Unit 1 Energy Scenario and Management
• Energy needs of a growing economy
• Current and long-term energy scenario - India and World
• Concept of energy conservation and energy efficiency
• Energy and environment
• Need of Renewable energy
• Principles of Energy management
• Energy policy
• Energy action planning
• Energy security and reliability
• Energy sector reforms.
,Energy
Energy is the quantitative property that is transferred to
a body or to a physical system, recognizable in the
performance of work and in the form of heat ...
Energy is the capacity of a physical system to perform work.
Energy exists in several forms such as heat, kinetic or
mechanical energy, light, potential energy, electrical or
other forms.
In mechanical engineering, energy is the ability to do work
According to the law of conservation of energy, the total
energy of a system remains constant, though energy may
transform into another form.
For example, two billiard balls colliding, may come to rest,
with the resulting energy converting to sound and perhaps a
little bit of heat, at the point of collision.
,Energy audit and management are processes that help reduce
energy consumption, lower operating costs, and reduce
environmental impact
•Energy audit
A comprehensive assessment that identifies how energy
is consumed and where there are opportunities for
improvement.
It involves collecting data, conducting on-site inspections, and
providing recommendations.
As per Indian Energy Conservation Act 2001, Energy Audit is defined as:
“the verification, monitoring and analysis of use of energy
including submission of technical report containing
recommendations for improving energy efficiency with cost
benefit analysis and an action plan to reduce energy
consumption”
, Explain the principles of
Energy management Energy Management
The process of implementing and optimizing the
recommendations from the energy audit. This includes
monitoring energy use, engaging employees, and strategic
marketing planning.
Energy Management is defined as “The strategy of adjusting
and optimizing energy, using systems and procedures so as to
reduce energy requirements per unit of output while holding
constant or reducing total costs of producing the output from
these systems”
