The American Gas Association represents local energy companies that deliver natural gas throughout the United States.
In DSM, an estimate of energy savings based on the assumption that all energy-efficient options will be adopted to the extent that they are cost-effective and possible through utility DSM programs. Compare ECONOMIC POTENTIAL, MARKET POTENTIAL and TECHNICAL POTENTIAL.
Industry:Energy
Searching and mapping of the subsurface structure of the earth's crust by use of geophysical methods, to locate probable reservoir structures capable of containing gas or oil.
Industry:Energy
Steel pipe inserted (and sometimes cemented) into a gas or oil well, intermittently as the well is drilled, to line the well as is found necessary to eliminate ground caving and water infiltration, and to prevent gas and/ or oil from escaping or leaking from the native reservoir into other formations.
Industry:Energy
The income account used by those companies which do not apply the entire benefit of the investment tax credit to income in the year in which such credit is realized. This account is used to record the charges for the current year's investment tax credit less the current year's amortization of the accumulated investment tax credits under a plan which spreads over the useful life of the qualified property additions or some shorter period the investment tax credit benefits applicable to that property.
Industry:Energy
The temperature at which a specimen will deflect a given distance at a given load under prescribed conditions of test. See ASTM D 648. Formerly called heat distortion.
Industry:Energy
A device designed to shut off gas flow upon flame failure, pilot outage, control impulse, overpressure, or underpressure without manual attention.
Industry:Energy
A method of computing depreciation under which equal annual amounts are set aside for the ultimate retirement of the property at the end of its service life. For a property with an assumed 25-year life, the annual charge would be 4% per year, usually applied to the cost of the property less estimated net salvage.
Industry:Energy
A system to convert coal to clean combustible gas which fuels a combustible turbine generator.
Industry:Energy
Any of the foregoing types of rates may be modified by the addition of a customer charge. When such a charge is introduced in the hopkinson demand rate, it becomes a "three part rate" or "three charge rate" which consists of a charge per customer or per meter plus demand and commodity charges.
Industry:Energy
In DSM, an estimate of energy savings based on the assumption that all existing equipment or measures will be replaced with the most efficient equipment or measure that is technically feasible, without regard to cost or market acceptance. Compare ACHIEVABLE POTENTIAL, MARKET POTENTIAL and ECONOMIC POTENTIAL.
