Today’s overall energy
costs and dramatic price fluctuations continue to wreak havoc on
the operating expenses and profitability of organizations. This
instability, coupled with the lack of sustainable energy
efficiency programs results in these organizations being at a
competitive disadvantage in the ever expanding world economy.
This
course provides the knowledge, techniques and skill sets needed
to implement sustainable energy efficiency programs which will
in turn reduce energy costs for manufacturing operations,
commercial facilities and government institutions.
