ExxonMobil and ENER-G have created a free guide to energy efficiency measures for the wind energy sector. The guide provides advice and practical recommendations on how managers can prioritise productivity while also saving energy.
It recommends adopting an integrated energy strategy, including smart metering and control strategies, energy audits, decentralised energy generation such as combined heat and power (CHP), and changing to more energy-efficient lubricants. The guide also offers best-practice tips on reducing energy demand in offices, factories and warehouses; summarises the financial help available for implementing energy efficient measures such as CHP; describes how the right lubricant selection can help companies save energy; and provides guidance on legislative and regulatory compliance. Advice shows how to reduce operating costs and energy bills by as much as 20 per cent.
