Participants’ Pains

We know that…

Many participants may face challenges related to a lack of understanding of how it is possible to generate sustainable energy and reduce its consumption in manufacturing sites. Also, its impact in terms of operational processes and investments costs. It is also fundamental to understand what an energy management system and its application in a production environment is, identifying and choosing the right manufacturing devices with a higher energy efficiency.

Many participants may be confused about energy efficiency and energy savings actions at appliance level. Often at enterprise level seems to be adopted more and more in manufacturing sites and not for services’ companies. In several EU countries the rules related to the energy efficiency criterion seems different and the same happens worldwide. Without clarity on these trends, participants may have difficulty understanding their impact on the business in future.

Many participants may face challenges related to a lack of understanding of Energy Management Systems and how increase significant interest among managers, engineers involved in production processes design and other experts involved in plants’ maintenance. This lack of awareness can lead to inefficiency, resistance to new efficiency systems and missed opportunities to use them.

Participants’ Gains

So, we developed this course, in which…

Participants will gain an understanding of the impact of energy savings systems and gain the ability to effectively adopt them in a professional environment. The course will enable participants to obtain a comprehensive overview of the main aspects related to the area of acquired knowledge and how it can be focused on understanding the impact of energy management systems in workplaces.

By gaining insight into current trends in energy efficiency in business contexts, participants will have the knowledge and skills needed to capitalise on these trends, proactively manage them and adapt to the better workers adoption. To make the right decision regarding the adoption of these technologies or business processes, participants will receive the knowledge of the specific features of the working environment, the main tasks, the expected real outcomes, the conditions under which they will be used, and based on that, choose the appropriate method, devices, tools and software.

Participants will be prepared to contribute to identify and choice the better devices within the organisation. They will be able to take the right decisions regarding the adoption of these technologies on the business processes. It is fundamental to have for the participants the knowledge of the specific features of the working environment, the main tasks, the expected real outcomes, the conditions under which they will be used, and based on that, choose the appropriate method, devices, tools and software to determine the best performance of the working processes and workers conditions.
