Abstract
Corporate energy conservation programs
have made substantial gains in reducing
energy consumption during the last decade.
The responses to survive the mid-1970's
global energy uncertainties were made in a
crisis environment.
Now, there is a transition from energy
conservation to energy strategic planning.
Energy engineers and managers need to improve
their managerial skills for unleashing
opportunities and implementing
projects to increase energy efficiencies.
To achieve these results requires a total
energy management program. Successful
energy management programs are an integral
part of the day-to-day business management
and long-range strategic planning.
This paper discusses some of the steps to
chart a course for successfully implementing
energy strategic planning. There
are a few critical success factors that
are essential to managing a successful
energy management program. The what, why,
and how for each critical success factor
is discussed.
