Σύνοψη

The need to conserve our declining fuel resources,
especially of oil and natural gas is now widely accepted.
By moderating our demand for energy we can usefully extend
the period of time available for 'the safe and proper
development of alternative sources. As it is already known
energy is linked to food production industrial output,
wealth health and lifestyle. Over half of the energy used
by man is wasted and the more drastic energy-saving
measures might require unacceptable changes to our present
life.
There is a real need to conserve conventional forms of
energy especiallY in industry and commerce. Industry and
commerce should require little convincing of the need to
conserve in order to cut their costs and to remain
competitive.
since an increasing portion of energy requirements is met
in the form of electricity the efficient use of electricity
has become an urgent international goal.
At a time when fuel shortages are occurring, prices are
escalating and environmental constraints on energy
conversion are increasing improved efficiency of
utilisation is the best short term alternative for insuring
that adequate supplies of electric energy remain available.
Electricity in Cyprus is almost the unique form of energy
for commercial and industrial users, as well as for the
domestic sector the cost of electricity often has
significant impact on their present activities and their
present activities and their future plans.
;
Proper energy management leads to an important control of
the energy cost but at the same time provision of future
energy requires substantial capital investment on the
supply side. Expenditure on energy conservation reduces
this requirement and provides recurring savings for endusers
usually at a far better rate of return.
In this project information relating to the end-uses of
electricity in "Europa Hotel" in Nicosia are collected and
analysed. Suggestions are made on measures of electricity
savings given in addition a view of the financial benefit
resulting from the application of such measures.
