Revue de presse :

The author is clear that the primary aim is about reduction in unit consumption, but we all know the end game is about reduced energy bills and green-house gas emissions. It does stress that the key to success lies with an informed and motivated workforce. With that in mind, this guide helps by providing down-to-earth, practical approaches around everything from policy to equipment calculations and conducting surveys. I was pleasantly surprised to be able to add a few new tools to the arsenal that I've integrated into my organisation's energy management system. If you apply even one or two of [the book's] principles, its price tag will be eclipsed multiple times over. --Joseph Fay, MCQI CQP, European supply chain manager, General Electric, Power and Water.
