Title: | Market transformation of energy-efficient motor technologies in the EU | Authors: | Almeida, Aníbal T. de Fonseca, Paula Falkner, Hugh Bertoldi, Paolo |
Keywords: | Electricity end-use efficiency; Motor systems; Energy-efficient motors | Issue Date: | 2003 | Citation: | Energy Policy. 31:6 (2003) 563-575 | Abstract: | Based on a recent study carried out for the European Union (EU), this paper briefly characterizes the motor electricity end-use consumption in the industrial and in the services sectors, in the EU countries, and estimates the identified electricity savings potential with the application of energy-efficient motor technologies, namely energy-efficient motors, variable speed drives and efficient end-use devices (pumps, fans and compressors). Additionally, there is a detailed presentation of the barriers for the penetration of energy-efficient motor systems, which have been identified in the field, as well as an extensive description of the measures to overcome those barriers and promote energy-efficient motor systems. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10316/4073 | DOI: | 10.1016/S0301-4215(02)00100-3 | Rights: | openAccess |
