ASSESSMENT OF BOILER’S OPERATING PERFORMANCE IN DIFFERENT ENERGY SECTORS IN THE PROVINCE OF VOJVODINA
ABSTRACT
Creating database enables the wide range of possibilities for implementing energy management approach and for critical evaluation of accepted practices in the field of energy efficiency. This paper contains besides the existing database also measurements in the group of randomly selected boilers. The sample formed in such a way covers approximately 25% of all boilers in the Province of Vojvodina. This provides reliability and relevance of obtained results. With reference to users, it can be the indicator of a need to undertake concrete activities for the purpose of increasing energy efficiency of plants and improving observed situation. The last section concerns relevant authorities responsible for developing and amending the energy policy.
