Energy Management, Efficiency & Sustainability
Energy Management Systems and ISO 50001
This practical training helps organizations strengthen Why energy performance is a cost, operations and sustainability issue. Participants learn to connect energy data, operational controls, cost reduction, sustainability goals, and management accountability through applied exercises and action planning.
Objectives
- Apply practical tools for energy management systems and iso 50001 in organizational settings.
- Identify data, ownership, control, cost and sustainability implications.
- Build an action plan with KPIs, responsibilities and review routines.
Target audience
- Facilities, operations, engineering, HSE, sustainability, procurement, finance, and site management teams
- Managers responsible for reducing energy cost, utility consumption, emissions, and reporting gaps
- Organizations building ISO 50001, energy efficiency, renewable energy, or sustainability capability
Program outline
A clear structure for the learning journey.
Program outline
Outline points are grouped in one designed block instead of being treated as separate module cards.
Module 1: Energy Management Systems and ISO 50001 and organizational energy performance
Business drivers for reducing consumption, cost, emissions, and operational risk
Roles of facilities, operations, HSE, procurement, finance, and leadership
Energy data sources: bills, meters, BMS, production schedules, occupancy, and maintenance records
Common failure points in ownership, baselines, and follow-up discipline
Practical activity: map energy responsibilities and decision points for a sample site
Module 2: Consumption analysis, baselines, and significant energy uses
Separating base load, peak demand, seasonality, drift, and abnormal consumption
Identifying significant energy uses across buildings, utilities, process equipment, and behavior
Building simple baselines and normalizing for production, weather, occupancy, or operating hours
Prioritizing opportunities by savings potential, risk, complexity, and payback
Practical activity: review a utility dataset and flag priority savings opportunities
Module 3: Technical improvement options and operating controls
Efficiency opportunities in HVAC, lighting, motors, compressed air, controls, and operating schedules
Maintenance and operating routines that protect energy performance after improvements
Supplier, contractor, and equipment selection considerations for energy projects
Controls for comfort, reliability, safety, and business continuity while reducing waste
Practical activity: select practical measures for a facility energy-improvement scenario
Module 4: KPIs, monitoring, reporting, and governance rhythm
Energy intensity, demand, savings, cost avoidance, emissions, and implementation KPIs
Metering plans, dashboard views, exception reports, and monthly review routines
Evidence requirements for audits, management reviews, and sustainability reporting
Escalation paths when consumption, equipment performance, or savings drift off plan
Practical activity: design a concise energy performance dashboard for managers
Module 5: Implementation roadmap and business case
Building a phased action plan from no-cost measures to capital projects
Estimating savings, risks, responsibilities, approval needs, and payback logic
Engaging site teams so changes survive shift patterns and operational pressure
Preparing a management-ready energy improvement proposal
Practical activity: prepare a 90-day energy action plan with owners and measures
Materials provided
- Participant workbook
- Practical templates and checklists
