Understanding Your Energy Culture: the key to change?
Energy management is increasingly a focus for organisations, driven by fluctuating prices and the need to meet climate change targets. Technology and management systems alone will not lead to the desired energy performance – a good ‘energy culture’ is required to ensure that technology is used correctly and management systems flourish.
The EI has therefore developed a new tool to help organisations understand and improve their energy management culture.
The ‘Understanding Your Energy Culture’ tool can be used to kick-start an energy management improvement programme. The methodology is very effective at engaging workforce and senior management, encouraging discussions about topics that may never have been discussed before, and helping to identify key energy management issues, both behaviours and processes.
