Abstract
With increasing federal emphasis on energy and its conservation, programs to conserve energy are being proposed at all levels of industry, commerce, and government. Many of these programs promise results that can never be realized. This paper describes an operational methodology for estimating and measuring energy savings for these energy conservation programs. The assumptions and qualifications which form the basis of the methodology are discussed, and some techniques for interfacing the methodology with a company's energy conservation program are presented.
