Introduction

This one-day course is designed to give delegates an introduction to energy management principles and practical skills which can be applied in a business setting. This course also provides energy technology options which could be available for your business to implement, for example solar or heat pumps.

As the drive to reduce carbon emissions increases and with energy costs rising dramatically for businesses, ignoring energy management principles could mean spending more money on energy than your competitors and more than what is necessary to continue with your business operations. This course is designed to start your business along the path of understanding energy management principles and reducing energy usage leading to reduced costs.
