SCEM Professional Level: WSQ Energy Management and Economics (Classroom and Asynchronous)
About This Course
Developing a demand management plan and knowing about the energy management system are important for energy efficiency investments. As energy managers, learners need to know the methodology, benchmarks, and audit procedures needed to set up an efficient energy management system. In this way, they will know what can or cannot be done as they perform their analysis and calculations for energy efficiency investment.
Learners will then be able to develop demand management plans by conducting pre-audits checks on-site and developing demand management or integrated energy solution proposals for their organisation or clients of their organisation.
In this course, learners will learn how they can
- Develop an energy management system
- Conduct economic analysis and calculate potential savings based on prevailing market prices and usage
- Design demand management plans based on energy demand and market prices
