Opening Remarks 1: Mr. Lu Xinming, Director, Division of Energy Conservation, Department of Resources Conservation & Environment Protection, National Development and Reform Committee (China) · Noted that it was very important to promote energy efficiency globally · Identified that EMAK had established a platform for policy makers to discuss these issues · Noted that China – which has already done a lot on energy efficiency targets - is open and active to participate in best practices and is willing to share achievements · And closed with the remark that Guilin in November is particularly beautiful! Opening Remarks 2: Hiroshi Asahi, Director-General for Energy and Environmental Policy, Ministry of Economy, Trade, and Industry (METI), (Japan) · Thanked participants for attending and the Chinese government for hosting the event · Noted that energy management is critical to promote energy efficiency in industry · Stated that the key concepts of sharing information, building networks and supporting implementation were designed into EMAK · And closed with the notion that listening to each other is very important Moderator: Ms. Louise Vickery, General Manager of DRET, Australia · Noted that energy use and intensity is critical to Australia’s future because of their reliance on mining · Introduced the speakers and noted that this session will focus on heavy energy users and the opportunities that exist within those industries · Explained that Australia’s Energy Efficiency Opportunities program requires not just an audit but a full report to the Board that is made public
Speaker 1 (13:20- 13:45) : Ms. Abha Shukla, Secretary, Bureau of Energy Efficiency, Government of India, Ministry of Power (India) Theme：Perform, Achieve & Trade (PAT)(National Mission for Enhanced Energy Efficiency) · India still has energy shortages even with the recent and planned significant increases in supply and capacity · Therefore, energy efficiency is an important strategy for their country · Identified large potential savings indifferent sectors such as agriculture, industry, transport and so on · Individual energy policies are being developed for each of these sectors · As well, India has developed appliance schemes and focused on building efficiencies
Speaker 2 ( 13:45-14:15) : Mr. Carl Barrett, Group risk and sustainability Manager, BGC (Australia) With a short presentation about Australia's Energy Efficiency Opportunities Program by the Department of Resources, Energy and Tourism, Australia. · BGC is Australia’s largest builder for the last 7 years · Their changes have occurred because the Australian government has required change, but also because they have identified real commercial interest in energy efficiency · Noted that some core components for BGC: leadership, co-ordinating people, providing case studies, identifying opportunities, and formalizing decision-making proposals · Finally, suggested that EMAK could provide a strong communication focus for disparate energy efficiency advocates globally
Theme：Energy Management Practices In Australian Industry Speaker 3 (14:15-14:40) : Mr. Sung Hee Won, senior manager, LG Chem (Korea) Theme：Energy Management Practices of LG Chem · Built on the approach of the Korean government with their EMS by building corporate wide system · This system was integrated, aligned to the broader national government approach and already delivering significant results · Suggested that EMAK could focus on the role of the CEO and get them interested in energy management and energy efficiency · In reply to a question, noted that ISO50001 will not be mandatory in Korea
Speaker 4 (14:40-15:05) : Mr. He Jun, Vice Director, China Building Materials Federation (China) Theme: China Cement Industry in Energy Saving and Emission Reduction · Chinese government required mandatory reductions for each unit of cement plant · China is creating its own national standards based on benchmarking but is happy to adopt standards and approaches from other countries · Because of the significant diversity of cement manufacturers, energy targets are difficult – China is concentrating on bringing up the bottom group to a better average
Moderator : Mr. Kazuhiko Yoshida, General Manager, Cooperation Planning and Management Department, International Cooperation Division, The Energy Conservation Center, Japan (ECCJ) · Noted that this session focused on energy management practices by small and medium sized enterprises such as Energy Service Companies and other useful practices
Speaker 1(16:00-16:25) : Dr. Bhaskaran Gopalakrishnan, Professor and Director of the Industrial Assessment Center, West Virginia University (USA) Theme：Energy Management Practices by SME · Has a training focus that tries to get energy management skills into the small and medium enterprise workplace · Noted that unbiased advice is useful, as they are funded by government but not “selling” consultancy products · Insisted that verifying the savings made from energy efficiency is a critical step and needs to be focused on more urgently · Has seen a change over the years – at the start, they struggled to get SME workplaces for assessments, and now they have a large waiting list
Speaker 2 (16:25-16:50) : Mr. Takashi Sato, Technical Expert, Technical Cooperation Department, International Cooperation Division, The Energy Conservation Center, Japan (ECCJ ) Theme：Energy Management and Practices in Small and Medium Sized Enterprises in Japan · Discussed the energy management system in Japan and the current energy situation · (Yukari noted that regulation, leadership by top management and crisis got Japan going on the road to energy efficiency – what happens if you do not have a crisis?) · Outlined two case studies – one based on a single company and the other based on a sectoral approach
Closing Remarks : Mr. Robert Tromop, Head of EEU, IEA
1. The Drivers for EM • “the government made us change” • Good business sense – growth, profit • EE the next largest resource • Focus on largest users or costs • Utility, network pricing / incentives • Global and local environmental challenges • Business processes; ISO9000, 14000, 51000 • Product development • Process technology developments; dry clinker, • Crisis, recession, trade issues… many drivers, not just MJs
2. FOCUS. Substantive change from: • Much of the potential lies in a few growing energy intensive industries: mining, metals, cement, timber & paper, chemicals… • Process EE is often limited by chemical thermodynamics, but process scale, complexity and human factors offers large EM potential • Developing country productive sectors; >50% of TCE • EM techniques also work for commercial transport, generation, • Broad view of drivers; productivity not just GHG • SME; IAC, ‘supportive measure’ how to ‘hold their hands’ cost effectively
3. EM policy options • (Mandatory) energy saving targets • ESCo – capacity and capability, finance • Fiscal instruments & ES certs • Norms, targets and benchmarks • Audits, surveys, data analysis • MV&E, assessments, reporting, compliance • Energy – mass thermodynamics analysis
4. EM strategies in industry • commitment • plans, • leadership, people, organisation… • data, evaluation, • decision making, • implementation, monitoring, • communication, • These strategies are getting more sophisticated
5. EMAK must do….
