Energy Efficiency is key to Carbon Reduction
To maximise energy efficiency across your business, you will need
to develop a multidisciplinary team, including directors and senior managers from:
• Business Operations
• Environment
• Facilities Management
• Finance
• Human Resources
• Legal
• Procurement
• Sales and Marketing
It is important to understand how energy efficient an
organisation is as many organisations are looking at
ways to increase profitability and improve their
environmental credentials.
energyTEAM have the expertise to carry out a full
energy audit/survey of the company that typically
takes between 1 & 10 days depending on the structure
of the company and operation. Some of the following
areas will be investigated along with many others:
• Assess the overall energy demand and key areas of energy consumption,
  making use of energy analysers, data-loggers and other measuring equipment as appropriate.
• Assessment of the energy management procedures and energy efficiency measures already
  implemented.
• Analysis of the total energy usage by area and application.
Compilation and presentation of an energy management report with detailed
action plan that provides an accurate assessment of the potential energy/carbon
reductions along with details of the specific measures required for implementation
providing illustrative costs will follow on from this.

Organisations need to implement a range of CO2 reductions that will require support
from all staff and energy end users. To drive change and produce on-going improvements,
you will need to:
• Form an energy committee.
• Establish roles and responsibilities to manage continual improvement.
• Turn off equipment and building services when they are not required.
• Appoint energy champions to maintain momentum.
• Train key staff in the correct operation and maintenance of equipment.
• Control heating and cooling to optimum levels.
• Raise awareness of the need to reduce CO2 emissions throughout the organisation.
• Motivate energy end users to reduce energy consumption.

An
energyTEAM energy manager will work with your company to identify
areas where energy efficiency can be improved and work on any energy matters
as your company sees fit. The energy manager is a flexible resource that
you can draw upon as required.
An
energyTEAM energy manager would be a commendable choice for any organisation when:
• You feel your organisation would benefit from the services of an energy manager but cannot justify
   the costs of a full time employee.
• You want the flexibility to choose on a daily basis what aspects of your energy usage you want
   managed.

M & T (Monitoring and Targeting)
Monitoring and targeting techniques are about organisations saving energy and cutting costs.
By introducing M & T you can compare your energy consumption results to the weather, production
figures or other measures which ensures that you get a better understanding of how
energy is actually being used.
• Measure and record energy consumption.
• Analyse your energy consumption.
• Compare energy consumption to industry benchmarks.
• Set targets to reduce energy consumption.
• Monitor to ensure targets are realistic.
• Report the results.
• Implement energy management systems.
