by John M. Studebaker, Ph.D., 429pp - illus - hardcover, ISBN: 0139277404

Maximize your utility cost savings using proven methods detailed in this best-selling guide - now completely updated to cover deregulation strategies . . .

Thousands of companies accomplished their goal of saving thousands of dollars in utility costs by implementing the techniques presented in the first edition of this remarkably accessible, non-technical handbook. In this completely updated new edition, Dr. Studebaker brings you up to speed on how to take advantage of even greater savings as deregulation provides new alternatives and strategic cost reduction opportunities.

You'll gain a greater understanding of usage and billing practices which influence your utility costs, as well as how the advent of retail wheeling will impact your decisions. Material on purchasing natural gas from non-utility sources has been updated to address current negotiation priorities and contractual considerations. The chapters on cogeneration have also been revised to reflect the current market, including use of shared savings as well as turnkey approaches.
