is that there is a tremendous opportunity today to be captured thanks to this rapid innovation, as well as a steady stream of advanced technology that IT can use to better support business and gain a competitive advantage. Recently I was interviewed by Tim Phillips from the Register about the current 45nm Quad-Core Intel Xeon products and the next generation Intel platforms based on the Nehalem processor.

Americans Want Energy Efficiency November 16, 2005 Americans want to see federal funding, tax incentives and appliance efficiency standards to promote renewable energy and energy-efficient technology programs, according to a recently released poll. For the third year in a row The public opinion poll, "America Speaks Out on Energy: A Survey of 1996 Post-Election Views", was conducted from Nov. 9-14 among a sample of 1,200 registered voters and has a margin of error of +/-2.9 percent. It was conducted for the Sustainable Energy Coalition by the Republican polling firm of Research/Strategy/Management Inc. of Lanham, Md. With most Americans viewing global climate change as a serious environmental threat, the majority favor the United States signing an international agreement to set a binding deadline for reducing greenhouse gas emissions, according to the poll. And as Congress and many states consider legislation to deregulate the electric utility industry, voters made clear that they want provisions included to mandate renewable energy, energy efficiency and environmental protection and they want utilities and shareholders—not consumers—to bear the cost for uneconomic "stranded nuclear assets". The 15 questions addressed federal funding of energy research and development, the U.S. EPA Green Lights and Energy Star programs, nuclear pyroprocessing, tax support for ethanol and other energy sources, appliance efficiency standards, the seriousness of global climate change, and an international agreement to control greenhouse gas emissions.

Mt Best - Australia Solar House Tour Energy efficiency Power station Solar heating ... Home Energy efficiency How do we measure energy efficiency? I consider so-called "star" energy rating misleading, because it prevents people from understanding the Nature of the energy they use, not to mention reasons and consequences for their energy waste. "Star" system prevents people from seeking devices and lifestyle that are truly energy efficient. Finding out what a "star rating" really means in terms of energy efficiency (and waste) is impossible. (Please try) Those who are impressed by a "6 star" fridge that consumes 210kWh a year won't even begin to imagine a fridge that consumes 40 kWh a year. (Have you seen it here Another way some people measure "efficiency" is by the amount of money any given gadget costs them to run. While more efficient gadget will consume less energy and will cost less to operate, thinking in terms of money is a real barrier for improving energy efficiency. People settle for what they can afford, and if they can afford it - they don't care about improving anything. They assume that energy supply is unlimited and the only limit is what they can afford.

Efficiency with Longevity Efficiency means nothing if it's only in the short term. By always using modern and innovative technologies, using quality materials, and maintaining our notably high standards in the manufacturing process, Trane systems start efficient and stay efficient for years to come. Could replacing your current system with a Trane comfort system save you hundreds of dollars a year? Check our Efficiency Rating Chart below to find out. Why a Higher Efficiency Rating Can Save Energy Estimated Annual Cooling Cost Comparisons If your current air conditioner or heat pump is more than 10 years old, it could be operating at lower than 8.0 SEER. Compare the estimated annual cooling bill of an 8.00 SEER system to that of a new system with a higher SEER, such as Trane's 11.00, 12.00, 13.00, 14.00, or 19.50. For instance, if the annual cooling bill of an 8.00 SEER system was $1000, it could potentially cost only $410 for a 19.50 SEER system, or an annual savings of 59%. Now that makes dollars and sense, doesn't it? Potential energy savings may vary depending on your personal lifestyle, system settings, equipment maintenance, local climate, actual construction and installation of equipment and duct system.
