EnMS implementation process EnPI migrated from SEC to more advanced model based on multivariable regression analysis Every new investment decision consider energy efficiency and life cycle cost of new equipment We find area of Critical Operation Parameters as key point for achieving low and no cost savings training and knowledge transfer have become part of our business culture
Barriers and Learned Lessons Employees are not aware about importance of managing energy Awareness can be build trough awareness campaigns and proper communication of successes Lack of competence for fulfilling new roles We use opportunity to raise competence by sending our employees to UNIDO EnMS and UNIDO CASO expert trainings We also organize in house trainings to transfer knowledge from one employee to others Limited budget for energy efficiency investments We achieve 5,5% reduction in light fuel oil consumption with completelly no cost measures
