Monitoring & Targeting Workshops
Monitoring & Targeting (M&T) is a management system that should be central to any effective programme of energy management. It will:
- Show you how, where and when energy is being used
- Alert you to unexpected excess consumption
- Enable you to target and drive down consumption
- Provide objective estimates of savings you have achieved
- Help you forecast energy demand
For more information see: Metering, Monitoring and Targeting (MMT).
Unlock the information hidden in your energy data
If you want to design, implement or improve an M&T system, or just want to be briefed on what M&T can do and how to avoid the pitfalls, we suggest that you attend one of our workshops.
They are suitable for:
- facilities managers
- plant engineers
- works managers
- engineers
- energy managers
- consultants
Each workshop is limited to 12 delegates and is informal, interactive, with questions and discussion encouraged. Examples and exercises are used to illustrate and clarify the material.
You will learn how to:
- Detect exceptions with a remarkably simple routine report
- Instantly prioritise them by excess cost
- Account properly for the weather, production activity levels, and other quantifiable influences
- Reveal inefficiency and waste through analysis of past behaviour
- Focus energy surveys where there will be most benefit
- Verify and quantify the benefit of energy-saving initiatives and projects
- Forecast and track energy budgets accurately
- Benefit from enhanced benchmarking opportunities
- Use degree-days and CUSUM analysis
Yours to keep:
- Handbook on the analysis and reporting of energy data
- Excel 2003 workbook containing samples of analysis and data-presentation tricks
