Overview

Energy Management & Efficiency gauges how a company systematically measures, monitors and reduces the amount of energy required to operate its facilities, equipment and value-chain processes. It addresses:

  • adoption of formal energy-management systems (e.g., ISO 50001) with clear governance, objectives and continuous-improvement cycles;
  • identification and implementation of efficiency measures across operations - process optimisation, heat recovery, high-efficiency motors, building automation, LED lighting, smart controls;
  • data capture and metering of Scope 1 and Scope 2 energy use (and material Scope 3 where relevant), plus real-time analytics to prioritise savings;
  • integration of energy-efficient design principles in new capital projects and retrofits, including life-cycle cost analysis and internal carbon/energy pricing;
  • tracking and disclosure of energy-intensity KPIs (e.g., MWh per tonne, per m², per unit revenue) and absolute consumption reductions, aligned with frameworks such as GRI 302, ISSB/TCFD, EU ESRS E1 and SDG 7.
