Energy Management Systems
for Internal Auditor

The internal auditor will carry out monitoring and measures activities to confirm if the energy management system is operating effectively.

By the end of this training course, the participants will be able to: 

• Understand, draft, and implement the EnMS policy
• Implement the EnMS and track energy performance with confidence, and identify deficiencies and required corrective actions to confirm the system’s effectiveness
• Highlight system weaknesses before the related potential problems are reflected in the energy performance
• Develop a framework for investigating operations in a particular area in response to significant energy issues
• Demonstrate continual improvement in energy performance and identify potential opportunities

The delegates will receive theoretical training via knowledge transfer methods that considers a variety of teaching methodologies. Discussions, calculations, and practical case studies are included during this interactive training course.

Upon completion of this training course, the organisational impact would: 

• Commence with the first step towards energy performance improvement consideration, which should be addressed even before considering self-generation through renewables
• Safeguard the energy efficiency road is taken, is within a controlled environment to ensure its continued success
• Consider the interrelated or interactive elements to establish an energy policy and energy objectives
• Identify, establish, and implement processes and procedures to achieve those objectives
• Set processes and procedures in place to enforce a change in the dominant way of thinking by employees in organisations

On successful completion of this course, the delegate will be able to:

• Evaluate the current energy performance of the system, the energy performance, and Energy Performance Indicators
• Evaluate the response and investigation of significant deviations in energy performance
• Develop and evaluate performance against the set objectives and targets
• Review resourcing of action plans and methods of verification of energy performance improvement
• Effectively communicate energy performance
• Review operations and maintenance controls, design and procurement processes, and actual vs expected energy consumption

Professionals that are involved in any aspect of energy management, whether technical or non-technical. The delegates that influence the management, monitoring, or measurement of a facility or significant energy-consuming equipment as a whole.

• Energy Managers
• Operational or Facility/Building Managers
• Maintenance Managers
• Building or Process Operators
• Energy Engineering Consultants and Project Engineers
