An energy audit is a survey in which the study of energy flows for the purpose of conservation is examined at an Organization. It refers to a system analysis that seeks to reduce the amount of energy used in an Organization without impacting the output. The audit includes suggestions of alternative means and remedial methods for achieving energy savings to a greater extent. Conventionally, electrical energy is generated by means of fossil fuels, hydraulic and wind. Exploitation of fossil fuels and their depletion rate, insist the need for alternate energy source and conservation of electric energy. Primary objective of an energy auditing and management of energy consumption is to offer goods or services at the lowest possible cost and with the least amount of environmental impact. The need for an energy audit is to identify the savings potential and cost reducing methods, understand the ways in which fuel is used, where, the waste occurs and find the scope for improvement.Preparation and completion of a questionnaire, physical examination of the campus, observation and examination of documentation, key person interviews, data analysis, measurements and suggestions are all part of the audit processes.In general, energy audit is the translation of conservation ideas into realities, by lending technically feasible solutions with economic and other organizational considerations within a specified time frame.
This paper presents a new ideology called as boost inverter which converts input DC supply into AC directly without using any filter circuit. The main part of today’s research work is to use solar energy efficiently. While using for AC autonomous loads, the output from the solar panel should not suffer any losses during the various power conversion stages. The conventional voltage source inverter, which is currently in usage, produces an AC output voltage lower than the DC input supply and thus it requires another power conversion stage. It can be used to drive the loads only after removing the ripples using a filter. The main objective of the project is to produce an AC output voltage higher than the DC input voltage in a single stage. Thus the number of power conversion stages is reduced by using boost inverter circuit. Since Pulse Width Modulation technique is used to drive the circuit, the requirement of a filter at the output is not needed
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
