INTRODUCTION FOR ENERGY EFFICIENCY, CONSERVATION & OPTIMIZATION FOR MALAYSIAN INDUSTRIES

From the national perspective, the importance of energy conservation (EC) cannot be overemphasized. The benefits of energy conservation are significant to the nation’s economy and performance in the management of its environment. Improving energy efficiency will lead to significant cost-savings and there by improving competitiveness. Energy conservation activities will also help to conserve the usage of the nation’s limited natural resources and at the same time reduce the negative environmental impacts. The implementation of energy efficiency (EE) programs will focus on energy-saving features in the industrial and commercial sectors. In this regard, EE features in buildings and establishing comprehensive energy management systems will be encouraged. In addition, the industrial sector will be encouraged to implement EE measures including improvements in the plant, equipment, and processes.

 

COURSE OVERVIEW

This course is industry designed, to provide a broad understanding of the improvement methodology, concepts, and process. The methodology is presented with case studies and examples drawn from service, business processes, and manufacturing applications. With a heavy practice orientation, as much as a third of your time will be spent working through interactive practical exercises and assessments. This course is designed as an introduction to concepts and methodology.

 

METHODOLOGY
