A review on electrical motors energy use and energy savings
TL;DR: A comprehensive literature review about electric motor energy analysis is presented in this article, where different types of losses that occur in a motor have been identified and ways to overcome these losses explained and an energy audit that helps to identify motor energy wastages have been discussed extensively.
Journal ArticleDOI
A review on compressed-air energy use and energy savings
TL;DR: In this article, a comprehensive literature review about compressed air energy use, savings, and payback period of energy efficient strategies is presented, where various energy-saving measures, such as use of highly efficient motors, VSD, leak prevention, use of outside intake air, reducing pressure drop, recovering waste heat, and use of variable displacement compressor to save compressed-air energy have been reviewed.

Energy consumption, energy savings, and emission analysis in Malaysian office buildings
TL;DR: In this article, the estimation of energy use in office buildings in Malaysia and with the energy use of major equipment is concerned with estimating the energy intensity (EI) of office buildings, and it is estimated that 77,569 MWh can be saved and a huge reduction of emissions achieved through the application of advance glazing, compact fluorescent lamps (CFL), insulation, housekeeping, and by raising thermostat set point temperature of air conditioners, and reducing EI.
