1 QOTD How can we use energy more efficiently in our daily lives?

2 Technology and Energy Efficiency MR. DUNNUM

3 What is energy efficiency? Energy efficiency is the measure of the useful energy produced compared to the energy converted to low quality--- usually heat.

4 Technology and energy conservation Implementing new technology to do same work using less energy. Heating homes more efficiently Driving more efficient cars Lightning spaces more efficiently SAVES $$$, produces less pollution, reduces CO 2

5 Numbers Don’t Lie 84% of commercial electricity is wasted in U.S. 41% of energy is automatically wasted due to 2nd Law Of Thermodynamics 43% is wasted unnecessarily

6 Benefits

7 Real World examples Initial Cost plus the lifetime cost. Some energy efficient models may cost more up front, but save money in the long run

8 Net Energy Efficiency Measure of how much useful energy we get from energy resource after subtracting the energy wasted. How much energy you get out given ALL the wasted energy.

9 Comparing Efficiency

10 Energy Lost
