in the Oil, Gas, Petrochemical, Chemical and Related Industries
Type: Exclusive In-House Training & Public
Trainers: Deryck Coetzer & Freek van Heerden
Duration: Part I (3 days) | Part II (3 days)
Organiser
With an increased focus on the operation of facilities at an energy efficient level, the emphasis of cost-efficient energy has become even more vital to achieving business objectives than in the past. Not only is the cost of energy important to the sustainability of the business but global warming, CO2 taxation and decarbonisation are all providing additional impetus towards improving the energy efficiency of your facilities. An optimised facility with a well understood energy baseline is essential in establishing a roadmap towards a circular economy. This course will assist participants in understanding the energy efficiency and optimisation imperative.
The Energy Efficiency course is structured in two parts. On completion of Part I of this course, delegates will have a firm understanding of Energy Management concepts as described in the ISO 50001 Energy Management Standards. Part II of the course will concentrate on energy efficiency opportunities in industry in order to create value for corporate energy savings and carbon reduction.
