ENERGY CONSERVATION

ABSTRACT

• The process of liberalization of the Indian  economy  is rapidly progressing and it is expected togather further momentum in the coming years 
• The demand  for  electricity is growing at a  much faster rate than the generation and supply of electricity
• The shortage of electric power will have cascading effect on  industrial production & economic development .The shortage of power can be met by addition to existing generation capacities & by more efficient utilization of existing capacities.
• Because of severe resource constraints investment in new generation capacity is limited & again ,the additional generation capacity would be available after a long gestation period .In this context it is essential that the maximum should be achieved out of the existing  capacity & that we have to go for optimum investment.
• Energy audit & conservation of exiting energy  & its its optimum use is must in a country like India
• The paper contains CASE STUDY on Energy conservation in Indian power system by using high efficiency transformer (Amorphous core transformer). Secondly brief details of energy  audit  of an industry .
• It elaborates details on various methods for  saving energy .
• Planning for energy audit & conservation.
• Electrical energy conservation : Approach to the future
