CONSIDERATION OF POSSIBLE IMPROVEMENTS IN THE CONVERSION AND USE OF ENERGY
Net usable energy needs in their various forms are defined. Wastage in energy usage is analyzed and basic possibilities of energy conservation in different end processes are discussed. The non-avoidable losses associated with the various systems of energy conversion and transportation are reviewed. In addition, the possibilities for technical improvements in these processes are assessed, together with their economic aspects and anticipated environment impacts.
