Maintenance for Energy efficiency: A Review

摘要

Energy efficiency program is used to reduce energy cost that leads to a reduction in production or overhead cost. Energy saving can be obtained by application of energy-efficient technologies, operational improvement, and effective maintenance. However, maintenance and energy efficiency is usually researched separately. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the role of maintenance in energy saving and available maintenance approaches for energy consumption reduction. Various literatures and publication on the research areas were reviewed and summarized to show the importance on maintenance and approached commonly used for energy efficiency.
