6. Strategic Goals of Plant Certification
7. Benefits of Plant Certification Establishes systematic means to achieve continuous improvement
Standards for energy management and system assessments
Tools and resources to assist in implementation
Process for validation
Focus on reducing energy intensity per unit of output
Helps plants get on the path to improvement by adopting tools and resources
Promotes buy-in to energy efficiency
Applies to most companies (a wide range of industries)
Delivers value to all plants, not just those that pursue certification
Creates a transparent way to compare energy efficiency
8. Certifying Plants for Energy Efficiency
9. What Is an ANSI-Accredited Certified Plant? Complies with ANSI MSE 2000:2008 Energy Management Standard (eventually an ISO standard)
Achieves a minimum energy intensity improvement over the past two years
May apply System Assessment Standards for energy systems in plant facilities (initially pumping, compressed air, steam, process heating)
May use certified practitioners—recognized by third party—to assist in complying with standards
Uses measurement and validation experts—recognized by a third party—to verify implemented energy savings
Uses ANSI-accredited process to achieve third-party plant certification
10. Requirements for Certification For initial certification, the plant:
Complies with the energy management standard, and
Achieves validated energy intensity performance by:
Demonstrating energy intensity improvement of >5% over the previous 24 month period OR
Assessing any energy system which uses greater than 10% of total plant energy use (not including feedstocks) and demonstrating that the plant has:
Implemented >30% of total Btu energy savings opportunities that meet the company’s internal rate of return (IRR) and are identified through application of system assessment standards, OR
Met or exceeded the Energy Management Best Practice threshold* for systems for which Best Practices exist.
11. So, what does the U.S. energy management system standard look like? Here is a graphic from our latest standard revision.
MSE 2000 was designed to integrate project management and management system best practices both of which can be represented with Demings Plan-Do-Check-Act cycle for continual improvements
Right-side – energy project mgt. Projects of course are one of the primary means for making improvements. Must plan the project. Must implement or DO the project. Then, to be complete we need to measure and verify our success, what we call CHECKING. Finally, based on our checks we are able to prove our performance and look to further efforts to be improving our management system.
However, even if you do projects well, best management practices are needed. These are represented by the left text box. The standard also assists an organization to develop a framework/system to sustain their energy savings and also to continually improve the system and energy performance. Speak about why those elements are needed.

12. Lessons Learned Benefits and cost savings derived from energy management systems are easily understood by organizations
Payback is typically less than 2 years on investment in adopting MSE
Many companies recognize value of added environmental benefits
There is a lack of incentives and public policies inhibiting marketplace to adopting MSE
13. Lessons Learned Top management at corporate level must buy-in and commit resources
Immediate energy savings can derail the systems & continual improvement focus and reinforce a limited project mindset
MSE is data driven, but new programs must not be overwhelmed by too much information
Other management systems compete for resources – ISO9001, ISO14001, Six Sigma
Less energy intensive organizations may include energy within their Environmental Management System, but frequently do not
14. International Energy Management Standard
UNIDO Expert Group, Vienna, March 21-22, 2007
ANSI (U.S.) / ABNT (Brazil) leadership proposal
ISO Project Committee - PC 242 formed
First Meeting of ISO PC 242 - September 2008, Washington, DC
UNIDO / CSC Working Group Meeting
Discuss similarities and differences
Preparatory harmonization
Detailed & Summary Comparisons developed
Framework for Action How is the U.S. a player in this international effort?

15. IIndustrial systems include those systems that contribute to industrial production processes, such as: motor systems (pumping, compressed air, and fan), steam systems, and process heating systems.
16. System Assessment Standards:
Are designed to create a market threshold for industrial energy efficiency assessments from the current body of expert knowledge
Provide a standardized framework for conducting assessments of industrial systems
Establish minimum requirements and guidance for:
organizing and conducting assessments,
analyzing the data collected, and
reporting and documentation,
17. Goals
To create and test standards for conducting industrial energy system assessments
Initial portfolio of four (4) standards (pumping, compressed air, steam, and process heating) and corresponding guidance documents that become the industry standard for these system types.
Builds off previous experience through USDOE’s Save Energy Now
To define a set of skills and a qualifying process required to recognize individuals as Certified Practitioners in the application of each system standard.
To identify not-for-profit organizations to
Manage and maintain the quality of the system assessment standards and guidance and
Offer a program to qualify and maintain the professional credentials of Certified Practitioners

20. Looking Forward: Key Milestones June 2008: Texas Pilot project begins field testing ANSI energy management standard and system assessment standards
Feb. 2009: Select third-party certifying organization
May 2009: Begin field testing of measurement and verification methodology in pilot plants
