Check the unit's
energy efficiency ratio (EEF): This will give you a good idea of its annual operating cost.
Energy Efficiency Ratio of energy output of a conversion process or of a system to its energy input; also known as first - law efficiency.
(SEER stands for Seasonal
Energy Efficiency Ratio, which basically rates the efficiency of cooling systems; the higher the number, the more efficient the system.)

The twin - scroll turbocharger design has several other advantages over traditional, single - scroll turbocharging systems, including: • Improved combustion
efficiency • Low engine - speed
efficiency • Kinetic exhaust gas
energy is not wasted or trapped • Cooler cylinder temperatures • Lower exhaust temperatures • Leaner air / fuel
ratio • Better pressure distribution in the exhaust ports and more efficient delivery of exhaust gas
energy to the turbocharger's turbine Veloster's twin - scroll turbo has superior handling of exhaust gas separation at the turbine leading to improved low - end torque and faster transient torque response.
Essentially, SFI D - 4 integrates two types of fuel injection: A direct - type high - pressure fuel injection system, which provides a cooling effect in the cylinders and enables the high compression
ratio (11.8:1) employed to extract maximum
energy from the fuel; and a set of low - pressure port fuel injectors that help produce a precise burn to optimize power and
efficiency under light - and medium - load conditions.

The historical macro data show the natural tendency of economies towards decreasing
energy / GDP and
energy / population which is the result of several things notably: 1) these
ratios trend downward (unless of course economies are truly» failed»)-- meaning economies naturally move to higher value - added composition e.g., technology, retail, services,... 2) developed economies have higher supply and consumption
efficiencies simply because the technological bases are more advance and efficient be it automotive, industrial, home, personal,... etc..
While the benefit - cost
ratio «tends to increase as peak load is reduced, technical limits to the amount the peak load can be reduced with DR and
energy efficiency resources limit how much of this benefit can be realized,» the report notes.
