Air Force Energy Conservation Handbook. Volume I. Management Guidelines and Brochure-Home Energy Savings-Tips from Your Base Engineer

摘要

As the national energy shortage becomes more critical, the Air Force must make increasingly substantive and conspicuous efforts to conserve energy in every functional area. In response to spiraling energy costs, the Air Force in cooperation with the National Bureau of Standards (presently National Institute of Standards and Technology) is publishing in two volumes a Handbook on Energy Conservation in existing buildings. This Handbook provides technical and management guidelines for use by management and technical personnel at the Base level. The purpose of Volume I of the Handbook is to assist Base Civil Engineering and Service Personnel in dealing with the management aspects of energy conservation. These include: establishing a management structure to implement the program, analyzing options for energy conservation in various facilities, establishing both short-and long-range plans for energy management, gaining the support of all Base and tenant personnel, monitoring program progress, and related activities.
