1. What is energy management?
To know what an energy management system is, it is first important to know what energy
management is. Energy management system is about controlling, influencing, and controlling the energy
consumption of a building or company.
Thanks to power management, power consumption can be reduced. For this purpose, energy flows
are mapped and energy-saving measures are taken.
Energy spending is a major expense for businesses. After labor and material costs, companies spend
more money on energy. With the current energy prices, this share has only increased.
2. Benefits of Energy Management.
Power management helps reduce power consumption. This has several advantages.
Energy prices had already skyrocketed, and the war in Ukraine drove them even higher. As a result,
more and more companies are struggling to remain profitable. Energy management can reduce
these enormous costs.
With Neptune India Limited’s technology, customers save an average of 12-15% on their energy bill,
but savings of 20% have also been reported. Some of our customers save more than 20% per year.
Attention
Due to the “Green Open Access Rule, 2022” announced by the Department of Energy on June 7,
2022, more and more energy consumption laws and regulations are coming into force. Consumer
standards are being tightened in the fight against climate change.
As a result, medium-sized companies are confronted with more regulations. Various laws and
regulations related to energy management are:
Audit requirement of the office for energy efficiency:
• Determine the energy consumption in the organization
• Estimate the savings margin
• Identify the most likely areas (and easier to notice)
• Identify immediate improvements/savings (especially low or no costs)
• Establish a “benchmark”
• Identify areas for more detailed investigation/measurement
• The preliminary energy audit uses existing or readily available data
• The carbon performance scale (if a company wants to be certified on it)
Therefore, energy management with an associated energy management system makes it easier for a
company to comply with regulations.
In addition, solid energy management contributes to your social responsibility as a company by
decreasing your energy utilization, you add to a better planet. Many customers today want their
business to be environmentally friendly. An EMS helps with this.
3. ISO 50001 and an energy management system.
Energy management is inextricably linked to ISO 50001. ISO 50001 is the international standard for
energy management systems. Eligible for the standard are companies that use the right energy
management systems and thus work on their energy efficiency.
In many countries, the NEN manages the ISO 50001 standard but does not issue certificates itself. If
you think your company is ISO 50001 compliant, you should hire a company that can issue the
certificates.
These companies will then visit you to see if you meet all legal requirements. For example, your EMS
should focus on continuously improving energy management. Assuming you meet the necessities,
you will get the Certification.
With Neptune Energy Management you meet one of the requirements of ISO 50001. Therefore,
implementing our EMS brings you closer to ISO 50001 certification.
4. What is an Energy Management System (EMS)?
An energy management system is the mix of equipment and programming that empowers energy
the executives. Frequently an EMS can be perused from a central point, for example, an internet based dashboard.
The hardware of an energy management system often consists of sensors and extensions. Intelligent
algorithms are the software of the system. These process the data and recommend energy-saving
measures.
5. How much does an energy management system cost?
The price of an energy management system can vary greatly depending on the size of your business.
Therefore, it is difficult to give a price for an EMS on a prelim basis.
6.Is an energy management system mandatory?
For many (medium-sized) companies, energy management is mandatory
