Planning and Implementation. Implementing an energy saving project could be easy. After identifying the potential energy saving, implementing it would be just like other ordinary projects. However to make a sustainable energy management process, planning plays an important role. Plan-Do-Check-Action cycle is the best approach to adopt for continuous improvement of energy management. In ensuring effective implementation, energy key performance indicator (KPI) has to be established from corporate level, department and equipment level. A systematic planning and monitoring tool has to be in placed to ensure control the status and outcome of the energy saving implementation projects.
Energy Auditing and Management System Assessment. When carrying out an assessment or auditing for energy management, we must distinguish the different between the energy management system and energy performance technical audit. Energy Performance Auditing is a tool in identifying the potential energy saving measures in your organisation or process. It requires measurement, analysis and on-site activities. Whereas energy management system assessment is an ISO type of auditing which only focuses on the documentation and compliance to the manual. In some extent it would discuss on some technical area but not as detail as technical energy auditing.
Management Review. Reviewing the result of the energy saving initiatives is crucial in the organisation to see the impact and the effectiveness of the measures. The organisation may also want to review its energy policy and objectives to ensure it is stay significant to the current energy scenario and the company business. What company always overlook are the frequency and the platform of the review that shall be carried out. Management review shall be done in a fix frequency and at a dedicated platform, chaired by the top person in the organization. This platform shall be used to exchange result of energy saving initiatives to the management and at the same time cascading the vision and energy objective to the lower management.
