A Guideline for the Implementation of an Energy Management System in Facility Management Organisations

Abstract:

Organisations are becoming more intensively conscious about energy related-topics. The overall societal recognition, changing legal requirements and cost reduction pressure results in increasing interests in holistic energy management activities well embedded into the overall facilities and asset management context.This paper aims to specify the information requirements for setting-up energy management system. Such a system aims to ensure that owners, tenants and operators of buildings can deliver facility and energy management services in compliance to the relevant legislative, technical and environmental standards. Initial information requirements for such a system were developed over the past nine months and are presented in this paper.
