INDUSTRIAL ENERGY MANAGEMENT APPROACH and BUSINESS CASE Robert Hitch, P.E. Georgia Institute of Technology Sponsored by Oak Ridge National Laboratory
Energy Use Must Be Managed • User lack of control of prices, politics, or the global economy. • A management process is needed to meet business goals and objectives. • ISO 50001 standard offers a mechanism to manage energy. • Plan-Do-Check-Act framework. • Spans most sectors of the economy
Primary Energy Use by Industry Energy Consumption for Kazakhstan Industrial Sector – 666TBtu (24MTCE) • ISO 50001 targets energy management in: • industry • commercial buildings and • the government • The impacts could be substantial. Kazakhstan 2007, data source International Energy Agency online, August 2010
Why an Energy Management System? • An energy management system solution. • The most common way to achieve energy efficiency • The Plan-Do-Check-Act model of management systems has been proven. • It integrates energy issues into existing management systems for continual improvement. • Applies to industrial, commercial, institutional, and transportation sectors • Helps meet resource use efficiency targets • Benefits of an ISO Standard: • Compatible with other ISO management system standards. • Multi-national companies may use one system in all of their facilities.
Supportive Policies for National Energy Management Standards • In countries with existing standards: • Voluntary energy management standards • Target large industrial plants • Technical assistance is offered • Case studies publicize benefits • Recognition for outstanding performers • In addition, most countries: • Offer financial incentives for compliance • Provide training • Provide networking • Several countries offer system optimization training Kazakhstan is a member of TC242 and 70 other ISO standards Committee for Technical Regulation and Metrology email: dyussikeyeva_l@memst.kzWeb: www.memst.kz
Increased International Focus on Energy Efficiency • China plans to reduce energy use by 20% per unit of GDP below 2005 levels by 2010 • G-8 meetings now include energy efficiency as a major topic. • The International Energy Agency recognizes energy efficiency as a primary source of short-term GHG emission reductions. • The U.N. Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) is promoting systems energy efficiency and energy management standards for both developed and developing nations. • Through Partnerships, the U.S., and several other countries arepromoting greater industrial energy efficiency.
So ISO Gets Involved International Organization for Standardization (ISO) is initiating a broad portfolio of initiatives to promote energy efficiency, • ISO 50001, • ISO CSC /Strategic Task Force on Energy Efficiency & Renewable Energy Sources
History of ISO 50001 • In March 2007, UNIDO hosted the first meeting proposing an energy management standard. The ISO Secretariat accepted the UNIDO request. • UNIDO initiated a program to foster coordination among various nations to develop an international standard. The preparatory meeting was in Beijing in April 2008. • PC 242 was created to guide the development of ISO 50001. • 53 participating nations worldwide [includes KAZMEMST] • Four-nation leadership: U.S., China, Brazil, U.K. UNIDO has liaison status. http://www.iso.org/iso/iso_technical_committee?commid=558632
ISO Energy Management Standard ISO 50001 will establish a framework for industrial plants, commercial facilities, and organizations to manage energy. • Potential impacts: • Managing energy more effectively (10 to 30%, and greater). • May influence up to 60% of the world’s energy use. • Adoption of ISO 50001 will: • Reduce energy costs • Make manufacturing more sustainable • Create demand along the manufacturing supply chain • Drive National carbon reduction programs • Improve International climate agreements • Status of ISO 50001: • Under development by ISO Project Committee 242; 52 countries participating • Draft International Standard released April 2010 • Ready for publication by mid-2011. Applies to industry, commercial buildings, and transportation fleets
Scope of ISO 50001 This International Standard requires an organization to: • Establish, implement, maintain and improve an energy management system, • Take a systematic approach • Achieve continual improvement of energy performance, energy efficiency and energy conservation. This International Standard specifies requirements for: • energy supply, uses and consumption • measurement, documentation and reporting, • design and procurement practices for energy using equipment, systems, processes, and personnel. • applies to all factors affecting energy use, which can be monitored and influenced by the organization. • does not prescribe specific performance criteria with respect to energy • designed to be used independently, but it can be aligned or integrated with other management systems. It is applicable to all organizations.
Scope of ISO 50001 • Enables a systematicachievement of continualimprovement in energy performance, energy efficiency, and energy conservation. • Imposes requirements on energy supply and consumption: • Measurement • Documentation and reporting • Design and procurement practices for energy-using equipment and systems • Processes and personnel • Applies to those factors that can be monitored and influenced by the organization • Does not prescribe specific performance criteria with respect to energy. • Designed to be used independently, yet can be aligned or integrated with other management systems (e.g., ISO 9001 and 14001). Applicable to all organizations.
ISO 50001: Moving Forward • Foster wider use of organizational policies; specify energy efficiency in the supply chain • A tool to move the market toward greater energy efficiency • Use ISO 50001 in a greater variety of organizations and businesses: industrial, commercial, public, transportation, etc.
Challenges Ahead • It is hard to start something new • Management support is critical • A baseline needs to be established for benchmarking • This is a new way of managing and evaluating their business • Infrastructure may not be available yet
Business Benefits of Implementing an Energy Management System • An energy management system can achieve the following: • Establish a baseline of energy use and better energy data • Active management • Reduce environmental impact • Continual improvement in energy intensity • Document savings for internal and potentially external use (e.g., emissions credits)
