What is the MEGE Program? It is a robust Monitoring and Energy Management system. The MEGE provides an agile model that will allow all members of the organization to get involved in the objective of overcoming the energy challenge.
How does it work? The program is based on the ISO 50001 standard. Plan-Do-Check- Act for the continuous improvement of energy efficiency.
► Plan: Perform the energy review and establish the baseline, energy performance indicators (EnPIs), objectives and action plans necessary to obtain results in accordance with opportunities to improve energy efficiency and energy policy of the organization.
►Do: Implement action plan for Energy Management.
►Check: Monitor and measure the processes and key characteristics of the operations that determine energy performance, in relation to energy policy and objectives and report the results.
►Act: Take actions to continually improve energy efficiency and EMS (Energy Management System)
What is included?
We will develop a policy for a more efficient energy use. Set goals and objectives to comply with the policy. Use data to better understand and make appropriate decisions about energy use and measure results.
