Guidelines for Energy Management

This online engineering CPD course examines the principles and practices of effective energy management.
Energy management is a structured process designed to improve energy performance by reducing energy use and demand while controlling operating costs across buildings and organizations.
Energy performance is influenced by operational practices, equipment efficiency, organizational responsibilities, and changing energy demands, requiring systematic monitoring, performance measurement, and accountability to achieve sustained improvements.
This course covers energy management frameworks, energy baselines, performance indicators, benchmarking, normalization, goal setting, action planning, energy assessments, and performance tracking. It also emphasizes staff engagement, training, accountability, capital planning, and continuous improvement strategies for sustaining long-term energy performance.
This 3 CPD online course is applicable to mechanical engineers and electrical engineers, as well as other technical professionals who are interested in learning more about energy management and continuous energy performance improvement.
This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Understanding energy management as a structured approach to improving organizational energy performance
