March 14, 2005—The Canadian Industry Program for Energy Conservation (CIPEC) has released a guide that helps energy practitioners get the most out of their energy management information systems, it says.
Available free of charge, Energy Management Information Systems: Achieving Improved Energy Efficiency provides insight on how modern computing and monitoring equipment can be used to improve energy use. The 93-page, easy-to-use guide appeals to all levels of management and operational staff by clearly outlining the elements of an effective energy management information system, says CIPEC.
The guide deals with all aspects of energy management information systems—from designing an effective system to reporting, data analysis, and metering and measurement. It also includes a checklist to assess and compare your system with the structured approach presented in the handbook, says CIPEC.
It can be downloaded as a PDF file.
