Plant personnel motivated towards energy saving are best suited to pursue and implement the energy conservation process in the industry. They can do so by not only implementing energy efficiency in their operations but also by increasing awareness among all users, following energy discipline and encouraging use of energy efficient processes.
    Many of the plant personnel are able to identify various projects for energy saving. However, the common roadblock faced by the plant personnel is inability to thoroughly evaluate the energy conservation projects with technical and financial back-up.
    The course is designed to bridge this knowledge gap so as to understand the basics required and parameters for energy efficiency projects. With adequate knowledge of energy systems, plant personnel will be able to identify and properly evaluate energy saving proposals. They will also be able to judge proposals made by their peers / subordinates. They will be able to quantify the savings achievable and carry out a basic cost benefit analysis of the energy efficiency projects.
    Also during purchase / installation of new equipment, plant personnel will be able to suitably size their equipment, set suitable working parameters and ensure suitable installation which will be beneficial in the long term energy efficiency. In the long term, plant personnel can use this knowledge for establishing of energy management systems and help the company objectives of increased productivity and reduced cost through energy efficiency.
