Energy management merges revenue goals with environmental goals

Analyst firm Aberdeen Group recently issued a report that outlines how organizations are using energy management to achieve their cost saving initiatives as well as to suport their corporate sustainability programs.  That's the latest from Plant Engineering.

The article goes into great detail about the Aberdeen report.  Specifically, it provides details into the processes and technology used by leading businesses to generate "quantifiable business value."  These leading businesses, identified as "Best-in-Class," had several characteristics in common:

• Best-in-Class companies are over three-times as likely as Laggards to invest in energy management solutions to gain real-time visibility into energy data

• Best-in-Class companies are over two-times as likely as Laggards to consider energy costs while scheduling production

• Best-in-Class companies are nearly four-times as likely as Laggards to consider energy efficiency while scheduling maintenance required actions
