Non-Parametric Energy Use Efficiency, Energy Ratio and Specific Energy for Irrigated Wheat Crop Production

In this paper, non parametric Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) was subjected to the energy data of wheat producers in Punjab state, India, and technical, pure technical and scale efficiencies were calculated for farms both category wise and zone wise. The main objective was to determine the strength of the correlation between non-parametric efficiencies and indices such as energy ratio and speci...

A Fuzzy Evaluation and AHP based Method for the Energy Efficiency Evaluation of EV Charging Station

To promote the development of electric vehicles (EVs), many charging stations have been built. The construction of charging stations costs a lot, hence it’s necessary to evaluate their energy efficiency due to their main aims of energy conservation. In this paper, a fuzzy model based on the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation (FCE) and analytic hierarchy process (AHP) is presented to evaluate the en...

Enhancers of the energy efficiency in tea processing industry

The cost reduction of green tea processing, the control of fossil fuel resources, and the curbing of corresponding greenhouse gases emission depend on the energy efficiency of tea processing units. Therefore, it is imperative to identify and analyze factors determining energy efficiency of these agro-industrial units. To this end, the present descriptive survey was carried out on 40 managers of...

Benchmarking Concept for Energy Efficiency in the Manufacturing Industry - A Holistic Energy Efficiency Model

Determination and comparison of the energy efficiency over all planning levels is one of the key challenges for small and mediums sized enterprises (SME). This is because there is a lack of transparency and information to identify the major energy consumers on plant level as well as on production and machine level. Therefore, there is a need to develop a holistic energy efficiency model which i...
