Abstract
services with the least cost and least environmental effect. The purpose of energy
management is to minimize energy and water consumption and costs, while meeting
all operational mission requirements and providing quality working and living
conditions for personnel and family housing occupants. Energy management requires
a careful balancing between efforts to use energy efficiently and meet the quality of
life requirements, while insuring that primary mission requirements are met. Effective
energy management strives to avoid conflicts between the two, while achieving
program, the energy manager must have a good understanding of both the technical
and managerial aspects of energy management. This report covers the basics of
area of energy management. It attempts to balance the total energy inputs with its use,
and serves to identify all the energy streams in a facility. It quantifies energy usage
i according to its discrete functions. Industrial energy audit is an effective tool in
within a specified time frame. The primary objective of Energy Audit is to determine
ways to reduce energy consumption per unit of product output or to lower operating
costs. Energy Audit provides a " bench-mark" (Reference point) for managing energy
in the organization and also provides the basis for planning a more effective use of
production are avoided. Frequently entities must choose between investing in energy
efficiency or energy supply. There are numerous issues surrounding these decisions.
realizing its full value and setting resource savings and funding targets accordingly.
Many utilities, states, and regions are estimated and verifying the wide range of
benefits of energy efficiency and are successfully integrating energy efficiency into
the resource planning process. The primary purpose of energy and economic analysis
will determine the appropriate type of analysis and the decision statistics to be used.
Except for special situations where a measure is obviously cost-effective or not cost-
effective or where the cost of the analysis would not be justified, LCC techniques
should be used to make decisions about energy projects. Energy managers must make

This type of decision may be required for situations where multiple systems are being
considered doing the same job, when deciding how far to go in conserving energy (for

funds when presented with a long list of projects that are all cost-effective.
