Energy Conservation and Rebates in Commercial Food Enterprises
评估了州政府回扣项目对商业食品企业安装节能设备概率及节能效果的影响，发现项目收益超过成本。
Abstract State programs offer rebates to food enterprises for the installation of energy‐saving devices. This paper estimates the impact of rebates on the probability of installing a device and the resultant energy saving. Under reasonable ranges for energy costs and rates of return on devices, the benefits of a rebate program, calculated as the value of the energy savings that are attributable to the program, exceed the costs of the program and devices.
