ENERGY MANAGEMENT
To help you understand what we do and how can we help you manage your project efficiently and effectively, we designed a journey for you where you will learn about your project stages and what we do for you in every single stage.
1.
ENERGY BILL EVALUATION
We gather and review energy bill data, analyze, categorize, and output a full report about bills and fines with our recommendations based on the data. This step is more like a quick look and evaluation of the current situation. Later in the upcoming steps we will apply more advanced techniques to refine these data by surveying and measuring. Here are some of the common problems and how to manage to avoid and overcome them.
Common Problems
- Difficulty of evaluating energy bills (gas, electricity, etc..) as it is affected by a lot of factors.
- High energy consumption therefore expensive bills.
- Additional expenses due to fines and energy waste on unimportant tasks in business operations.
IEES Solutions
Review energy bill data, analyze and categorize the consumption based on urgency and value.
Submit a full report about the energy consumption, current average rate and fines costs.
Evaluate the current average consumption rate compared to standards.
Recommend actions or proceed to next steps to refine data and measure.
2.
FACILITY WALK THROUGH (SURVEYING)
A quick scan and survey help us offer you more specific recommendations based on equipment quantity and efficiency. Here are some of the common problems and how to manage to avoid and overcome them.
Common Problems
- Small waste of energy on some activities or equipment malfunction adds up and form a huge bill.
- Ignorant behavior of staff and visitors.
- Uncalibrated equipment.
- Wrong setup for some devices.
IEES Solutions
Report the condition of installed equipment.
Recommend quick solutions for the malfunctioned equipment.
Recommend quick free or low-cost solutions for the low energy draining activities or behaviors.
3.
ENERGY AUDITING & ANALYSIS
Advanced techniques that help you pick your system based on a detailed analysis. We measure, plan and audit then we select the proper equipment based on specs and project needs. Here are some of the common problems and how to manage to avoid and overcome them.
Common Problems
- Lack of knowledge about the project-specific details such as consumption and operation conditions, efficiency, energy losses, equipment and alternatives.
- Lack of prioritization in case of development and scaling due to shortage of enough data that could be used instead of guessing and personal diligence.
- Absence of an evaluation criteria for the discissions financially and technically.
IEES Solutions
Measure, audit, plan, and select the proper equipment based on its specs and the project needs.
Implementation of the auditing results in real world and optionally involve members of the business energy management division.
Gradually proceed with actions after each measure step to keep our fast-track process without delays.
Analyze the audit result and offer recommendations.
Attach a feasibility study for the recommendation using lifetime cost analysis offering detailed information about ROI and Payback Period.
4.
MEASURING AND VERIFICATION
And here we are to what could be considered as the last practical step of our energy management cycle. In this step we finally evaluate the solution. It is a recurring step that represents how well our strategies are going and what do we need next. Here are some of the common problems and how to manage to avoid and overcome them.
Common Problems
- lack of energy conservation projects evaluation approaches.
- No clear vision about the next steps.
- Wrong analysis could lead to a false conclusion either in case of process success or failure.
IEES Solutions
Define KPI's, Analyze on different measures and periods, and report with an up-to-date situation about the following:
Budget.
Operation.
Equipment Condition.
Maintenance team activities.
Summarize a list of needed actions in the meantime and in the future based on their priorities.
5.
ENERGY MANAGEMENT MANUAL
Imagine a system with an ability to identify its malfunctions, provide the proper way to fix it and even predict and prevent it before it happens. That is what an energy management manual can do. Here are some of the common problems and how to manage to avoid and overcome them.
Common Problems
- Unstable energy processes because of the staff changes over the time.
- Slower system development compared to the business scale rate due to lack of accurate information about its capabilities and problems.
- Lack of sustainability.
IEES Solutions
Define system standards to make it independent, self-maintained and predictive.
Define every possible procedure to keep the system under observation and control.
Providing the manual that contains all information about the system life cycle to ensure sustainability.
