Setting up an energy metering plan for an industrial company

You run an industrial business. Energy consumption is a major item on your balance sheet. Rising energy costs make an analysis of energy consumption essential. Is the company's energy consumption justified? Is it being used wisely?

The metering plan is part of the energy management process defined by ISO 50001 in the "monitoring and measurement" phase of the continuous improvement process of the energy management system.

This practical guide will help you :

• draw up an energy and metrological inventory of an industrial site;

• identify influencing factors and site energy performance indices (EPIs);

• implement best practices when executing the metering plan ;

• identify measurement points and instrumentation, and use measurements and data;

• monitor EPCs to help identify and sustain sources of energy savings.
