The purpose of this report is to show that computer and allied technologies can be used to increase energy efficiency. The report is divided into transport, industrial, commercial and domestic sections, which correspond to the major energy consuming sectors of the economy. Each section considers the various ways in which energy can be saved by the use of the computer. The report concludes that it is economic to incorporate computer based energy management systems in a wide variety of applications and that it is important that this capability is realised on a large scale. A comprehensive reference list and a bibliography are included.
