A comprehensive overview of the different technologies involved in electroefficiency, outlining monitoring and control concepts and practical design techniques used in industrial applications This book brings a practical focus to the subject of electrical energy efficiency. Although this is a hot topic in climate change abatement and EU policy, the practical steps required in terms of equipment design and selection and system design aspects, are less often covered. Divided into three parts, this book draws these strands together and promotes routine implementation of good energy efficient practice. Recognises the importance of the minimisation of energy use by design and supplies practical advice Provides up-to-date information on today's global policies, technologies and economic realities in a single, synergistic text Detailed theory and practical applications enable engineers to find solutions for problems related to electroefficiency Uniquely brings together disparate topics in a highly practical, single-source reference
