Energy Management Course

Energy is one of the most imperative aspects of a country’s technological progress. Efficient use of energy and its saving is essential for sustainable development. The process of energy saving is referred to as energy management. Thus, the process of planning energy-saving measures, monitoring energy utilization, and controlling and conserving energy in a building is termed energy management. 

It involves

• Measuring the current energy consumption and formulating strategies and means to save energy,
• Finding opportunities to save and analyze the amount of energy that can be saved,
• Taking action to save energy
• Gauging the effectiveness of energy management.
