    Energy Manager

    plans, regulates and monitors energy use in an organization or


    facility

    Aim to improve energy efficiency by evaluating energy use


    and implementing new policies and changes where necessary

    Does not wait for action to happen and searches for all possible
    opportunities

    Keep educating himself about the ways and methods to reduce


    the energy
    Energy Audit“
    Energy audit is a systematic study or survey to identify how
    energy is being used in a building or plant, and identifies energy
    savings opportunities

    .”Definition : “The verification, monitoring and analysis of use of


    energy including submission of technical report containing
    recommendations for improving energy efficiency with cost
    benefit analysis and an action plan to reduce energy
    consumption”.
    Energy Auditor Has to be very sound both technically and
    commercially

    Should be having rich experience in working of the plants and


    equipment

    His observations has to be comprehensive and not just limited to


    Management

    Have to take a call over which procedure or action plan has to be


    implemented

    Although Energy Auditor is expected to weigh pros and cons about


    any proposed measure suggested for implementation but role of
    management in ensuring that proper budgetary support and
    framework is provided, is of paramount importance.
    Good maintenance practices and good energy management go
    hand in hand
    Good maintenance practices and good energy management go
    hand in hand.
    Some of the highest rates of return on energy conservation are
    generated simply by performing maintenance.
    Preventive maintenance is still critical, and reactive maintenance
    (waiting for a crisis to occur) is still foolish, despite funding
    limitations.
    It is easy to ignore preventive maintenance when systems are new,
    calibrations are precise, seals are tight, and heat-exchanger
    surfaces are clean.
    As systems age, these and other items need care.
    Maintenance Vs. Energy Management

    Serve different purposes

    One cannot be substituted for the other

    For example, cleaning light-fixture lenses and re lamping


    them is good maintenance; installing more efficient lamps
    and ballasts is good energy management.

    These distinctions must be remembered when budgets are


    being prepared.
    Importance of Energy Management

    The primary objective of energy management is to achieve and


    maintain optimum energy procurement and utilization throughout
    the organization which may help in minimizing energy costs and
    justifying environmental effects

    In fact, energy management is widely acknowledged as the best


    solution for direct and immediate reduction of energy consumption
    Managing and reducing energy consumption not
    only saves money but also helps in mitigating
    climate change and enhancing corporate reputation

    Energy should be regarded as a business cost, like


    raw material or labor

    Substantial reduction in energy bills


    Why reduction and control of energy usage is
    vital for an organization??

    1. Reduces costs:The most convincing reason for


    saving energySave up to 20% on fuel cost by
    managing energy use

    2. Reduce risk:Helps to reduce risk of energy price


    fluctuations and supply shortages
    3. Reduces undesirable environmental effects :
    Reduces carbon emissions and undesirable
    environmental effects

    Carbon emissions from energy use dominate the total


    greenhouse gas emissions of most organizations

    Reducing carbon footprint helps build a ‘green’


    image thereby generating good business opportunities

    Sound energy management - integral part of carbon


    management, helps organizations in effective overall
    environmental management
    Some important roles and responsibilities of Energy
    Management Cell.

    Prepare an annual activity plan and present to


    management concerning financially attractive investments
    to reduce energy costs

    Establish an energy conservation cell within the firm with


    management's consent about the mandate and task of the
    cellInitiate activities to improve monitoring and process
    control to reduce energy costs
    Responsibilities of Energy Managers
    1.Prepare an annual activity plan and present to management concerning financially attractive investments to reduce
    energy costs.
    2.Establish an energy conservation cell within the firm with management’s consent about the mandate and task of
    the cell.
    3.Initiate activities to improve monitoring and process control to reduce energy costs.
    4.Analyze equipment performance with respect to energy efficiency.
    5.Ensure proper functioning and calibration of instrumentation required to assess level of energconsumption directly
    or indirectly.
    6.Prepare information material and conduct internal workshops about the topic for other staff.
    7.Improve disaggregating of energy consumption data down to shop level or profit center of a firm.
    8.Establish a methodology how to accurately calculate the specific energy consumption of various products/services
    or activity of the firm.
    9.Develop and manage training programme for energy efficiency at operating levels.
    10.Co-ordinate nomination of management personnel to external programs.
    11.Create knowledge bank on sectoral, national and international development on energy efficiency technology
    and management system and information denomination.
    12.Develop integrated system of energy efficiency and environmental upgradation, Wide internal & external
    networking.
    13.Co-ordinate implementation of energy audit/efficiency improvement projects through external agencies.
    14.Establish and/or participate in information exchange with other energy managers of the same sector through
