Continual Increase in Energy Efficiency

As operational energy managers, the engineers at Kofler Energies guarantee efficient and economical systems operation and continue to further develop the energy management system during running operations.

Statutory regulations require many companies to name an operations energy manager. This responsibility requires specific qualifications and continued education and training regarding regulatory changes. For every management system in the areas of energy, environment, job safety, and quality, a manager who continually adapts and develops the concept further must be assigned.

For most companies, this pays off: according to calculations by the auditing firm PricewaterhouseCoopers, companies that have implemented such a “living” system in accordance with ISO 50001 evidence an approx. 19% higher energy efficiency, on average, and lower their energy costs by approx. 25%.

However, the qualification and continued education and training of the energy manager incur costs. Furthermore, internal capacities are committed. Here, awarding the position externally to Kofler Energies can be worthwhile. Upon request, we assume the implementation of the management system and ensure that it is understood and observed at all levels of the organization. Additionally, we fulfill the following responsibilities:

• Maintenance of the management system
• Compliance with requirements according to DIN EN ISO, DIN, EN, and VdS
• Education and training
• Improvement of methods and processes
• Administration of management documentation
• Review of management systems
• Professional representation regarding energy, environmental, and quality concerns
