Instructions
Read the assigned resources pertaining to this week’s topics. Conduct a comprehensive literature search and review six additional peer-reviewed scholarly articles that provide sufficient background on the topic of energy efficiency, reduction, or utilization. Then write a thematically sorted, critical annotated bibliography of all eight works in which you address the items below (for each work).

The work’s purpose
A concise summary of its contents
Its relevance to the topic
An analysis of the contribution’s unique characteristics
Your critical analysis of the study’s strengths and weaknesses

Each annotation should consist of at least 250 words, must be formatted properly, and must have a logical flow and transition between them. The final submission must be in APA format and contain a title page, table of contents, and reference list. Ensure an intuitive correlation and reference to any works other than those directly annotated that provide additional breadth and depth to the subject matter. This annotated bibliography should provide sufficient background on the topic to provide a foundation for additional scholarly work.
Length: 9 annotations of approximately 250 words each
Your paper should demonstrate thoughtful consideration of the ideas and concepts presented in the course and provide new thoughts and insights relating directly to this topic. Your response should reflect scholarly writing and current APA standards.
