Create a Facility Energy Management Plan
想要降低设施中能源消耗的工厂经理可以创建一个解决所有能耗领域的计划。全国仪器公司（NI），德克萨斯州自动化产品供应商奥斯汀，建议使用这些准则来确定能源消耗和解决潜在节能策略：
•找到效率低下的系统和故障系统并修复它们
• Adjust clock-controlled systems for shorter operational time and ensure systems are not working on holidays
•较低的一般能源使用
•在您的业务位置找到最适合能源概况的费率关税。
In order to implement energy facility management, several things are needed:
• Data logging a few of the most important equipment parameters such as electrical usage, gas usage, and forward and return temperatures. While sampling may be every five seconds, a good periodic data storage is 15 minutes, giving 96 registrations per 24 hours.
• Automatic collection of data, storage, displays and Web access to data
•自动报告提供概述
• Automatic calculation of least-costly rate tariff
• An energy engineer with a keen eye to figure out if energy is wasted or should be used differently. The engineer should be able to calculate savings based on change scenarios.
•设施内的联系人，谁能够强制执行变更。
据估计，植物通过实施该计划，植物可以在设施的能源消耗中达到10％至25％。然而，NI注意到，敏锐的工程师难以找到敏锐的节能。
