While West African region has one of the lowest per capita consumptions as far as energy is concerned. On the other hand, the energy-GDP ratio of most of the countries in the region is higher than those of developed nations. This book examined various patterns of energy consumption, identified the sources of energy wastage, and assessed the effectiveness of the strategies that were employed to reduce or eliminate energy waste in food and beverage companies in Nigeria. This was with a view to recommending policy measures that would enhance the effective electrical energy savings in food companies of third world economies. This work is useful for food industry (production and processing departments) especially those in developing countries to review their equipments, conduct energy audit, ensure energy use efficiency and reduce cost spent on energy. Also the work will aid in further research efforts.
