Energy Management Handbook for ASEAN (Draft)Summary
The rapid economic development of the ASEAN (the Association of Southeast Asian Nations)member countries is continuing and it is expected that their energy consumption will also
grow rapidly in the future. Therefore, efficient use of energy and measures for preventing
global warming will become even more necessary than ever.
This program is one of the main projects under ASEAN Plan of Action for Energy
Cooperation (APAEC) and is named PROMEEC (Promotion of Energy Efficiency andConservation) in ASEAN, which was authorized by ASEAN Ministers of Energy Meeting(AMEM). This program consists of three projects, “major industries,” “buildings” and“improvement in infrastructure for energy management”, hereinafter referred to as
PROMEEC (Major Industries), PROMEEC (Buildings) and PROMEEC (Energy
Management) respectively.
The fiscal year of 2006 is the seventh year of implementation of PROMEEC (Major
Industries) and PROMEEC (buildings) and the third year of PROMEEC (Energy
Management). The efforts to implement the activities by the counterparts such as the focal
points of the respective countries including ASEAN Center for Energy (ACE) are becoming
more established and active. Awareness of the need for a reduction in energy consumption has
further penetrated into these countries, due to rising energy prices and a tighter energy supply– demand caused by a recent high level of oil prices and remarkable economical developmentof the Asian countries.
To achieve this target more effectively, aiming at enhancing and establishing the infrastructure
for energy management, the PROMEEC (Energy Management) was established and launchedin 2004 in addition to PROMEEC (Major Industries) and PROMEEC (Buildings), based on
the discussion with and agreement by the representatives from the ASEAN countries.
The ideal target of this project is to establish the “ASEAN Energy Management System” to beshared by all the ASEAN countries within about 5 years.
Moving forward the target, in this fiscal year as the third year of PROMEEC (Energy
Management), the following have been prepared and some completed and started its
operation.
1) Establishment and operation of the “ASEAN Award System of Best Practices in Energy
Management for Industries and Buildings”
2) Preparation and operation of the system to disseminate tools for energy management suchas the technical directory, the in-house database and handbooks
3) Preparation and operation of the system to utilize the existing implementing organizations
possible to provide services for energy audit and training
The specific activities as follows have been smoothly implemented and successfullycompleted.
♦ Intensive Seminar-Workshop and visit to enterprises and organizations
In the ASEAN 7 countries, the Intensive Seminar-Workshops were held and the ECCJ /ASEAN experts visited some enterprises and organizations. The team members presented
the specifics of the PROMEEC projects and the basic plan of the “ASEAN Energy
Management System”, exchanged opinions with participants and requested them toparticipate in the project activities and to utilize the tools and programs prepared by the
PROMEEC (Energy Management) project.
♦ Start implementation of the “ASEAN Award System of Best Practices in Energy1Management for Industries and Buildings”
The award system stated its operation, for the purpose of collecting and disseminating
excellent cases of practicing energy management in the fields of industry and building
among the ASEAN countries.
The members of the committee (Board of Judges (BOJ)) were selected by the respective
ASEAN countries and the 1st BOJ meeting was held on September 20th and 21st in 2006,
then the official announcement to the start the award system including the call for the 1st
application was made by the ASEAN side in October 2006. Following this announcement,
the “Research Forum in Japan” was held in December 2006 by inviting the BOJ memberswith the purpose of improving the evaluation guideline and the application form.
In the ASEAN countries, the application is continuing, under the plan to close applicationin early May 2007 and to select awardees until June 2007.
♦ Development of various energy management tools (technical directory, in-house databaseand handbooks) and the its dissemination system
The draft of the energy management handbook was prepared. Moreover, the ECCJ / ACE
jointly developed the basic design of the system to disseminate the energy management
tools including the technical directory and the in-house database.
♦ Revision of the basic plan of the “ASEAN Energy Management System”
Based on the actual results of the activities mentioned above, the plan of the “ASEAN
Energy Management System” was revised and finalized through discussion with therepresentatives from the ASEAN 10 countries.
As a result of the above activities, it could be achieved to have prepared the basic functions of
the “ASEAN Energy Management System” and started implementing the “ASEAN Award
System of Best Practices in Energy Management for Industries and Buildings”.
The activities in ASEAN of this fiscal year started with the Inception Workshop (common for
the three projects) in July 2006 and closed by the Summary and Post Workshops (common for
the three projects) in February 2007. In the Summary and Post Workshops, gathering the focal

Objectives and Background of the Project

The objective of this project is to explore and propose measures for efficient use of energy inthe countries and the regions which contribute to a stable energy supply for Japan, through theinvestigation and analyses on the energy policies and tendency of energy consumption,
provision of advice on efficient use of energy by exchanging resource persons, targeting tobuild a stable and suitable infrastructure for energy supply and demand to meet theinternational and domestic economic and social environment.
By building the infrastructure and basis for energy management for the purpose of promoting
energy conservation in the major industries and buildings, in order to achieve the above
objective, the PROMEEC (Energy Management) aims at contributing to the promotion ofenergy conservation and environmental protection through the promotion in realizing energy
conservation measures in the Southeast Asian nations by assisting the activities of ASEAN.
This project was established in 2004 and is called as “PROMEEC (Energy Management)” in
the ASEAN side. PROMEEC is the abbreviation for the “Promotion of Energy Efficiency andConservation.” It is a collaboration program between the Ministry of Economy, Trade andIndustry (METI) and ASEAN, approved by the ASEAN Ministers on Energy Meeting(AMEM). METI-ECCJ is technically and operationally cooperating with ASEAN bysupporting ASEAN both in the establishment of the infrastructure and basis for energy
management essential for promoting energy conservation in the industry and building sectorsof ASEAN countries and in the realization of improvement. We are also cooperating by
supporting improvements of the system from a technical and operational point of view.
The goals of this project are to establish the following.
1.

Sustainable infrastructure and system for energy management called as the “ASEAN
Energy Management System” which can be shared by the ASEAN countries andcontributing to the promotion of energy conservation in the industrial and building
sectors.

2.

Specific effective functions for the “ASEAN Energy Management System” to provide
customers with facilities and services to assist the activities for implementing anddisseminating various improvement for energy conservation, such as energy audit,
training services and information provision, including rule to smoothly and properly work
these functions in the “ASEAN Energy Management System”

3.

Effective collaboration with the PROMEEC (Major Industries) and PROMEEC(Buildings) projects for the purpose of sharing information and utilization ofaccomplishments of the projects to disseminate the outcomes, and so on.

This project was established based on the experience and the achievements of PROMEEC(Major Industries) and PROMEEC (Buildings) being implemented since 2000. Namely, thisproject was established in the fiscal year of 2004, as a new project of PROMEEC, to promote
improvements in energy management which is the common issue for both PROMEEC (major
Industries) and PROMEEC (Buildings) and is the most effective measures for energy
conservation.
To achieve the above-mentioned goals, the activities for a long term of approximately 5 years

Plan of “ASEAN Energy Management System”

The followings are the important direction required for the “ASEAN Energy Management
System” of which basic plan was established through the activities until FY 2005.
(1) System and its functions can be shared among all the ASEAN countries.
(2) Activities related to individual policies and laws are not included.
(3) The fundamental functions consist of the function needed for the actual implementationand the tools to assist activities of the governments and enterprises to promote activities
and enhance infrastructures for energy conservation(4) In the future, the system will include the function to coordinate implementation ofprojects under the international cooperation with Japan and EU.
Accordingly, the functions equipped with will be provision of information, services for energy
audit and training, consulting / advisory services for actual implementation and award
systems / campaign for collection and dissemination of useful information. A system toprovide these functions actually is required. From an operational point of view, for the
purpose of realizing the requirement to share the system among the ASEAN countries, thefollowings are also required for the system.
(1) Optimum design of the total system(2) Future organization of a coordination team aiming at further effective cooperation by thecountries outside ASEAN
Based on the direction mentioned above, the specific concept of the “ASEAN Energy
Management System” was established, as shown in Fig II-1-1

Moreover, it was confirmed that the functions to be equipped with the “ASEAN Energy
Management System” should provide useful information and tools especially to assist
enterprises in ASEAN in their voluntary activities for promotion of energy conservation.
Namely, it is important that the enterprises establish the sustainable basis of energy
management and the “ASEAN Energy Management System” will effectively work especiallyfor a stage of initial introduction and process until they build their basis. Generally, theprocess to establish a sustainable energy management system starts with technology transferfrom the outside for introduction of the energy management system, then, the standardization
including preparation of database based on voluntary activities with self effort follows, next
the up-gradation of the system including organization a team for management for enhanced
activities through usual operation of the energy management system and finally ends up
building the sustainable energy management system.
The scope of functions of the “ASEAN Energy Management System” includes assistance ofactivities of enterprises from the initial introduction of energy management and technologies
for energy conservation until the stage of systematization and standardization for stabilization.
This concept is shown in Fig II-1-2.

1． Intensive Seminar-Workshop
28 people from the government and concerned enterprises, including newly appointed Mr.
Victor Jona (Deputy Director General of Energy, Ministry of Industry, Mines and Energy)
who was recently promoted from the Planning Division, attended this workshop and it was
successfully completed with intensive and active discussions taking place. In spite of his busy
schedule, Mr. Jona participated in the workshop over the entire day and made timely
comments in answer to questions or comments from the other participants. Excellent opinions
were also exchanged between the participants.
The program (common to every country) is given in Attachment-III-1. Two new methods
were introduced at the Intensive Seminar- Workshop this time. In brief, at first, the companies
to which participants belong and its business associates were requested to actively participate
in the PROMEEC projects itself and each program in the PROMEEC (Energy Management)
project at the end of the seminar session. Following that, secondly, the two sessions weresetup, namely the sessions of panel discussions and individual advisory service forparticipants.
In Cambodia, the panel discussion session integrating the individual advisory session was
conducted hence making individual consultations public. There were interesting conversationsin the panel discussion including a sensitive discussion and questions from a participant
working for a NGO. According to them, namely, the electrical power meters checked andinstalled by the government were totally unreliable in terms of accuracy even though they
were related to electrical charge payments, and advice was requested on how to handle thatkind of problem in terms of energy management. Our opinions were that should be dealt froma technical viewpoint. What we felt about this issue through discussions by the people
concerned was that mutual trust among Cambodians including reliabilities of equipment
was rather weak except what oneself is concerned about and controlling. We are quiteIII-2

concerned about this point.
２． Visits to concerned organizations including companies(Request for participation in and cooperation to the activities of the PROMEEC Projects)
The ASEAN-ECCJ team visited the "Cambodia Hotel Association", "Electricity Authority of
Cambodia (EAC)", "Garment Manufacturers Association of Cambodia (GMAC)" and"Electricite Du Cambodge (EDC)” for the sake of requesting their enthusiastic participation in
PROMEEC projects and each of the programs under the PROMEEC (Energy Management)
project.
The details of discussion made in each organization are described hereafter.
At the Cambodia Hotel Association, we talked with people from member hotels (including
two hotels at Siem Reap), and they promised their participation in and cooperation to thisproject and programs as an association. They said that the association would meet within two
weeks and they wished to raise the issue of participating in The ASEAN Award System forBest Practices in Energy Management for Industries and Buildings. For our part, we requested
them to discuss with those concerned from the hotels which were energy-audited in the
PROMEEC (Building) project and to encourage them to apply to the award system.
In addition, we enjoyed the high expectations at EAC that our project and what we wereattempting to do was good, and furthermore they promised to promote their participation inand cooperation to this project.
Furthermore, in the Garment Manufacturing Association of Cambodia (GMAC), they
understood the significance and achievements of the PROMEEC projects knowing that June
Textile and M&V among nearly 400 member firms had participated in the PROMEEC (Major
Industries) project. Based on the understanding, they pledged to prepare a letter written in
Chinese to ask for cooperation to the PROMEEC projects together with the URL address of
ACE. We hoped that this letter would be sent to their member companies. We also requested
them to discuss with those concerned from the garment factories which were energy-audited
in the PROMEEC (Major Industries) project and to encourage them to apply to the award
system.
At EDC, they also recognized the necessity to strengthen the energy management at
power-plants and the power distribution division, and pledged their participation in andcooperation to this project. There was a participant of the latest JICA group training course
among the interviewees. According to him, he had reported his boss about his action plan
prepared in Japan submitted to JICA after returning to his home country, and his boss has
enthusiastically supported him in conducting the training for energy conservation for
employees, so our visit this time was of good timing. In addition, as they expressed theirintention to request support from Japan that would combine the provision of devices forenergy audit and the dispatch of experts from Japan, we advised to submit a request letterfrom MIME to METI when they finalize the specific requirements through discussion withconcerned persons in Cambodia.

Summary of Activities
First, ECCJ / ACE explained the purpose of the visit and outlined PROMEEC projects.
The Cambodia Hotel Association has 24 member hotels in Phnom Penh, 54 in Siem Reap and3 in Sihanoukville. The association is functioning well, and carrying out an action to pressure
the government to postpone enforcing the Accommodation Tax. The profitability of hotels is
gradually declining due to the recent increases in electricity charges and other various costs.
At the Intensive Workshop held on September 11th, a participant from Cambodia Hotel
Association had replied to the questionnaire that he could not understand the activities of
PROMEEC project very well. Accordingly, in the meeting, we again explained the outline of
PROMEEC activities as follows.
(1) Purpose of PROMEEC project and the past activities implemented in Cambodia.
The team explained the specific experiences as follows.
- Energy audits and workshops for buildings carried out at the Sofitel Hotel in Siem
Reap
- Energy audits and workshops for major industries conducted at the garment factories
in Phnom Penh
(2) Technical Directory and Database that are currently under development(3) The Award System that will soon start.
(4) ASEAN Version of the Energy Management Handbook under planning to develop andupload on the website
Regarding the award system, we also explained the possibility that even small hotels will beable to apply for the award system for energy management and their local language would be
accepted for preparing application. At the same time, we informed that the first Board ofjudges for the award system will be held to announce the start of the award system for energy
management in the near future (within 2 weeks).
However, in fact, it appears that few hotels in Phnom Penh are promoting energy
conservation.

Summary of Activities
First, ECCJ / ACE explained the purpose of the visit and outlined PROMEEC projects.
EAC is a domestic Cambodian institution that drafts laws and regulations in relation toelectric power.
Although Mr. Marith participated in the Intensive Workshop held on September 11th, weagain requested the three gentlemen the active participation of EAC in PROMEEC.
Specifically, we asked cooperation to provision of information and data reflected to develop
the Technical Directory and Database including proposals for improvement of these tools.
According to them, there are very few people in Cambodia who concretely understand theimplementation of practical Energy Management (EM), and the EM conditions differ fromthose in Thailand or Malaysia. Hence in this situation they would like us to develop the
Database or Technical Directory that will be made by PROMEEC to be simple anduser-friendly. (ACE and ECCJ realized that these tools should be based on the minimum
specifications.)
Their vision is that the consumption of oil used for in-house power generation at factories andcompanies will be reduced by knowing and practicing energy management.

The garment industry in Cambodia will be able to access to information on specific cases ofother ASEAN member countries through utilizing the Technical Directory or Databasedeveloped in the PROMEEC projects. In addition, we requested their cooperation by
explaining the benefits of the award system for energy management. Namely, companies canreceive enormous merit if they win the award system.
They say that GMAC is considering the utilization of solar power. We added more
explanation that in this case, for example, they might be able to promptly find some actual
examples by using the Technical Directory or Database. GMAC gradually realized thesepoints of the PROMEEC projects and cleared up their thought that they would introduce the
PROMEEC projects and activities under the project in the next Board Meeting.

Summary of Activities
Although EDC was initially established in 1957, its function was disrupted due to the war,and then newly re-established in 1997. Therefore, EDC has a relatively short history.
First, ECCJ / ACE explained EDC about the purpose of the visit and outlined PROMEEC
projects including various activities and “ASEAN Energy Management System”. Next, the
ECCJ-ACE team requested them a broad range of cooperation in the future.
The main points of discussion were as follows.
(1) In response to our request for their active participation in PROMEEC in future, they
explained the following.
- EDC is in the position where they are able to request their customers to participate in
the projects- The appropriate organization to request participation in the project for industries is
MINISTRY OF INDUSTRY MINES and ENERGY(2) As oil prices are rising, EDC wishes to improve as much transmission-loss as possible. Ifthey reduce the current 15% of loss by just 1 percent, it could save US$1.5 million. (Inthe previous meeting with EDC, we were informed that a considerable amount of electric
power was stolen in addition to the transmission loss).
(3) Power consumption by pumps and lubrication used as the auxiliaries of the diesel power
generators is too high.
(4) There is no night time discount system of the electricity charges due to the diesel power
generation.
(5) They expect PROMEEC to help building the capacity of human resources at EDC.
(6) EDC considers expanding the EDC training center through assistance by ADB (so far themain purpose of the training is to improve the skill level of workers).
(7) Unlike Japan and Thailand, energy-conservation has not spread throughout Cambodia
yet. They wish to implement training with assistance from Japan. In addition, they lackthe necessary measurement devices needed in implementing energy audits. They expectthat Japan will offer a variety of cooperation.
In response to this request, ECCJ advised that EDC could request METI through MIME
on a basis of the bilateral cooperation because PROMEEC is a multilateral cooperation..

1． Intensive Seminar-Workshop
38 people participated in this Intensive Seminar-Workshop and Mr. Chareune Inthavy,
Deputy Permanent Secretary of the "Ministry of Energy and Mines", gave a welcome address.
Attachment-III-1 shows the program of this seminar workshop.
As there was problem with a language for communication, Mr. Khamso of the focal pointconsecutively interpreted the points of the presentation and discussion. So we considered thatthe participants adequately understood the content though it took a little time. At thepanel-discussion after the seminar, we were questioned on the specific ways of utilizing thetools such as the “Energy Management Handbook” and “In-house Database” that will be
prepared in this project. And one participant in particular from a cement company requested
comments and advice to solve concrete problems at a factory. In response, we provided themwith more detailed explanations or some comments and advices, which would have resulted
in the fruitful and successful discussion to transfer the essence of the energy management
through explanation and discussion based on these specific cases.
At Laos, we also requested the participants that their companies, including related companies,
would actively participate in the PROMEEC projects and utilize each program provided by
the PROMEEC (Energy Management) project.
2. Visits to concerned organizations including companies(Request for participation in and cooperation to the activities of the PROMEEC Projects)
We visited 4 companies, “Vientiane Steel Industry Co., Ltd.”, Lao Brewery Co., Ltd.”, “StateEnterprise for Agriculture – Industry Development IMP-EXP & General Service” and“Khounta Timber Processing Co., Ltd.”. (One out of the four is a state-owned company.)
We requested these companies for their active participation in the PROMEEC projects andutilization of each program provided by the PROMEEC (Energy Management) project.
At each company, the actual decision-makers and their deputies including participants of theIntensive Seminar-Workshop held on the 14th, met with us and promised their participation
III-8

and cooperation in the activities and programs of the PROMEEC (Energy Management)
project.
The details of discussion made in each organization are described hereafter.
Vientiane Steel Industry Co., Ltd. is the largest steel manufacturer in Laos. (There are 3 steel
companies in the country.) As for the production size, the company purchases billet andproduces bar and shaped steel at around 50 thousand tons annually. While the annual
manufacturing capacity is 150 thousand tons, they failed to accurately forecast the domestic
demand due to the currency crisis that occurred in the Southeast Asia in 1997 when thecompany was first established.
When we requested for their participation in and cooperation to the PROMEEC projects, they
showed a strong interest in the PROMEEC projects and promised their participation andcooperation. They are enthusiastically tackling energy conservation activities, in particular in
making efforts and creating better ideas to reduce the heating time per batch so as to reduce
consumption of heavy oil, 50 liter/t of which is used at re-heating furnace. We exchanged
opinions and offered some simple advice.
Lao Brewery Co., Ltd. is expanding their business backed by a solid increase in demand dueto the annual 6.5% of economic growth of Laos. When we visited the factory, the construction
work to build more production lines was in progress based on the plan to increase theproduction by 30% and the interviewees were very busy. However, they did understand andshowed strong interest in PROMEEC and expressed both their intentions of participating inand cooperating with us in the future and their expectations of future advices by Japaneseexperts through this project. This company is one of the excellent representative companies in
Lao PDR. They are actually carrying out energy conservation activities through 3 projects andhave developed and used an original database. We observed the actual factory conditions
when we walked through the factory and ensured the measures taken to be quite good.
Moreover, the company is proceeding with studying a project under the CDM scheme withMaekawa Manufacturing Co., Ltd of a Japanese company, which may prove a high level ofcapabilities of their engineers possible to lead not only Lao but also ASEAN enterprises.
State Enterprise for Agriculture – Industry Development IMP-EXP && General Service is astate-owned company producing cement at 3 factories, different from the business area
imagined from the name of the company. The business of the company was very steady undera strong economic growth and they have constructed the third factory and started its operation
since November 2004. They said that the company would offer the two factories energy
audits in early October under the PROMEEC (Major Industries) project. This company also
better understood the projects and showed their strong interest in this project, intension toactively participate in and cooperate with us in the future and expectation for advices for
improvement to be provided by Japanese experts.
This company actually started practicing activities to reduce consumption of electricity andcoal including practices based on TQM. Although they do understand the importance andeffectiveness of training for employees, however, they are struggling because it is tough andnot so easy to achieve much effect due to the current level of the ability of employees being
not very high. Accordingly, we felt that both the need for and expectations from tools such as
the Energy Management Handbook that will be made are both high.
Khounta Timber Processing Co., Ltd. was established in 1989 and produces and exports
flooring timber, furniture, and so on as major products made of four different kinds of woodthat includes teak.
Because this company supplies semi-finished wood products to a Japanese manufacturer in
the Shikoku region, they have established their production technology possible to pass thequality inspection by the Japanese company. The quality of products was proven because they
won an award provided by EU and they showed us the certificate.
III-9

Most of the equipment in the factory is simple, which mainly consists of electrical ovens forsterilization, many saw mills, and dust collectors.
Since they didn't understand how they could participate in and contribute to the PROMEEC
projects, we well explained and discussed the PROMEEC projects to deepen theirunderstanding, to make them recognize the values of the activities and various programs
under the PROMEEC (Energy Management) project. Through the discussion, it was possible
to confirm their intension to participate in the award system for energy management and toutilize some tool.
We consider that this company's participation in the PROMEEC projects in the future is very
meaningful because the size of this company would be typical among small - medium sizedenterprises sharing the majority in ASEAN.

management and trial use of the In-house Database, Technical Directory, Energy
Management Handbook and so on. After that, the ECCJ-ASEAN team exchanged opinions onthese matters. After the explanation and discussion, Mr. Chan showed his pleasure toparticipate in and cooperate to the PROMEEC projects.
(1) This factory produces steel material for construction using billets. The current unit
consumption of energy is 50 liters-oil per ton, they do want to reduce this to 40 liters-oil
per ton. They also want to achieve energy saving by reducing treatment time in the
furnaces.
(2) Although the production capacity of this factory is 150,000 tons a year, the actual
amount produced 50,000 tons a year of half the capacity due to the weak demand andhard competition with Thailand, China and domestic manufacturers in Lao PDR. This
company targets the domestic market and cannot sell more unless there is a large scale ofconstructions such as construction of dams.
(3) Mr. Yoshida advised them on the possible innovation of the production system in the
future and Mr. Chan much appreciated for this advice.

participation in the Intensive Seminar-Workshop held on September 14th.
This company is a state-owned enterprise of which major business is to produce cement
though the name of the company provides us with a different imagination of the business area.
Their factories were subjected to the energy audit for the cement industry in October 2006
under the PROMEEC (Major Industries) project in Lao PDR. A top manager replied that he
was looking forward to seeing us again at that time. He expressed his intention toenthusiastically support and participate in the PROMEEC projects.
(1) This company is a state-owned enterprise with 1,320 employees. Besides cement, it also
produces and sells construction materials such as blocks and roofing, and wooden
products. It has three cement producing factories, and the second factory was designed
and constructed by the Tianjin cement technology company of China.
(2) In the #2 factory, TQM has been practiced since the end of 2002. At present, they are
implementing activities step by step approach.
(3) In Lao PDR, TQM has been practiced in factories of Lao Cotton and Lao Brewery inaddition to this company.

Intensive Seminar-Workshop held on September 14th and explained the purpose of the visit
and outlined the PROMEEC projects.
This company is categorized to the Small- and Mid-size Enterprise (SME) and owns 280
employees. In response to the question whether or not SMEs could participate in the
PROMEEC projects and the programs such as the award system for energy management, the
ECCJ-ACE team rather requested them for their active participation because the actual
participation by some SMEs will encourage other similar size of companies and successful
cases by these companies will also contribute to information sharing between SMEs in
ASEAN. We further conveyed our intention to have them actively disseminate theirsuccessful example to other SMEs in ASEAN. After discussion, we then toured the plant.
(1) The company was privatized in 1989. 60% of its capital is Thai. The products are woodflooring materials, door materials, and furniture made of Chinese quince or rose wood,and many of its products are exported to Japan. And because of that, they emphasizedenhanced quality control. This year it won a Quality Commitment Award.
(2) They explained their experience of energy conservation since 6 years ago. Then, theyheld a meeting where all the employees participated in and discussed how to implement
EE&C. As a result of activities based on the results of discussion, they did succeed in
reducing energy consumption.

Mr. Christopher Zamora (Manager), Mr. Juanito M, Ms. Maureen C. Balamiento fromASEAN Center for Energy (ACE) and staffs including the focal point from Vietnam
participated in the above mentioned activities.
1． Intensive Seminar-Workshop
30 people participated in the Intensive Seminar-Workshop. Mr. Chu Duc Khai, Deputy
General Director of the "Dept. of Science and Technology", gave the welcome address as arepresentative from Ministry of Industry on behalf of Mr. Hiep, the Director General.
Mr. Vu Van Thai, who is the leader of SOE in Vietnam and the Deputy General Director of
the International Cooperation Dept., also attended the first half of the seminar-workshop.
We sincerely felt how Vietnam recognizes the importance of both the PROMEEC projects
and the bilateral cooperation with Japan because these high level government officers did
attend the activities of the PROMEEC while pressed for time because they also had to deal
with a Russian governmental energy related mission of more than 50 people on the same day.
Attachment-III-1 shows the program of this seminar workshop.
We here again think that the participants could clearly understand the presentation anddiscussion because they arranged an interpreter taking into consideration the language
problem for communication. In the panel-discussion held after the seminar, inquiries andcomments were made about each of the tools that will be developed in the PROMEEC(Energy Management) project such as the Energy Management Handbook and the In-house
Database, or the utilization of the existing implementation institutions. Accordingly, theIntensive Seminar-Workshop was very successful and fruitful.
MOI in particular actually outlined a policy of disseminating the Energy Management
Handbook, Technical Directory and so on domestically through their political activities,
which was delightful to us and we felt that Vietnam has became a strong promoter of the
PROMEEC activities.
III-15Other participants expressly came from such distant places as Ho Chi Minh City andevaluated that the activities and programs including the award system for energy management
under the PROMEEC (Energy Management) project would be very useful. Based on thesefacts, we believe that we could obtain many future cooperators through this kind of activities.
2. Visits to concerned organizations including companies(Request for participation in and cooperation to the activities of the PROMEEC Projects)
The ECCJ-ASEAN team visited 4 companies and institutions, namely the "Hanoi Textile
Company", "Hanoi University of Technology", "Institute of Energy" and "Sao Vang Rubber
Company", and requested their active participation in the activities of the PROMEEC projects
and each program under the PROMEEC (Energy Management) project.
At each company, as well as in Lao PDR, we met the actual decision-makers and theirassistants, and they promised their enthusiastic participation in and cooperation to theactivities and program of the PROMEEC (Energy Management) project in the future.
The details of discussion made in each organization are described hereafter.
At the "Hanoi Textile Company", we met a Deputy Director and some people who had
attended the Seminar-Workshop on the 18th. They say that this company is one of the top
three among about 70 textile-related state-owned enterprises in Vietnam and is also aninternational company who imports cotton and chemical fibers from India and Thailand, dyefrom Indonesia, processes yarn, textiles and clothing and sewing, and then exports theseproducts to Japan, the U.S and the EU. This company has already introduced their suggestion
system by the all employees not limited to energy conservation but to the others. Energy
conservation is an important theme to them so they have already implemented various
activities. They consider energy conservation to be obligatory, and they expressed theirintention to participate in the PROMEEC activities including the award system for energy
management, and required concrete information to be offered.
At the "Hanoi University of Technology", Dr. Luong, the Vice Director at the Institute ofHeat Engineering and Refrigeration (IHER), and several staffs including a professor,
associate professors and graduate students met with us, and we held a very enthusiastic
discussion. Through this discussion they realized that they would be able to utilize theactivities and program of the PROMEEC (Energy Management) project in relation to R&D
and education / training activities that they currently have implemented. Some of theiractivities are implemented for the projects funded by GEF (Global Environmental Facility).
And they promised that they will recommend not only the IHER members but their trainees or
students to utilize the tools and programs such as the Energy Management Handbook underdevelopment by PROMEEC (Energy Management) project. At the same time, they mentionedthat they were strongly interested in ECCJ activities, and enthusiastically expressed their hopefor future cooperation with ECCJ.
At the "Institute of Energy (IE)", Dr. Lien, a chief of International Cooperation and his staffs
met with us. They are constantly checking the ACE website and have already seen theTechnical Directory etc. In particular they were enthusiastic about utilizing tools such as theEnergy Management Handbook, and simultaneously showed interest in participating in
implementing training for concerned foreigners and dispatching lecturers as enforcers of it.
As they showed their intention to participate as a service provider for training through a new
search system for service providers and customers through the ACE website, we requested
them to provide information of IE that can be uploaded to the ACE web. They readily
accepted the proposal. IE has also already started various new projects such as projects
funded by ADB and the master plan development assigned by JICA.
"Sao Vang Rubber Company" is a semi-state-owned company that produces rubber products
such as tires for automobiles. Here, the vice Director and 3 managers met with us and we
III-16

were allowed to make a walk-through survey at the factory. This company, like many othercompanies, also considers energy conservation to be important, and they explained that they
are operating an Energy Management System developed by them. And they displayed theirintention to participate in the activities and program of PROMEEC (Energy Management)
project. Although we experienced a problem with language for communication, this is also apart of reality in ASEAN to be considered in implementing the projects.
The 1st BOJ Meeting for the ASEAN Award System of Best Practices in Energy
Management for Industries and Buildings
Consecutively, BOJ (Board of Judges) meeting of the captioned activities were held in Hanoi
on September 20th and the 21st. The number of the BOJ members is limited to one percountry in principle. The BOJ members gathered from eight countries except Singapore thathas none nominated yet and Malaysia that suddenly changed its member. These BOJ
members lead the actual activities of the “ASEAN Award System of Best Practices in Energy
Management for Industries and buildings” (herein after referred to as “Award System forE.M.”), though the ECCJ experts are advisers to offer comments and advice.
Mr. Vu Van Thai from MOI, the SOE leader, gave the welcoming address and kicked off themeeting. Then, the BOJ members selected Mr. John A. W. Turangan, Chairman of theIndonesian Building Association, as the first chairperson and Ms. Amaraporn Achavangkool
from DEDE in Thailand as the first vice chairperson for a period of 2 years.
The major purpose of the BOJ meeting was to discuss and agree upon the plan of the “Award
System for E.M.”, to announce the actual start of the “Award System for E.M.” and to call thefirst application. This time, these purposes were achieved and all the preparations werecompleted except the processes for approval to start the first application and various works by
the coordinator (ACE).
The detailed agenda is shown hereunder.

For some committee members this was the first experience as a BOJ member. Therefore, atfirst, the plan and activities of the PROMEEC (Energy Management) project and the proposed
basic plan of the “Award System for E.M.” were explained by ECCJ and ACE, and next thedetails of the plan was discussed and confirmed by the BOJ (EM) members. As a result, therevised plan based on the discussion was agreed upon by the BOJ (EM) members.
The point of the discussion was to provide ideas and comments from each BOJ member's
point of view on the detail of the basic plan especially evaluation items, and to suggest thedetails of the application form which should be a guideline for applicants to prepare theapplication document. They enthusiastically discussed these points. In addition, the BOJ (EM)members confirmed the schedule to actually implement the 1st application.
The discussion was based on the basic plan proposed by ECCJ, and the BOJ (EM) members
revised some points from their viewpoints. The major points of decisions are as follows andsome modified points are based on an ASEAN way of doing.
(1) Evaluation items
The item of “Presentation” was added. This means "Ordering information", "visibility"and "understandability" of the submitted application document.
The following are the finalized items and score distribution for evaluation.
♦ Impact: 30% (energy conservation, economic practicality, environmental
protection, etc.)♦ Sustainability : 25% (degree of employee participation and involvement,
management policy, voluntary level, organization, training, etc.)♦ Replicability : 25% (cost, technology, practicability, applicability, etc.)♦ Other Factors : 15% (innovation / freshness, creativity, impression forming, etc.)♦ Presentation : 5%
Taking the above into consideration the number of pages of the application form is to bearound 17 including some attachments.
(2) Schedule
Application period is to be from October 2006 to April 2007 after completing theapproval by the focal points and SOE leaders by circulating the plan and the firstwinners will be selected in May 2007. (The BOJ (EM) members judged it to be tough toclose the application in December 2006.)
By the end of the application period each country may hold a competition and submit the
III-19selected cases to ACE. The award will be done by the ceremony at the AMEM that will
be held in Singapore in July 2007. And therefore, the schedule is similar to the building
award.
Moreover, the "Research Forum in Japan" which will be held in mid December 2006
aims at formulating a method and guideline of evaluation, and the BOJ (EM) members
were requested to prepare documents made by ECCJ which is required for invitation to
Japan such as visas.
(3) Number of awardees
Each country can send up to 4 cases (two for industrial sector, two for building sector) to
the ASEAN competition. In the ASEAN competition, one case as the winner and twocases as runner-ups will be selected from each sector hence two winners and four
runner-ups in total, and then these will be awarded at the AMEM conference in July
2007.
(4) Confirmation of the role of BOJ (EM) members, Focal Points and ACE
The meeting confirmed in particular that in each individual country the BOJ (EM)member and the Focal Point will mutually cooperate with each other and promote andencourage stakeholders to apply the “Award System for E.M.”.

Summary of Activities
At first, the ECCJ / ACE team explained the purpose of the visit and outlined the activities of
the PROMEEC projects. This company is a semi-state-owned enterprise that produces rubber
products such as tires for automobiles.
According to them, the recent surge in energy prices has had a great impact on this company’sbusiness. Accordingly, reducing energy costs is indispensable in further strengthening theircompetitive edge. After exchanging information, they took us to walk through the factory.
In the factory, they produce the rubber products using the processes from vulcanizing natural
rubber to molding. The equipment was imported mainly from China because of expensive
price of Japanese one.
Finally we requested their future cooperation. In response, they expressed intention toparticipate in the activities and program of the PROMEEC (Energy Management) project.
We experienced a difficulty in communicating each other because of language problem.
However, we should recognize that this kind of difficulty is well observed in the ASEAN
countries and should establish measures to solve in order to smoothly implement activities of
the PROMEEC projects. This is one of important findings in Vietnam.

1． Intensive Seminar-Workshop
There were 46 participants at this Seminar-Workshop, and the Chief Executive Officer of"PTM (Malaysia Energy Center)" Dr. Anuar Abd Rahman gave a welcoming address that
included a keynote.
Attachment-III-1 shows the program of this seminar workshop.
The participants came from the government, the governmental institutions such as the Energy
Commission, private companies and universities. In the Seminar-Workshop, a presentation on
the policy and measures for energy conservation was made the Malaysian government, andthe participants have actively discussed including many questions and answers concerning theactivities of the PROMEEC projects and the Malaysian policies for energy conservation.
Regarding the “ASEAN Award System of Best Practices in Energy Management for
Industries and Buildings”, as the “ASEAN Award System for Buildings” had already started
and was well known by those concerned, we received questions and comments concerning therelationship with the ASEAN Award System of Best Practices in Energy Management, so
further explanations were made for the sake of even better clarity. As a result, the merits andfeatures of the Award System of Best Practices in Energy Management were plainly wellunderstood. Some participating companies have highly evaluated the Award System forEnergy Management and questioned details such as how to concretely fill in the application
form.
Based on discussions made, the ECCJ-ACE team felt the necessity to further discuss thedetailed guideline in relation to filling in the application form with the BOJ (EM) members at
the “Research Forum in Japan” that will be held in December. In addition, as for the various
tools for energy management, it could also be judged that the Seminar-Workshop raised theinterest of participants, based on the fact that they questioned the details as to when and how
they would be able to actually get and use each tool such as the energy management
handbook. It should be specially noted that the time spent for the Seminar-Workshop became
overwhelmingly long because of questions and comments by almost all of the participants
including discussion and consultation with some participants after closing the
Seminar-Workshop.
At the end of the seminar session, we asked those concerned participating institutions andIII-25

companies to enthusiastically participate in the PROMEEC projects and the programs in the
PROMEEC (Energy Management) project.
Ms. Norhasliza from Ptm, who was a Malaysian Focal Point, commented that in many
companies the top managers didn't particularly place high priority on saving energy because
energy prices are still cheap. However, many participants were concerned about the future
conditions of energy and the environment and increasing risk damaging these. As there wereoccasions to exchange opinions and discuss for Malaysian participants, we thought that thisevent was particularly beneficial to the participants.
2. Visits to concerned organizations including companies(Request for participation in and cooperation to the activities of the PROMEEC Projects)
The ECCJ-ACE team including Ms. Norhasliza and Mr. Phubalun from Ptm visited two
companies, namely "Raikon Building Management Co." which is a building managementcompany operating some large buildings in the central area of Kuala Lumpur and "JG
Containers (Malaysia) Sdn. Bhd" which is a glass container maker. The team requested thesecompanies their enthusiastic participation in the activities of the PROMEEC projects and theprograms in the PROMEEC (Energy Management) project.
At each company, the actual decision makers and their assistants including participants at the
Intensive Seminar-Workshop held on the 20th met with us and promised their enthusiastic
participation in and cooperation to the activities and programs under the PROMEEC (Energy
Management) project. Each company allowed us to visit the fields of the building managed by
Raikon Building Management Co. or major factory line of JG Containers (Malaysia) and we
confirmed some fine measures taken in for energy conservation, as described later.
They also expressed their intention especially to apply for the ASEAN Award System of Best
Practices in Energy Management, and we again replied to concrete questions concerning theapplication form.
The details of discussion made in each organization are described hereafter.
"Raikon Building Management Co." is a building management company that manages
buildings in the central area of Kuala Lumpur including the Hong Leong Bank, where the
ECCJ-ACE team met seven people or executives, managers and engineers who were in
charge of the operation and maintenance of each building.
The company itself is new and was established in 2005. The company has already introduced
equipment, and implemented improvements for energy conservation. The president calls
meetings on a regular basis with the person responsible for each building, and they exchange
information and opinions on possible improvements. They are enthusiastic about practicalactions that Japanese companies take. The most prioritized theme of the company is how tostrengthen capacity of employees by enhancing training and education like Japanesecompanies.
They questioned Ptm whether it could conduct training on the fundamentals of energy
conservation and management, and Mr. Yoshida did give him some advice on that. Then,
ECCJ-ACE toured the Hong Leong Bank building and gave possible advice, and exchanged
opinions on the power receiving / distribution system and data management of the BAS(Building Automation System). Moreover, they including executives questioned on how toapply to the Award System for Energy Management. In addition, they showed a strong
interest and expectations in particular for the Energy Management Handbook.
At the same time, since we understood that there are some improvement case examples
possible to apply to the award systems for building and for energy management, werecommended them to apply for these cases without hesitation. They promptly began to
discuss it with Ptm staffs.
"JG Containers (Malaysia) Sdn. Bhd" is an Indian company that constructed the factory in
III-26

Malaysia and has been running it since 1972. They produce glass containers using 30 - 40%
cullet. The technology manager and his two assistants met with us. Ptm selected this factory
as a model factory for MIEEIP. They not only have made various improvements since
introducing a new type of glass melting furnace supplied by Japanese Asahi Glass Co.,Ltd, in
2002, but also are developing some future plans for improvement programs. The introduced
furnace in particular improved production by 50% (80t/d to 120t/d) with the same energy
consumption hence doubled energy efficiency and is an excellent example of improvement.
They said that they could conduct energy audits by themselves. The slogan of “5S” waswritten in both Japanese and Malay and is hanged in the meeting room, which may prove thatthe company has a basis of a Japanese-style activity including TPM. This company was also
considering applying for the ASEAN Award System of Best Practices in Energy Management
and we received detailed questions on preparing the application form.
We were permitted to make a short visit of the factory and found some room for improvement.
We gave them some advice on possibilities for reducing energy consumption, based on theexperience of Mr. Yoshida, namely an improvement in air-cooling to prevent refractory of themelting furnace from erosion and a design modification for reducing radiation losses from thebottom refractory. They said that they heard this kind of technological concept for the firsttime. Hence as an example that ideas from a fresh point of view can be created by knowing
excellent cases in other sectors collected through the Award System for Energy Management,
they all, including participants from Ptm, could specifically understand the possibility andbenefits of this system.

We gave them some advice on possibilities for reducing energy consumption, based on theexperience of Mr. Yoshida, namely an improvement in air-cooling to prevent refractory of themelting furnace from erosion and a design modification for reducing radiation losses from thebottom refractory. They said that they heard this kind of technological concept for the firsttime. Hence as an example that ideas from a fresh point of view can be created by knowing
excellent cases in other sectors collected through the Award System for Energy Management,
they all, including participants from Ptm, could specifically understand the possibility andbenefits of this system.

1． Intensive Seminar-Workshop
In the Intensive Seminar-Workshop, Mr. Mariano S. Salazar, Undersecretary of DOE, gave awelcoming address which included a keynote.
Attachment-III-1 shows the program of this seminar workshop.
26 participants from the government and governmental institutions such as the Department ofEnergy (DOE), and from private companies and universities attended. The specifics ofactivities and programs of the PROMEEC projects were presented including the presentationof the policy and measures by the Philippine government. The discussion was very active
including opinion exchange and questions / answers.
This time we also received questions and comments on the relationship between thewell-known ASEAN Award System for Buildings and the ASEAN Award System of Best
Practices in Energy Management, and we made further explanations for the sake of further
clarification. In addition, the Don Emilio Abello Energy Efficiency Award has been
implemented for a long time in the Philippines and some of the people who had won thataward in the past were participating. Accordingly, the team discussed the differences in
evaluation criteria and the required conditions to apply for the ASEAN Award System of Best
Practices in Energy Management. In case of the Philippines, although the activities for the
ASEAN Award System for Energy Management could share the current activities under the
Don Emilio Abello Energy Efficiency Award, it will be impossible to coincide everythingwith the ASEAN Award System for Energy Management. Therefore, in order to avoid someduplicated activities, the Philippines could revise a part of the activities of the Don Emilio
Abello Energy Efficiency Award if required.
Furthermore, the question/answers and discussions became quite heated over the content of
the Energy Management Handbook, relation to the Technical Directory and details of the
In-house Database. These were discussed including the relationship with energy conservation
activities that DOE is currently implementing, and the discussions and opinion exchange wereactively made between DOE and participants from the companies.
Many participants mentioned that they understood the activities being done under the
PROMEEC (Energy Management) project and its program quite well and were very
beneficial. Actually, they wanted to study the program more and promptly utilize the results
III-32

in their business, which encouraged us for our future efforts. As many didn't know muchabout the PROMEEC projects until they attended this Intensive Seminar-Workshop, someparticipants expressed their intention to follow PROMEEC activities in more detail from now
on and wished to participate in activities if they had the chance to do so.
At the end of the seminar session, we asked those concerned from each participating
institution and company for their enthusiastic participation in the activities of the PROMEEC
projects and each of the programs in the PROMEEC (Energy Management) project.
As we noted above, as the participants exchanged opinions and made in-depth discussions
between the Filipinos after having heard our presentations, we felt that the Intensive
Seminar-Workshop provided the participants with a very beneficial opportunity.
2. Visits to concerned organizations including companies(Request for participation in and cooperation to the activities of the PROMEEC Projects)
As our appointment at the planned food & drug factory couldn’t be confirmed, we instead
visited two companies, or "Ayala Property Management Corp." (a building managementcompany) along with three people, Mr. Domingo and Ms. Almonares from DOE and Ms.
Maureen from ACE. In these companies, the team requested their enthusiastic participation in
the PROMEEC projects and each of the programs in the PROMEEC (Energy Management)
project.
At each company, participants of the Seminar-Workshop on the 23rd met with us andpromised their enthusiastic participation in and cooperation to the activities and program of
the PROMEEC (Energy Management) project. Each company is enthusiastically tacklingenergy conservation, in particular, and expressed their intention to apply for the ASEAN
Award System of Best Practices in Energy Management and had some concrete question
about the application form. As vital discussions were held at each company, we believe that
we deepened their understanding of the activities of this project.
The details of discussion made in each organization are described hereafter.
"Ayala Property Management Corp." manages various buildings constructed and owned by
Ayala Land mainly in Makati city. Indeed, this company manages 54 buildings including
offices, shopping malls, parking lots and collective houses, and dispatches staffs including
energy managers at each of those buildings. Three of the buildings among the buildings
managed by this company have already been awarded in the ASEAN Award System of Best
Practices Buildings. Namely, these are Tower One Building, MSE (Makati Stock Exchange)
Building and the 6750 Tower Building, and MSE was energy audited in the PROMEEC(Building) project in the past.
This time, we met an energy manager who is responsible for the integrated management ofthese buildings and awarded in the personnel section of the Don Emilio Abello Energy
Efficiency Award in the Philippines. He showed strong interest in the ASEAN Award System
of Best Practices in Energy Management. They have organized a CQI (Cost Quality Initiative)
Team, setup energy conservation / energy audit groups under that and are carrying out
activities. Although they mentioned that they are understaffed, the organization is quite inorder. Program and tools provided by the PROMEEC Energy Management Project were
evaluated as being useful ones.
Their scope of their managing facilities includes the common facilities such as the powerreceiving and distribution system in each building. In the meeting, they made very detailed
confirmation on the difference in conditions of application and evaluation between the Don
Emilio Abello Energy Efficiency Award System and the ASEAN Award System for Best
Practices in Energy Management of Buildings. And they also questioned us on actual practiceof the energy management in Japanese companies and on concrete energy conservation
technology, and we replied to those questions.
III-33

The Richmonde Hotel is a new hotel established seven years ago through being invested in by
the Mandarin Hotel, and a technical executive who was also in charge of operations andmaintenance of the Mandarin Hotel facilities met with us. He has been awarded in the
personnel section of the Don Emilio Abello Energy Efficiency Award three times and is also
one of the 35 Energy Managers recently certified for the first time by the AEMAS (ASEAN
Energy Manager Accreditation System) and was very willing to apply for the ASEAN Award
System of Best Practices in Energy Management.
This time we confirmed that the hotel industry organized an association (the Hotel
Association) with many hotels members. We'd heard that the Hotel Association holds a
meeting nearly every month and shares information with each other. Mr. Logelio D. Lampa,
who met with us, also plays a role of a technical leader in this association. According to DOE,
connections between members of this Hotel Association are very strong and that is a world
different from the industrial sector such as the steel industry. Mr. Lampa advised Mr.
Domingo from DOE to meet the chairman of this association and introduce the activities of
the PROMEEC (Energy Management) project. At this hotel, they also made very detailed
confirmation on the difference in conditions of application and evaluation between the Don
Emilio Abello Energy Efficiency Award System and the ASEAN Award System for Best
Practices in Energy Management of Buildings.
In addition, we were questioned on the energy management practices in Japanese companies,
related to the discussion of the Energy conservation Act in the Philippines that is currently
suspended in Congress. In particular there were many questions on building sector regulations,which we did reply to.

Mr. Christopher Zamora (Manager) from ASEAN Center for Energy (ACE) and staffs
including the focal point from Brunei Darussalam participated in the above mentioned
activities.
1． Intensive Seminar-Workshop
At the Intensive Seminar-Workshop, as the Energy Minister could not attend, Mr. Hj Ismail
Bin Putih, an executive engineer of DES, gave the welcome address including a keynote.
Attachment-III-1 shows the program of this seminar workshop.
42 participants from the government and governmental institutions such as the Department ofElectrical Services (DES), private companies and universities attended. The Intensive
Seminar-Workshop was successfully completed with very vital questions / answers and active
discussions including in-depth / advisory discussion for some participants after closing theseminar. (Mr. Okouchi, Second Secretary and Chief of Economy Group from the Embassy ofJapan, participated in the opening ceremony.)
As for Brunei Darussalam, it is said that the awareness of energy conservation is still weakbecause energy is even cheap. Hence, according to some concerned persons, even though theyemphasize the importance of energy conservation, it is rather difficult for that to lead into
practical activities.
However, the Energy Minister is displaying strong leadership in regard to the promotion ofenergy conservation and the participants at the Intensive Seminar-Workshop included persons
who are enthusiastically tackling energy conservation in each sector. They provided questions
and comments from various viewpoints in the Intensive Seminar-Workshop. The participants
were from the sectors of the supply side, the transportation, architecture, education including
the Ministry of Religion.
More specifically, the following were the questions and required advices in the Intensive
Seminar-Workshop.
(1) Programs in the fields of renewable energy and power grid under ASEAN Plan of Action
for Energy Cooperation
III-38

(2) Possibility to apply for the activities on the supply side(3) Specific activities to save energy at religious facilities such as the national mosque(4) Energy saving procedures for road lighting including request of information on Japanesecases (This is one of instructions made by the Energy Minister.)
Although some questions were not expected, we could well handle these questions since we
could understand the background. Through discussion, the team could understand theconditions of Brunei Darussalam. We should consider that this is not only Brunei conditions
but possible conditions for ASEAN and such understanding should be reflected to theactivities and programs in the future.
2. Visits to concerned organizations including companies(Request for participation in and cooperation to the activities of the PROMEEC Projects)
We visited 3 companies, namely the "Oil & Gas Discovery Center" of "Brunei Shell
Petroleum Co. Sdn Bhd," which is a joint petroleum enterprise between a European company
and Brunei, the "Butra Heidelberg Cement SDN BHD," a cement maker, and the "Orchid
Garden Hotel". At each company, we requested their enthusiastic participation in the activities
and program in the PROMEEC (Energy Management) project and all of the companies
showed their wishes, wills and interests in participation in the specific programs of the
project.
As both the cement maker and the hotel have cooperated in the OJT activities of the energy
audits including the follow-up surveys, they have already understood the activities of the
PROMEEC projects. Therefore, we could discuss details of the ASEAN Award System forEnergy Management. As Mr. Hashimoto, Ambassador of Japan, mentioned in Orchid Garden
Hotel, these companies should be evaluated because they made effort to improve energy
efficiency even under environment economically difficult for energy conservation.
The details of discussion made in each organization are described hereafter.
The "Oil & Gas Discovery Center" of "Brunei Shell Petroleum Co. Sdn Bhd. (BSP company)"
is an equally owned joint enterprise between the Brunei government and the Shell (RoyalDutch Shell). The Brunei government has been recently attempting to increase its stock ratio.
This company is implementing education, displays on and events concerning science andtechnology which include energy, in particular, targeting youngsters from primary schools
through teenagers in cooperation with Brunei University basically free of charge. We werevery impressed with the policy of the company to contribute to the society by spending profits
from its business for education of the younger generation that will support the future. Actually,
their activities have brought fruitful achievements. We heard that the facility was establishedin 2002, and commenced operation in 2003 particularly targeting schools in the Seria
Community where people working for the company live (40,000 residents including 3,500
employees).
It takes 1.5 hours to drive from the central of Bandar Seri Begawan to the OGDC facility
situated in the place near the Malaysian border where crude oil was firstly discovered in 1921
in Brunei Darussalam. It is an excellent facility composed of a main building, pavilion andmovie theater (commercial cinema programs are also available at night) in addition to a
multi-purpose open space that has a traffic rule training field. We observed these facilities,
listened to some explanations on how they tackle energy conservation and discussed and gave
advice on possible improvements. In addition, we requested them to participate both in the
program under the ASEAN Energy Management System to utilize the existing implementing
organizations and in the activities of energy audit at the BSP buildings under the PROMEEC
projects. They showed their intention to accept our request.
The production volume of Butra Heidelberg Cement SDN BHD is, as an industrial teamsurveyed and reported upon last year, currently below 50% of its capacity due to the increased
III-39

import of cheaper cement from China. When we visited there, the factory was shut-down forthe maintenance. As availability of the facility was low, the operation has shifted from thecontinuous mode to the intermittent mode and they maintain the facility during shutdowns.
We heard that the president had recently changed, however, they have been continuing
improvements recommended last year by the team of PROMEEC (Major Industries). They
are preparing a proposal on improvement for power saving of the blowers to discuss with the
top management. Furthermore, the company has introduced TPM with the cooperation from
Onoda Cement Company and the activities and management are also in progress including
preparation of check lists for maintenance as SOP (Standard Operation Procedure).
With this background, we hope that they could understand benefits and significance to utilize
the programs included in the ASEAN Energy Management System including various tools forenergy management and system to utilize the existing implementing organizations.
In addition, the information on the Award System for Energy Management System wasalready provided by Mr. Yaman of the Focal Point, and they said that they were considering
participation in it but wished to confirm some details to Mr. Yaman later.
Although this company is in a tough situation because its business environment is very critical,
we requested them their continued cooperation to the PROMEEC projects as a model case forother ASEAN member countries and their enthusiastic participation in workshops held inother ASEAN member countries.
As aforementioned, Mr. Hashimoto of Japanese Ambassador to Brunei and Mr. Okouchi ofSecond Secretary (Chief of Economy Group) from the Embassy of Japan participated in themeeting held at Orchid Garden Hotel. The Ambassador Hashimoto gave a welcome address
upon opening the meeting, and then discussions commenced. The Ambassador's statements
made in this meeting and our activities were released to the press by the Japanese Embassy.
The Ambassador Hashimoto did attend the meeting until the end, and listened to thediscussion and opinion exchanged, recognized the achievements of the PROMEEC projects
including the value of Japan's contribution. He said that he was much satisfied with the resultof not only the meeting but also the specific achievements of the PROMEEC projects. We
believe that Brunei people felt the presence, substantial assistance and status of the Japanese
government through the fact that VIPs from Japan participated in the activities.
In this hotel, a team of the PROMEEC (Buildings) conducted energy audit including thefollow-up survey, and they have also been implementing the recommended improvements andachieved energy saving of 14%. Accordingly, they requested us advices on specific activities
to improve operation of BAS (Building Automation System) and transformer system,
including specific questions on the “ASEAN Award System for Energy Management”
Regarding the improvement in the BAS, the team provided advice on the viewpoint andmethodology of practicing energy management taking a few examples. As for the
improvement in the transformer system, the team advised them to discuss with Mr. Yaman.
Concerning the application conditions of the Award System for Energy Management, Dr. Tanof a BOJ (EM) member and Mr. Zamora of ACE explained details together with timeschedule. These discussions were very significant in having confirmed the points to be
discussed with the BOJ (EM) members in the Research Forum in Japan held in December
2006 since the hotel staffs clearly stated that they would apply to the award system in the
future. The methodology to discuss with concerned persons before the Research Forum inJapan seems very effective to efficiently develop the plan.
Finally, we requested them for their continuous participation in and cooperation to the
PROMEEC (Buildings) project including the presentation of achievements in theseminar-workshops in other ASEAN member countries.
Concerning the articles press-released, the Borneo Bulletin published an article about the
Intensive Seminar-Workshop in its morning paper on November the 28th and the other one
III-40released by the Embassy of Japan on November the 29th. However, as for the television, we
unfortunately could not watch the news because the local channel was not available at thehotel where we stayed. At the same time, the Embassy of Japan also uploaded our activities
on the website. (URL Address : http://www.geoship.jp/BRUNEI/)

Summary of Activities
At first, the ECCJ / ACE team explained the purpose of the visit and outlined the activities of
the PROMEEC projects. We requested them to participate in the activities and program of the
PROMEEC projects in the future, in particular, their enthusiastic participation in the ASEAN
Award System of Best Practices in Energy Management under the PROMEEC (Energy
Management) project and to cooperate in the PROMEEC (Energy Management) projectthrough utilizing each of the tools under development and providing comments on
improvement. (As Mr. Iskandar Bin HJ Alias participated in the Intensive Seminar-Workshop,
he fully understood about that.)
The planning and construction of this facility were based on the similar facilities establishedin Japan and the Philippines such as “Mirai-kan” in Japan. The purpose of establishment of
OGDC also includes the increase of visitors, by positioning itself as a featured facility forpromotion of local business.
In OGDC, there are the Gallery (main building), Exhibition Hall (various pavilion),
Exploratorium (educational place for children), Theater (3-D theater), Cafeteria, a go-cart
field for teaching traffic rules. The targeted visitors vary widely from children (9 – 17 oldyears) through to adults and its annual number of visitors from 2003 - 2005 was around
25,000.
The displays in the Exhibition Hall are intended to be "Hands-on Learning" where they can be
III-42

touched and experienced, for example, they include astronauts training devices. In addition,
the educational programs include various Workshops, Holiday Camps, Technical Challenges
and Little Explorer etc. In March 2006, the Astronaut Mr. Mori visited OGDC for "Meet the
Science" and made lectures. The students are requested to pay small amount of fare forparticipating in these activities and programs.
Although the plan and implementation of the programs are done by staff at the facility, they
are supported and helped in development of details by UBD (University of Brunei
Darussalam), the Brunei Museum and by volunteers on many occasions.
Although the power consumption at OGDC peaked 250 thousand kWh per month in 2004, it
was lowered to 200 thousand kWh per month through their efforts such as reducing spot lights
at night. The voltage for power receiving is 66kV and then reduced to 6kV and 33kV. There
are three kinds of power tariff system for industrial / commercial / residential use and thecommercial tariff is applied for this facility which is very cheap at 0.15 BD/kWh.
They said that they had changed policy to further enhance energy conservation in addition to
the emphasis on “Safety First”. The visiting team advised them to install individual power
meter in the respective buildings and to identify the power consumption of each building.

Summary of Activities
At first, the ECCJ / ACE team explained the purpose of the visit and outlined the activities of
the PROMEEC projects. We requested them to participate in the activities and program of the
PROMEEC projects in the future, in particular, their enthusiastic participation in the ASEAN
Award System of Best Practices in Energy Management under the PROMEEC (Energy
Management) project and to cooperate in the PROMEEC (Energy Management) projectthrough utilizing each of the tools under development and providing comments on
improvement.
The team of the PROMEEC (Major Industries) conducted energy audits in February 2001 at
this factory and made the follow up survey in December 2005. In spite of the annual
production capacity of 500 thousand tons of cement, the actual production volume was 50%of that, hence around 250 thousand tons per year. However, due to importing cheap Chinese
cement since July 2005, the production has further declined and they are losing their market
share. Among those who met with the energy audit team of the PROMEEC (Major Industries)
last time, the head of the factory Mr. Ardi Widjaya recently retired and a new head was
appointed. But as he was absent due to his business trip, only Mr. Achmad Hidayat met us.
The factory uses a large amount of electricity and the monthly charge for it is around 80
thousand BD and they want to lower power consumption. However, the unit consumption ofelectric power tends to increase because of frequent shutdowns of the factory.
The factory receives electric power at 11kV then drops it to 6.6kV. Low voltage power issetup at 380V. It has two large electricity consuming devices: a grinding mill motor(2800kW) and a mill fan motor (355kW). As it is difficult to improve the former, they are
III-44

planning measures to reduce power consumption of the latter. (They wish to implement theplan shortly.)
For the purpose of improving cost competitiveness, they have stated activities based on the"5S" and TPM etc. Although they feel that it is hard to change corporate culture, they decided
to implement the activities for their survival in business. In addition, they have introduced
SOP (Standard Operation Procedure) and prepared the check lists for maintenance of motors
and transformers etc. and started using these lists.
Although nobody from this company could participate in the Intensive Seminar-Workshop
held on 27th, they said that they would study the presentation materials given later by Mr.
Yaman. We felt that they had so many issues to clear up and improvements to be implemented
for them in order to survive while they were very eager to promote energy conservation(electricity saving).

Mr. Philip Ho Youn Von participated at the Intensive Seminar-Workshop on the 27th
Summary of Activities
It was a very meaningful meeting because the ambassador of Japan from Embassy of Japan in
Brunei Darussalam attended.
At the opening, Ambassador Hashimoto gave a sophisticated keynote in which he stated theimportance of energy conservation, achievements in Japan and a future direction and
expectations of Brunei Darussalam for energy conservation. Since Ambassador Hashimoto
fully attended the meeting until the end, we believed that he could understand the PROMEEC(Energy Management) project and feel a nice atmosphere of cooperation activities in field.
Moreover, his presence brought a strong impression of cooperation by Japan to persons fromASEAN including Brunei Darussalam.
After that, the ECCJ / ACE team explained the purpose of the visit and outlined the activitiesof the PROMEEC projects. We requested them to participate in the activities and program of
the PROMEEC projects in the future, in particular, their enthusiastic participation in the
ASEAN Award System of Best Practices in Energy Management under the PROMEEC(Energy Management) project and to cooperate in the PROMEEC (Energy Management)
project through utilizing each of the tools under development and providing comments on
improvement.

They seemed already to have well understood these points, because the hotel has been
implementing improvements since 2003 when the ECCJ team implemented energy audit andMr. Philip attended the Intensive Seminar-Workshop held on November 27th. In that sense,
this hotel is one of good cooperators.
Furthermore, Mr. Shamsul explained some achievements of this hotel in energy conservation
activities. Since the 1st energy audit in 2003, the hotel has taken measures for improvement
such as replacing the bulbs with more energy efficient lamps, raising room temperatures to
22℃ and rationalizing utilization of a Building Automation System (BAS) in the hotel. In
addition, they are studying the plan to change the number of transformers from the current
two sets to one set.
Based on these achievements, they are very positive to apply for the ASEAN Award System
of Best Practices in Energy Management that will be implemented under the PROMEEC(Energy Management) project. Concerning this award system, Mr. Shamsul inquired
enthusiastically about the schedule and conditions that should be written on the application
form. The ECCJ-ACE team replied to these questions. As Dr. Tan of a BOJ (EM) member
attended, we could deeply make appropriate and pinpointed discussion. Finally, we requested
them for their continued cooperation in the PROMEEC projects through utilizing the various
tools under development in the PROMEEC (Energy Management) project and providing theircomments for improvements.

1． Intensive Seminar-Workshop
At this seminar Ms. Ratna Ariati, who is the Director in charge of new energy and energy
conservation in Directorate General of Electricity and Energy Utilization, Ministry of Energy
and Mineral Resources (MEMR), gave a welcome address which included a keynote.
Attachment-III-1 shows the program of this seminar workshop.
57 participants from the government and governmental institutions such as those concerned
from MEMR, ACE, private companies, industrial associations and colleges attended, and very
vital question/answers and discussions were made. The Intensive Seminar-Workshop was
successfully finished. It is believed that the participants could deepen their understanding of
the activities of the PROMEEC projects and the programs of the PRMEEC (Energy
Management) project.
In Indonesia, as well as the other countries, Ms. Indarti, a section head of the Energy
Conservation Section of MEMR and a Focal Point of EE&C-SSN, also presented the current
policy and measures, the national program and international cooperation with foreigncountries in the field of energy conservation, then detailed questions / answers anddiscussions were made with participants on these issues including the relationship with theactivities under the PROMEEC projects. Therefore, the Intensive Seminar-Workshop
provided the participants with an opportunity to better know the national policy and programfor energy conservation by the Indonesian government.
Regarding the activities of the PROMEEC (Energy Management) project and the programs
under the "ASEAN Energy Management System" that we are trying to establish, we mademany question/answers, discussions and comments with those concerned from thegovernment, the implementing organizations and companies that are actually implementing
energy management. In that sense, this was a very good Intensive Seminar-Workshop.
Finally, introducing the result of the analyzed answers to the questionnaires that we got fromparticipants at the Intensive Seminar-Workshops held in the six countries to date, we showedthat these programs and tools to be prepared and operated in the "ASEAN Energy
III-48Management System" in the PROMEEC (Energy Management) project would be very
effective and realistic measures for ASEAN stakeholders to realize improvement under thecurrent infrastructures for energy management lowering barriers.
On that basis, we requested participants to participate in the activities and programs of the
PROMEEC (Energy Management) project, to give valuable comments on further
improvements of the program and activities, and further to request for their cooperation in
expanding the network of enterprises and persons concerned in ASEAN, which closed theIntensive Seminar-Workshop successfully in Indonesia as the last country we had visited.
2. Visits to concerned organizations including companies(Request for participation in and cooperation to the activities of the PROMEEC Projects)
The ECCJ/ACE team visited "PT Pasir Sari Raya Industri,” of a glass manufacturer, "Hotel
Mulia" and "Kartika Chandra Hotel”. All the three companies showed strong hopes andwillingness or interest in participating in the activities implemented and specific programs
developing under the PROMEEC (Energy Management) project.
"PT Pasir Sari Raya Industri" and "Kartika Chandra Hotel" are members of the "Partnership
Program" established by MEMR that implements free energy audits and recommends
improvements to be implemented by the member companies and then evaluates unit energy
consumptions. The chief engineer of the Hotel Mulia is the vice chairman of the "IndonesianHotel Engineers Association" and actively working for information sharing among themembers. Therefore, these companies have a good understanding of information sharing
through participation in the activities of the PROMEEC projects.
The details of discussion made in each organization are described hereafter.
PT Pasir Sari Raya Industri is a company that annually produces 73,000 tons of glass cups andtableware and owns 1,300 employees and a relatively large factory site of 14ha. However,with only 20 top managers (including section managers) and 5 engineers, they seemed very
busy and it would be difficult to conduct trainings for employees. The ECCJ/ACE walked
through the factory and found that they were too busy to realize so called "5S" even though
they were good engineers. Even with regard to safety, many problems were observed in theirwork area such as employees working with no shirts on, and broken glass scattered in thevicinity of the passageway.
Concerning their issues on and interests in energy conservation, they did not have any goodideas on specific measures including energy audit measure to utilize combustion waste gas of
200℃ from the glass melting furnace for drying silica sand that shared 60% of the raw
material. Moreover, they wanted to improve the imbalance between the phase voltages ofalternate-current power source.
Regarding the above issues, the ECCJ/ACE team gave them some advices by citing someexamples from the program and tools prepared by the PROMEEC projects and we think they
understood well enough the point that the program and tools could be beneficial to them. In
addition, they participated in the seminar of the PROMEEC (Major Industries) project; they
have the material presented by “JG Container” from Malaysia and were very interested in thiscompany's improvement. Notifying them that we had visited that company one week ago andthat they have also expressed their intention to participate in and cooperate to the PROMEEC
projects, we emphasized the possibilities and benefits of collectively exchanging information
among companies in certain same business area via the PROMEEC network, which resulted
in our belief that they could understand the positive effect of participating in the PROMEEC(Energy Management) project.
Furthermore, they reported that PLN (a state-owned electric power company) were collecting
abnormal electricity charges in the form of fines. According to them, the fines are charged for
III-49

all days of one month even if 50% or more electricity is utilized even for only an hour in one
month exceeding some basis which was unclear. We couldn't understand whether the basis forthat was the capacity of the electricity receiving transformer of the factory or some otherstandards, and the reason why the fine is imposed for other time than extraordinary utilization.
Those who met with us didn't understand the mechanism neither. It is a serious problem forthe companies that a government related institution collects fines without any explanation.
We questioned Mr. Wafa from MEMR about it. He replied that he had received similarreports from other companies as well but not from PLN but he could not understand it. Mr.
Wafa immediately made a telephone call to a person of PLN to confirm. According to Mr.
Wafa, it was decided to hold a meeting with those concerned from PLN for confirmation of
the fact including discussion for improvement. It was very meaningful that this kind ofproblem was discovered when we visited the factory of this company and that Mr. Wafa from
MEMR took such prompt action.
At Hotel Mulia, the Chief Engineer Mr. Deddy who had participated in the Intensive
Seminar-Workshop of the previous day couldn't meet us due to his busy schedule so his
subordinates met with us. As Mr. Christianto, who had once worked as an engineer at the
Mid-Plaza Hotel when we had conducted an energy audit in 2004, was one of them, we met
persons who recognized rather well the benefit and significance of the PROMEEC projects.
He moved to the current position around four months ago. Although possibly experience andinformation is spread around in this country where it is usual for engineers to move aroundcompanies, as he mentioned, there are realistic situations that the succeeding engineer would
not continue improvements after an engineer left. This becomes a kind of risk of sustainability.
Taking this into consideration, the solution of this kind of problem too could be partly covered
when tools prepared by the PROMEEC projects becomes available.
The hotel is a still new and large hotel excellently designed with 996 guest rooms which
equipped with the high efficiency lighting system with a luminous control system, highefficiency boilers, operation control system based on the timer control and waste water
recycling. The energy consumption of air conditioning shares about 50% compared with 60%
of a typical number for hotels in this country. Observing that a temperature was setup at 21 ℃
in the lobby area, the team advised the importance to monitor and assess not only thepercentage of but amount of energy. In addition to the excellent facilities, they are also
making further progress in improvements and current issue is to improve energy consumptionof the boiler and chiller, but they had some points not clear. So, we advised them on how to
identify the actual conditions and possible improvements including viewpoints.
Through the discussion, we had them understand that the tools being developed under the
PROMEEC projects can be utilized effectively including provision of information ontechnologies that would be considered to introduce in the future.
Although they were interested not only in the ASEAN Award System of Best Practices inEnergy Management but also in the Award System of Energy Efficient Best Practice
Buildings, they did complain that the latter’s application form very complicated was very
tough to prepare. However, they felt that the application for the ASEAN Award System ofBest Practices in Energy Management would be relatively easy and they expected little
problem with application. This kind of comments should be forwarded to the members of BOJ(EM) and should be discussed for future improvement.
At the Kartika Chandra Hotel, the chief who had participated in the Intensive
Seminar-Workshop met with us so the activities of the PROMEEC (Energy Management)
project and effectiveness of each program were already well recognized. This hotel is arelatively old hotel constructed in 1971, some equipment seemed outdated and required forfurther improvement. The hotel's occupancy rate was varying 50% to 60%, which isconsiderably lower than the Hotel Mulia.
III-50From the viewpoint of energy utilization, with regard to air conditioning, the energy must be
saved based on the facts that the temperature in the lobby and passage was high and themeeting room was hot.
Furthermore, they hold the management level meeting everyday and the participants reportenergy consumption and discuss measures to reduce energy consumption. Beside, theengineering group holds a meeting once per month to discuss the improvement to reduce
consumption of electric power, fuel and water. In addition, another meeting with employees
from other departments is held once every three months to share information and ensure thethorough implementation of improvements.
As mentioned above, their organizational practices are very good, it seems that there are somebest practice cases of energy management. They also participate in the MEMR’s Partnership
Program and understand the PROMEEC projects. Their attitude was very cooperative.

Summary of Activities
At first, the ECCJ / ACE team explained the purpose of the visit and outlined the activities of
the PROMEEC projects. We requested them to participate in the activities and program of the
PROMEEC projects in the future, in particular, to participate enthusiastically in the ASEAN
Award System of Best Practices in Energy Management under the PROMEEC (Energy
Management) project and to cooperate in the PROMEEC (Energy Management) projectthrough utilizing each of the tools under development and providing comments on
improvement.
Mr. Albertus from this company participated in the Seminar-Workshop on the previous day,so he understood the purpose and activities of the PROMEEC (Energy Management) projectand had materials presented. This time, we held a fruitful meeting as we could meet and talkto Mr. Dani who is a Director and a son of the founder in the company. In addition, thiscompany is one of members (21 companies for this year in the industrial sector) thatparticipated in the Partnership Program of the government (MEMR). KONEBA had alreadycome and completed investigation on the utilization of electrical energy and will conduct
investigation on the utilization of thermal energy in the near future.
With regard to thermal energy, while the total amount of natural gas consumption is being
measured and there were orifice type of flow meters for fuel gas at the glass melting furnace,
no fuel gas consumption was measured at other facilities and equipment.
They wished to utilize combustion waste gas (over 200℃) from the glass melting furnace todry silica sand that shared 60% of the raw material.
With regard to electrical energy, they have a theme on countermeasures against an imbalance
III-52

of the phase voltages for the alternate-current electric power source. We gave them someadvices on this issue, in particular, we discussed the "RST Balancer" and finally requested
ACE to check information in the Technical Directory because it is the commercialized
technology.
While we were talking about electricity, they reported a problem with a penalty charge forelectricity. Namely, as for the monthly power charge, even if they make effort to reduce
electric power consumption, a big amount of penalty fare is charged when the peak demand
exceeds a level of 50% higher than a certain setup level. The problem is that the penalty fareis applied to all days in one month and there is no detailed explanation on the pricing system
including the reasons. Mr. Wafa from MEMR who accompanied us also didn't understand itvery well and he decided to have a meeting with PLN (a state-owned electric power company)
promptly in the coming week. It can be said that our investigation brought this company angood opportunity for this company to solve the problem.
When we toured the field, we found some safety problems and felt the necessity for thiscompany to start with the "5S" and safety training. In addition, depending on the facility, theratio of defect to product was high, hence improvement in this situation would realize themost immediate effect. They said that that this company had accepted technical assistancefrom Japanese Asahi Glass Co., Ltd from 1978 to 1982. The effect would be very big if they
improve the yield through receiving technical assistance again.

Award System of Best Practices in Energy Management under the PROMEEC (Energy
Management) project and to cooperate in the PROMEEC (Energy Management) projectthrough utilizing each of the tools under development and providing comments on
improvement.
Although Mr. Deddy, who was once a ship engineer and now the vice chairman of theIndonesian Hotel Engineers Association, participated in the Intensive Seminar-Workshop on
the previous day, he only made greeting when we left the hotel due to his busy schedule. And
Mr. Christianto transferred 4 months ago from the Mid-Plaza Hotel where the ECCJ experts
conducted energy audit in 2004 was acquainted with Mr. Yoshida.
This hotel is not only new but also the largest class in Indonesia; in addition, a large scale ofcondominium has been being built in its backyard. The location is also first grade being near
the Congress House and its business performance is good as the occupancy rate on that day
was 95%.
The term of construction of the hotel was as short as around nine months, and it has advanced
equipment such as energy efficient lighting facilities, high efficiency boilers and a water
recycling facility. A current theme is to improve energy used at the boiler and chiller, but thebasic procedures to start are to investigate the present energy consumption, to identify
problems and to and study possible improvement based on the analyses of the investigation
results. From this point, the team explained again that it would be very effective to utilize thevarious tools under development in the PROMEEC (Energy Management) project. According
to their data, the energy consumption of air conditioning shares is about 50% compared with
60% of a typical number for hotels in this country. They explained that the setup temperature
III-54was 21 ℃ in the lobby by the standard of the hotel owner. The team advised the importanceto monitor and assess not only the percentage of but amount of energy, observing the actual
temperatures. In other words, they have not yet established standards for operation on a basisof firm technical and practical background.
However, regarding electricity, we heard that there was a plan to replace the ballast at thattime and they were negotiating the price with makers. Their standard for investment was thatthe payback should be in 10 months or shorter.
They had a strong interest in the ASEAN Award System of Best Practices in Energy
Management. However, they did complain about the application form for the Award System
of Energy Efficient Best Practice Buildings because there were number of pages to be filled
and preparation of data and information is very tough.
In this field, it can be considered that the energy audits conducted under the PROMEEC(Buildings) project and each tool now under development in the PROMEEC (Energy
Management) would be very effective for their activities.

Seminar-Workshop on the previous day and considerably understood the activities andeffectiveness of the PROMEEC (Energy Management) project, we explained again thesepoints because there were other persons in the meeting. This hotel is one of members (11companies for this year in the building sector) participating in the MEMR’s Partnership
Program and they said that an investigation had already been done.
This hotel is a relatively old hotel constructed in 1971, some equipment seemed outdated andrequired for further improvement. The hotel's occupancy rate was varying 50% to 60%, whichis considerably lower. It was hot in the lobby and passage and hotter in the meeting room. The
room temperature of the air conditioning was setup at 25℃ and the share of energy
consumption by the air conditioning system was 60%.
In response to our questions on the organization for energy conservation, they explained that
operation meetings at the managerial level were held everyday and meetings of theEngineering Department were held every month. In the latter meeting, the participants
discussed about reducing consumption of fuel (gas and oil), electricity, and water. Moreover,they hold additional meetings with employees from the other departments every 3 months forthe purpose of sharing information and discussing improvement. For example, they haveinstalled the capacitor banks to improve the power factor of electrical equipment. In addition,
this hotel is a member of the Indonesian Hotel Engineers Association.
They were interested in the ASEAN Award System of Best Practices in Energy Management.
In addition, Mr. Aang knows Mr. John Turangan who is a member (chairman) of the BOJ(EM), so that it seems easy for them to get advice etc.

III-3-2 Summary of Replies from Participants to Questionnaire
The investigations were made based on the questionnaire to the participants of the Intensive
Seminar-Workshop. The main investigation items are as follows.
The details of the questionnaire are shown in Attachment III-3-2-1.
(1) Outline of organizations / companies where the participants are working(2) Barriers for the participants to promote energy conservation(3) Actual status of energy management and measures to breakthrough measures
implemented or under studying(4) Expectation for the “ASEAN Energy Management System” to be established by the
PROMEEC (Energy Management) project
The purpose of the investigation is to prove the following.
(1) Appropriateness of the basic direction of activities of the PROMEEC (Energy
Management) project(2) Effectiveness of program and functions to be equipped with the “ASEAN Energy
Management System”
125 participants out of 267 participants submitted the replies to the questionnaire. According
to the results of the investigation, it is proven that the direction of the PROMEEC (Energy
Management) project is appropriate and the programs and functions of the “ASEAN Energy
Management System” are effective. As a result, the PROMEEC (Energy Management) projectcontinues activities to establish “ASEAN Energy Management System” in accordance withthe present implementation plan.
Based on the replies received, the analyzed results are summarized below.
1. Barriers to promote energy conservation
At first, the barriers to promote energy conservation when participants implement
improvements are summarized in Fig. III-3-2-1.
According to the figure, a lack of information, a lack of capabilities of engineers andIII-59managers including a lack of person power are the main barriers. However, it would not bedifficult to lower or weaken these barriers. The activities implemented and the “ASEAN
Energy Management System” establishing under the PROMEEC (Energy Management)
project aim at assisting in lowering these barriers.

problems recognized by the participants.
(1) Lack of guideline to practice energy management(2) Lack of knowledge on energy management and lack of staffs possible to understand andpractice energy management(3) Insufficient tools and system to practice energy management
Actually, the “ASEAN Energy Management System” aims at providing ASEAN stakeholders
with tools and functions to effectively utilize for the purpose of solving problems mentioned
above.
3. Expectations and requests for PROMEEC (Energy Management) projects and “ASEAN
Energy Management System”
Based on the above recognition clarified above, the questionnaire asked expectations andrequests for the “ASEAN Energy Management System” which has been developed andstarted its operation under the PROMEEC (Energy Management) project. The summarized
replies of the participants are shown in Fig. III-3-2-3.
The following would be the important expectations and requests for the “ASEAN Energy
Management System”.
(1) Provision of useful tools for energy management(2) Provision of useful information and services for energy management(3) Participation in activities of the PROMEEC projects
Since the programs and tools of the “ASEAN Energy Management System” and activities of
the PROMEEC (Energy Management) project aim at meeting requests and expectations
mentioned above and being utilized by ASEAN stakeholders, it is confirmed that the basic
direction and specific activities of the PROMEEC (Energy Management) project areappropriate.
4. Points to be considered in implementing the project in the future
As aforementioned, the replies to the questionnaire by the participants proved that theactivities and the “ASEAN Energy Management System” to be established by the PROMEEC(Energy Management) project would be very useful and effective to promote energy
conservation through the establishing basis and infrastructure of energy management.
However, according to the replies from the participants, as shown in Fig, III-3-2-4,
approximately 60% of the participants had not known the PROMEEC projects until the
Intensive Seminar-Workshops were held. This fact shall be recognized and considered for
future improvement. Namely, it will be required that the ASEAN-ECCJ team including the
focal points should enhance activities to let more ASEAN persons to know the activities andachievements of the PROMEEC projects.

Evaluation of the “ASEAN Energy Management System” Plan and Future
Direction of Activities Based on the Results of Analyses

Based on the results of the replies to the questionnaire for the participants, it was possible toconfirm that the target and specific functions of the “ASEAN Energy Management System”
would coincide with the needs of ASEAN stakeholders including enterprises and concernedorganizations for energy efficiency and conservation in the ASEAN countries.
Namely, it was proven that the present policy and plan of the “ASEAN Energy Management
System” were appropriate in improving and/or supplementing capacities of ASEAN
stakeholders with a focus on providing concerned persons with information and services for
implementation.
In the Intensive Seminar-Workshops, furthermore, by knowing specific information and tools
provided by the “ASEAN Energy Management System”, the participants showed their
expectations that these information and tools would be very effective and their participation in
the activities in the PROMEEC (Energy Management) project would bring them large
benefits. This is an important achievement.
However, concerning the PROMEEC projects as a basis to establish and disseminate the“ASEAN Energy Management System”, it should be noted that many participants knew andunderstood the specifics of the projects for the first time in the Intensive Seminar-Workshops.
In the future, therefore, further efforts and ideas by ECCJ-ASEAN team including the focal
points will be required for ASEAN stakeholders to better know and understand the projects’achievements and the merits in participation in the projects’ activities.

Preparation and Operation of Functions to Be Equipped with the “ASEAN Energy
Management System”

IV-1 Outline
As described in Chapter II, the “ASEAN Energy Management System” is planned to provide
the following main functions.
(1) Provision of information, the award system and campaign to collect and disseminate
useful information(2) Energy audit(3) Training(4) Advice and coordination to smoothly work the above functions
In this fiscal year, the “ASEAN Award System of Best Practices in Energy Management for
Industries and Buildings” was started for the purpose of collecting and providing information
useful for energy management. Moreover, the following activities have been in process.
a. Drafting “Energy Management Handbook”
b. Establishing the system to disseminate and assist the development of “Technical Directory”
and a database for in-house use or “In-house Database” being developed under the
PROMEEC (Major Industries and Buildings)
On the other hand, as for the function to provide services for energy audit and training, basedon the results of investigations and study made to date, it has been studied to develop a systemand procedures for utilization of the implementing organizations which are existing andactually working in the respective ASEAN countries. According to the study results, it would
be realistic and optimum to establish the system for ASEAN customers to search and findsome suitable implementing organizations for business negotiation by inputting required
specific information of the implementing organizations and customers. In accordance with theabove results, this system is in process of development.
The details are described hereunder.

ASEAN Award System of Best Practices in Energy Management for Industries
and Buildings : Plan and Implementation
The plan of “ASEAN Award System of Best Practices in Energy Management for Industries
and Buildings” (hereinafter referred to as the “Award System for Energy Management”) wasestablished, and started the 1st application in October 2006.

IV-2-1 Results of Discussion of The 1st Board of Judges (BOJ)
As mentioned in Chapter III, the discussion and approval on the implementation plan
including the evaluation guideline were made and the application form was prepared by 9
members of the Board of Judges (BOJ (EM)) at Hanoi in Vietnam on September 20th and 21st,2006.
As a result, the implementation plan and the application form were approved and the start of
the “Award System for Energy Management” including the 1st application officiallyannounced in October 2006 by ASEAN Centre for Energy (ACE) through the focal points.
The details of the 1st BOJ (EM) are explained in Section III-2-3 of Chapter III.

IV-2-2 Results of The 2nd Research Forum in Japan
After having started the 1st application of the “Award System for Energy Management” inaccordance with the results of the 1st BOJ (EM), the 2nd Research Forum in Japan was held in
IV-1

Tokyo on December 12th through 14th in 2006 by inviting 10 BOJ (EM) members etc. fromASEAN for the purpose of improving the evaluation guideline and the application form.
Although the 1st application had started in the ASEAN countries since October 2006, in the
Research Forum in Japan, the evaluation guideline was refined and the application form was
improved by reflecting the refined evaluation guideline. Accordingly, since the Research
Forum included the programs to introduce various related award systems in Japan and toprovide the participants with opportunities of intercourses with concerned persons in someJapanese company by visiting a factory and of opinion exchange with several members of the
BOJ for the Japanese Award System of Excellent Cases for Energy Conservation, the BOJ(EM) members could make deep and more specific discussion based on the programs.
Concerning the 1st application and evaluation of the “Award System for Energy Management”,
the 2nd Research Forum in Japan resulted in big achievements in establishing the basis toimplement the “Award System for Energy Management”. Therefore, based on the activities
including the Intensive Seminar-Workshops and visits to factories and buildings in the 7
countries in September and November 2006, it was possible to complete preparation for
operation the “Award System for Energy Management”. Regarding the basic schedule, thefollowing were determined in the 2nd Research Forum in Japan. (Finally these were revised
later.)(1) Close the 1st Application
Late April 2007
(2) Determination of ASEAN Winners)
Early June 2007 (Tentatively on June 5th – 6th)(3) Official Announcement and ceremony) July 2007 (in the AMEM-METI Meeting)
The details are explained as follows(Purpose of the 2nd Research Forum in Japan)(1) Introduction of the award systems for energy conservation in Japan such as the award
system of excellent cases for energy conservation etc. including visit to an awarded
factory(2) Exchange of opinions on procedures and evaluation guidelines with concerned persons
in Japan(3) Refining the evaluation guideline and improvement of the application form of the“ASEAN Award System of Best Practices in Energy Management for Industries andBuildings”(Participants)
10 members from the ASEAN countries (9 BOJ (EM) members and 1 from the coordinatingorganization (ASEAN Centre for Energy)) and 6 Japanese including one interpreter(Refer to Attachment IV-2-2-1 for detailed names of participants.)(Program)
Refer to Attachment IV-2-2-2 in detail.
(Specific Activities and Results)
1. Situations of the 2nd Research Forum in JapanThe 2nd Research Forum is the activity related to the “ASEAN Award System of Best
Practices in Energy Management for Industries and Buildings” and was held in accordancewith the implementation plan agreed with the ASEAN in the inception workshop.
This award system aims at widely collecting cases of best practices in energy managementfrom factories and buildings in the ASEAN 10 countries and at sharing and disseminating thecollected cases in the ASEAN countries. On the hand, the award system is expected to bringtangible and intangible incentives and benefits to companies applied to the “Award System for
IV-2

Energy Management”, the plan of the award system also targets to realize these incentives andbenefits for applicants. In this fiscal year, 9 BOJ (EM) members (1 member in each country)
were selected from the ASEAN countries. (One member from Singapore has not yet been
selected.) These BOJ (EM) members gathered in Hanoi, Vietnam and the 1st BOJ (EM) was
held in September 2006 and approved the basic plan of the “Award System for Energy
Management”. In October 2006, the award system was commenced. Based on the progress
mentioned above, the 2nd Research Forum in Japan was situated as a meeting equivalent to
BOJ targeting to further specify and clarify the evaluation guideline and to improve theapplication form. In order to achieve these targets, the 2nd Research Forum in Japan wasplanned and implemented the following programs.
(1) Lecture of the award systems for energy conservation realized in Japan(2) Case study to experience evaluation using the excellent cases actually awarded in Japan(3) Exchange of opinions and deepening understanding on energy management practicethrough visit to factory including discussion with engineers in the factory(4) Exchange of opinions with the committee members of BOJ of the award system in Japan(5) Preparation of output in the workshop based on the activities in the programs (1) through(4) mentioned above
2. Specific Program of the 2nd Research Forum in Japan
The program of the 2nd Research Forum is shown in Attachment IV-2-2-2. The program was
implemented as follows.
♣1 Introduction and Keynote Lecture♣2 Presentation“Award Systems Implemented in Japan”, especially, “Award System of Excellent Cases
for Energy Conservation”♣3 Case study
Simulated evaluation in accordance with the previous evaluation guideline for ASEAN
using 2 excellent cases awarded in Japan in FY 2005
♣4 Opinion Exchange (1)Visit to Keiyo Factory of Kubota and opinion exchange on energy management practicewith engineers in the factory♣5 Opinion Exchange (2)Opinion exchange on the award system with Japanese committee members of the BOJ
for the “Award System of Excellent Cases for Energy Conservation” including Japaneseadvisors for the ASEAN “Award System for Energy Management”♣6 Workshop (by the ASEAN BOJ (EM) members) on the Following(1) Refining the evaluation guideline(2) Improvement in the application form
(3) Confirmation of the future schedule
3. Outcomes of the 2nd Research Forum in JapanThe evaluation guideline of the “Award System for Energy Management” was assessed andrefined, hence the application form was improved reflecting the refined evaluation guideline.
In addition, the future schedule was confirmed. Therefore, the target of the 2nd Research
Forum in Japan was achieved.
These improvements were made based both on the better understanding on the Japanese way
and the difference in situations between the Japanese and the ASEAN’s through the lecture,case study and opinion exchange with the concerned persons including the BOJ members for
the Japanese award system and on the advices made by the concerned Japanese persons. This
IV-3

time it was very fruitful and effective for the ASEAN participants to get right and appropriate
answers including advices to their questions and comments by the following Japanesecommittee members of the “Award System of Excellent Cases for Energy Conservation”
based on the 31-year of experiences of operating the award system and evaluating many
excellent cases.
- Dr. Kadoguchi (Chairperson, BOJ of the “Award System of Excellent Cases for E.C.)- Mr. Akira Ishihara (Member, BOJ of the “Award System of Excellent Cases for E.C.)- Mr. Akira Kobayashi (Member, BOJ of the “Award System of Excellent Cases for E.C.)
Moreover, according to the ASEAN participants, it was also very beneficial for them to obtainspecific advices through the experience as follows.
(1) Observation of the actual and very specific energy management practices at Kubota
Keiyo Factory awarded as an excellent energy management practicing factory(2) Joint experience with Japanese advisors in evaluating excellent cases awarded in the“Award System of Excellent Cases for Energy Conservation” using the ASEAN
evaluation guideline
Finally, the forum is actually equivalent to a BOJ (EM) meeting because this forum wasconcluded by the workshop where the ASEAN participants actively discussed from various
viewpoints among them, under their management. As a result, the evaluation guideline andthe application form were improved, as shown in Attachment IV-2-2-3 and Attachment
IV-2-2-4. The discussion was made in the manner that the participants confirmed / shared thedefinition of each item and deepened their understanding item by item, which resulted inrevising some evaluation items in terms of wording and score distribution with maintaining
basic framework agreed in the 1st BOJ (EM) in Hanoi in September 2006.
Regarding the evaluation guideline, the following are the revised point.
(1) Evaluation items simplified but more specifically defined(2) Score distribution weighed more on the “Impact” and “sustainability” of improvements(30% each)(3) Score distribution weighed less on the “Replicability” or a potential of dissemination
While the above revisions are very rational, in our opinion, some should be further tuned forbetter improvement in the future.
Based on the above revision of the evaluation guideline, the application form was improved
with minor revisions in final though there were various discussions.
The above results shall be respected because of the decision by the ASEAN BOJ (EM)members. Accordingly, some proposal by some BOJ (EM) members if they need any
revisions in the future in the future and the Japanese advisors (Mr. Yoshida and Mr. Ogawaetc.) should properly advise them so that they can recognize points for improvement
specifically.
As for the schedule, the ASEAN members decided to coordinate to hold the BOJ (EM) to
determine the winners on 5th and 6th June, 2007.
The results of the 2nd Research Forum in Japan concluded and confirmed that the present
forum included excellent programs and the participants especially of the ASEAN BOJ (EM)
could obtain very fruitful and effective output through implementing activities in accordancewith the programs.

Preparation of the System to Utilize the Existing Implementing Organizations

IV-3-1 Proposed Basic Plan
The purpose of the system is to provide the function for enterprises in the ASEAN to utilize
the existing implementing organizations in ASEAN and to get services of energy audit andtraining. Namely, the function will work so that ASEAN customers can get specific services ifthey wish from their preferable implementing organizations existing in the ASEAN region.
More specifically, the so called “Cyber Search System” is planned for the system to utilize theexisting implementing organizations. In the system, the implementing organizations andcustomers register the respective information and this system searches the implementing
organizations and customers of which requests and conditions for services meet each other.
Namely, the implementing organizations open the items of services with conditions wishing toprovide. On the other hand, customers wishing to get services also register the specifications
and conditions to purchase wished services. The “ASEAN Energy Management System” will
include the cyber search system to utilize the existing implementing organizations as the place
for the implementing organizations and customers to register the respective information.
Actually, this place will be prepared on the ACE website so that the implementing
organizations can register services the wish to provide and customers can also register
specifications and purchase conditions of their wished services for appropriate implementing
organizations. This system to utilize the existing implementing organizations compares the
specifications and conditions required by the both stakeholders and find the implementing
organizations and customers whose requests and conditions meet each other within certain
ranges.
The role and scope of this system is to finally provide these stakeholders with information on
suitable partners for services of energy audit and training. After receiving information fromthe system, customers will directly discuss and negotiate with the implementing
organization(s) recommended by the system.
The basic concept of the cyber search system to utilize the existing implementing
organizations is shown in Fig. IV-3-1-1.

The information required for the existing implementing organizations and customers toresister is shown in Table IV 3-1-1 and Table IV 3-1-2.

IV-3-2 Status of Preparation of the System
In the Intensive Seminar-Workshop held in 7 countries, the ECCJ team introduced the basic
concept of the cyber search system to utilize the existing implementing organizations, andasked for opinion and comments of the participants. As a result, the proposed concept of thissystem was accepted by almost all the participants, and they requested to prepare and startworking this system as early as possible. This point was also reported and confirmed by the
focal points from the ASEAN 10 countries in the Summary and Post.
As of the end of March 2007, ECCJ experts have already prepared the basic form in which all
the required information should be fulfilled by the implementing organizations and customers.
Based on the form prepared by ECCJ, ACE has been developing the design of the cybersearch system to utilize the implementing organizations to be uploaded on the ACE website.
It would be possible to start its trial operation in the early stage of the next fiscal year.

Development of Tools for Energy Management

IV-4-1 Proposed Basic Plan
Another important function of the “ASEAN Energy Management System” is to provide someeffective tools for energy management. Relating to the activities under the PROMEEC (Major
Industries and Buildings), the database for in-house use (“In-house Database”) and Technical
Directories are being prepared, in addition, the “Energy Management Handbook” is also
under development, as the activities to develop the tools for energy management.

IV-4-2Development of Basic Design of and the System for Dissemination of In-house
Database for Major Industries and Buildings
For the purpose of effectively utilizing for energy management in factories and buildings,
some standardized data files are prepared and uploaded on the website so that concerned
staffs in factories and buildings can download the data files to utilize in their factories.
The standardized data files have been developed under the PROMEEC (Major Industries andBuildings). Basically, these standard data files will be prepared based on the questionnaire
prepared by ECCJ and used for energy audits in factories and buildings in the past. Fig.
IV-4-2-1 shows the basic concept of the system to utilize the standardized data files for thecustomers’ In-house Database.
The standardized data files will consider the required factors as follows.
(1) Data required for energy management(2) Standard form for data compiling and standard indices for energy management.
(3) Standardized and typical data processing and diagrams for monitoring and management(4) Effective analyses to find out improvement measure such as statistical and process
analysesMoreover, the standardized database will require a good design to find out effective
improvement. In order to conduct a deep analyses, therefore, in case of databases forbuildings the data should be arranged equipment by equipment, and in case of databases for
major industries the data should be arranged process by process so that the relation of energy
use between the equipment or process can be also identified. The concept of the basic design
and management of database is shown in Fig. IV-4-2-2.
Based on the consideration mentioned above, the databases for major industries and buildings
have been in process of development and preparation under the PROMEEC (Major Industries
and Buildings).
The database for buildings is completed and currently under improvement for the actual usage.
On the other hand, the databases for major industries will be prepared under the basic plan todevelop databases for the respective sub-industries and to be completed within 2 years.

Preparation of System for Dissemination of Technical Directories for Major
Industries and Buildings
The “Technical Directory” aims at collecting effective technologies for energy conservation
including specific cases to apply these technologies, and at being disseminated in the ASEAN
region. The system to realize the above purposes will be established. The effective
technologies for energy conservation will be actually collected in the PROMEEC (Major
Industries) and PROMEEC (Buildings) projects and the system to disseminate the “Technical
Directory” will be established and worked in the PROMEEC (Energy Management) project.
The details of the “Technical Directory” are described in the reports of the PROMEEC (Major
Industries and Building) projects, this report does not describe the details. The basic structureof the “Technical Directory” is considered to be user-friendly and easy to update and expand
the contents. The following are the basic contents of the “Technical Directory”.
►Part – 1 : Overview of Technologies
This part consists of summary of effective technologies and effects for buildings andindustrial sub-sectors for industries. This summary eases searching by readers.
►Part – 2 : Details of Technologies
This part describes the details of features of mechanism to achieve energy conservation andtypical effects of the individual technologies. The descriptions are based upon theinformation and data possible to publish. For some items, this part setup accesses such as
names of makers including information including information on industrial properties tocontact suppliers for more information.
►Part – 3 : Excellent Cases for Each Technology
By choosing some successful cases, specific excellent cases for each technology applied areprepared for reader to easily understand how to apply each technology in a factory or abuilding. Specifically, it would be realistic to apply cases actually realized in the
PROMEEC (Major Industries and Buildings) projects based on the results of energy audits
in factories and buildings.
The Technical Directory could be disseminated through accessing to the ACE or ECCJ
website and/or introducing it in the seminars conducted under the 3 PROMEEC projects.

IV-4-4 Development of Energy Management Handbook
The Energy Management Handbook has been developed and prepared as a tool to provide
guidelines for voluntary activities for energy conservation in factories and buildings. The draft
was prepared in FY 2006. The development of this handbook is based on the basic policy toutilize the Total Energy Management (TEM) Handbook developed in Thailand under thecooperation between Thai and Japanese government through METI. In Thailand, the effects of
the TEM Handbook have been already proven in Thailand. The essence of the Energy
Management Handbook is to provide users with guidelines to apply the principles of the small
group activities, the Total Quality Management (TQM) and the Total Productivity
Maintenance (TPM) for the activities to promote energy conservation.
In case of Thailand, the cultures of Japanese enterprises and business custom are well known
because many Japanese enterprises established business, and business activities with Japaneseare very active. Therefore, the environment to utilize the TEM Handbook was established.
However, the situations in ASEAN are not necessarily similar to the Thai and there would bemany countries where business is based on those by European or American enterprises or on
the local business without knowing the culture and environment of the Japanese enterprises.
When the Energy Management Hand book is developed, these points should be considered.
IV-26

The main contents of the Energy Management Handbook consist of the following.
►Part – 1 : Purposes and Usage of Energy Management Handbook►Part – 2 : Total Energy Management "by Participation" with Key Step Approach►Part – 3 : Implementation of Energy Conservation Projects
Appendix – 1
Successful Examples of Energy Conservation by Small Group Activities in ASEAN countries(Samples of Winners for “ASEAN Award System of Best Practices in Energy Management for
Industries and Buildings”)

Appendix – 2
Related Information
The important parts of this handbook are Part-2 and Part-3 where the guidelines of activities
based on the experience of having practiced the small group activities and TPM/TQM aregiven. Accordingly, the important points to develop this handbook are as follows.
(1) To be user-friendly(2) To be flexible for updating and expanding(3) More practical than technicalIn addition, in order to maximize the achievements of the PROMEEC projects, the cases
awarded by the “ASEAN Award System of Best Practices in Energy Management for
Industries and Buildings” will be selected for the cases in ANNEX-1. Furthermore, thishandbook will also provide guidelines to effectively utilize the “In-house Database” and“Technical Directory” in Part-2.
It will be necessary to aim at realizing improvement possible to utilize in the ASEAN
countries with different situations between the countries. So it is required to include activities
to revise the specific draft and complete it as the handbook in the plan. Basically, it will be
realistic and rational to finalize the handbook reflecting opinions and comments from users
through the introductory use of the Energy Management Handbook in factories and buildings.

Results of Discussion in the Summary and Post Workshops
Inviting the focal points from the ASEAN countries, the “Summary and Post Workshop” washeld on 27th and 28th February, 2007 in Brunei Darussalam for the purpose of sharing
information by the ASEAN 10 countries through confirming and evaluating the results ofactivities for the PROMEEC 3 projects and discussing the future plan. In the “Summary
Workshop”, the participants discussed the PROMEEC (Energy Management) project. The
program of the “Summary Workshop” is shown in Attachment V-1.

V-1

Summarized Actual Results and Achievements of Implementation of Projects for2006 - 2007
As targeted in the plan of the PROMEEC (Energy Management) project, some importantfunctions of the “ASEAN Energy Management System” started working. The actual results todate shows that the activities have been implemented on the schedule established in 2004
when the PROMEEC (Energy Management) project was established. Based on the actual
results, the direction of improvement to establish the “ASEAN Energy Management System”
has become clearer and the project has been in progress in spite of experiencing somedifficulties.
The followings are the specific achievement in this one year.
(1) Regarding “ASEAN Award System of Best Practices in Energy Management for
Industries and Buildings”, BOJ (EM) was established and ASEAN officially announced
the start of the award system including the 1st application in October 2006 with the target
to collect and disseminate excellent cases for energy management.
(2) The draft of the “Energy Management Handbook” as a tool available for energy
management was prepared.
(3) It was possible to proceed with work to establish the system to disseminate informationand tools including “In-house Database” and “Technical Directory” under preparation in
the PROMEEC (Major Industries and Buildings) projects.
(4) Including the issues above, concerning the functions and programs of the “ASEAN
Energy Management System” for ASEAN stakeholders to utilize, it was possible toidentify and clarify the points possible to further improve and to study.
(5) The Intensive Seminar-Workshop was held and the ECCJ-ASEAN team visited tocompanies / organizations in the 7 countries to introduce the activities of the PROMEEC(Energy Management) project and plan / functions of the “ASEAN Energy Management
System” and to collect opinions and requests. These activities resulted in having madethe above presentations to many ASEAN persons from enterprises and variousorganizations including the 265 seminar-workshop participants and in having exchanged
and obtained opinions and requests from them.
As a conclusion, it was confirmed that the functions and programs of the “ASEAN
Energy Management System” including those under planning would meet the actual
needs of concerned persons in factories and buildings in the ASEAN countries.
(6) Through the activities in each country, it was possible to expand the networks among
enterprises, various organizations and concerned persons. These networks will be thebasis to activate participation in the activities and disseminate achievements of the
PROMEEC projects in the future.
(7) In the activities of Item (4), we found the fact that the PROMEEC projects were not wellknown by the ASEAN persons. Accordingly, more enhanced efforts including efforts by
the focal points will be required to let ASEAN persons know the PROMEEC projects
and the activities under the projects.

Proposed Latest Plan of the “ASEAN Energy Management System” Based on the
Actual Implementation Results
Reflecting the actual results of activities and discussions in each country, the plan of the“ASEAN Energy Management System” was revised. Basically, while the plan is based on that
established in 2005, further improvement in functions was proposed and agreed by the focal
points. The important revisions mainly consist of two parts, namely the improvement ofprograms and functions already under work or under development and the additional new
programs and functions proposed to develop and establish in the future.

1. Improvement of programs and functions already under work or under development
The following are the points of revision. As the detailed specifics of the respective plans are
explained in Chapter IV, the detailed are not described here.
(1) System to collect and disseminate excellent cases for energy management
It is a great progress that the “ASEAN Award System of Best Practices in Energy
Management for Industries and Buildings” including the 1st application has started.
Further improvements will be required to make the program and function of this system
more effective in the future, working the system. Especially, the evaluation guideline
should be improved further so that the award system for energy management can collectcases with a higher possibility to disseminate and implement effectively. Specifically, thepreferred cases should satisfy the following conditions.
1) Improvement applicable for both factories and buildings
2) Improvement with little cost and investment (STEP-1 improvement with no / low cost)3) Improvement to activate and sustain the activities of Item 2)
In the 2nd Research Forum in Japan, BOJ (EM) members exchanged opinions regarding
the above points. However, it will be necessary to check the above points assessing thecases actually awarded in the award system.
(2) Establishment of basic tools for energy management
As it is very effective to use the Energy Management Handbook drafted together with the
preparing “In-house Database” and “Technical Directory”, these are situated as the“basic 3 tools for energy management”. Therefore, in order to complete and effectively
disseminate these tools, the introductory use in factories and buildings is planned. The
introductory use would be for about 6 months to propose further improvements andassess the actual effects of the tools by the factories and buildings. The proposals andcomments based on their experience can be reflected to finalization of these tools and themore effective plan for dissemination.
(3) Cyber search system to utilize the existing implementing organizations for ASEAN
customers to obtain services of energy audit and training
Since the concept and basic design of the system completed in early 2007, the trial
operation will be started, further improved through the trial operation and the system.
The activities aim at completing the system so that the completed system can start theactual operation until March 2008.
2. Additional new programs and functions proposed to develop and establish in the future
In addition, the new functions and programs were proposed as follows. After FY 2007, thefollowing will be studied and developed.
(1) Development and introduction of new tools
It will be beneficial to introduce the “Thermal Energy Efficiency Improvement (TEEI)
Handbook” developed and “Electrical Energy Efficiency Improvement (EEEI)
Handbook” developing in Thailand through the cooperation under Green Partnership
V-4

Program (GPP) policy dialogue between Thailand and Japan, for the purpose of utilizingthese handbooks in the ASEAN region.
(2) Preparation of directory of companies related to energy conservation business
It was to prepare a directory introducing companies and contact persons who supply
technologies and equipment for energy conservation.
The directory will be the “e-Directory” utilized by accessing the ACE website. In the
PROMEEC (Energy Management) project, after completing basic design, theinformation firstly collected with cooperation by the focal points will be uploaded andthe “e-Directory” will be available for the actual use. The system will be of theself-updating type by registering and uploading by enterprises which wish their businessfor energy conservation in ASEAN on a voluntary basis.
(3) Improvement
The functions of “One Stop Service” and advisory service will be added to establish theuser-friendly “ASEAN Energy Management System”.
(3)-1 Function of “One Stop Service”
In case that users do not find wishing accesses, the system will be more user-friendly by
setting up the “One Stop Service” which will automatically guide users to findappropriate accesses. This improvement will be easy and able to be soon realized.
(3)-2 Function of advisory service
This function targets to provide users with advices by experts in case that the “One Stop
Service” cannot handle the requests from users. In this case, the issue is that the system
will need experts. In order to solve this problem, it is proposed to ask some experts fortheir cooperation and to prepare the following accesses so that users and the experts cancontact.
♦ Procedure for users to directly access to the registered experts by indicating an area ora category for consultation♦ Procedure for users to contact a receptionist who provide users with advices given by
the registered experts
We would like to further continue studying to find better procedures by collecting ideas
and opinions from ASEAN stakeholders through the activities in the future.
The updated concept of the “ASEAN Energy Management System” is shown in Fig. V-2-1,
based on the improved plan mentioned above.

V-3

Plan of the ASEAN Award System of Best Practices in Energy Management for
Industries and Buildings

Basic Policy on the Future Activities and Proposed Basic Implementation Plan for2007 - 2008
4 years have passed since the PROMEEC (Energy Management) project started. According to
the plan to establish the “ASEAN Energy Management System”, the fiscal year of 2007 is theimportant year when almost of all the functions will be prepared and start working.
Actually, the following specific activities will be continued or newly implemented inaccordance with plan explained in Section V-2
1. Smooth operation of the “ASEAN Award System of Best Practices in Energy Management
for Industries and Buildings(1) Related activities between the focal points and the BOJ (EM) members(2) Improvement in the evaluation guideline etc.
(3) Establishment of the system to disseminate the excellent cases
2. Preparation of “Energy Management Handbook” and verification of effect through theintroductory use combined with the “Technical Directory” and “In-house Database” atcooperative factories and buildings
3. Refining and development of “Technical Directory” and “In-house Database”
4. Establishment and start of trial operation of the cyber search system to utilize the existing
implementing organizations
5. Dissemination of programs mentioned above through the Intensive Seminar-Workshop andvisits to enterprises / organizations and expansion of networks with cooperative enterprises/ organizations(1) Intensive Seminar-Workshop and visits to factories and buildings at 6 countries

ENERGY MANAGEMENT HANDBOOK for ASEAN
New Approach to Energy Conservation in ASEAN countries

February 27th and 28th, 2007

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXASEAN Centre for Energy (ACE)andThe Energy Conservation Center, Japan2

Preface
This handbook was developed based on the TEM (Total Energy Management) Handbook which
was successfully prepared first in Thailand through by the policy dialog between Thaigovernment and Japanese government to support and supplement Energy Conservation projects
carried out by Thai government.
The TEM Handbook, after the completion, was actually subjected to introductory use in 10
factories in Thailand in 2005, and proved its usefulness by the excellent results of energy saving
corresponding to about 45.6 million Thai Bahts (about US$ XXX) only in about 7 months. The
results are summarized in the Table at the end of this section.
This TEM Handbook was then applied to the need of other ASEAN countries. In other words,
the ASEAN TEM Handbook was developed by modifying the said Thai Handbook to meet therequirements of Energy Conservation in those countries.
This Handbook has been provided to be utilized by all people concerned with energy
conservation in all the industries in ASEAN countries “from Top to Bottom”. In addition, theconcept of Total Productivity Management (TPM), Total Quality Management (TQM) andSmall Group Activities are incorporated into the TEM Handbook to facilitate to enhance energy
efficiency.

Acknowledgement
All the ASEAN Countries acknowledges with thanks the valuable supports technical andfinancial by Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry of Japan through The Energy
Conservation Center, Japan to develop and complete “Energy Management Handbook for
ASEAN”.

Purposes and Background of Energy Management Handbook

8Chapter 1 Introduction
Energy is one of the most important resources to sustain our lives. At present we still
depend a lot on fossil fuels and other kinds of non-renewable energy. The extensive useof renewable energy including solar energy needs more time for technology development.
In this situation Energy Conservation (EC) is the critical needs in any countries in theworld.
Of special importance of Energy Conservation are the following two aspects:(1) Economic factors(2) Environmental impacts
1.1

Economic factors of Energy Conservation
Energy saving is important and effective at all levels of human organizations – in thewhole world, as a nation, as companies or individuals. Energy Conservation reduces theenergy costs and improves the profitability.
In ASEAN countries, though the situation is a little different from nation to nation, theefforts of Energy Conservation have been continued for decades. Some countries
already have legal enforcement like the Energy Conservation Promotion Act. Some others
are planning that or preparing for that. For both the oil-exporting countries and theoil-importing countries, the nation-wide Energy Conservation efforts will contribute tolessening dependence on scarce resources such as crude oils and establishing the morefavorable budget balance of the country.
Private companies are also sensitive to energy costs, which directly affects theirprofitability and even their viability in many cases. Especially factories in the industrial
sectors are of much concern, because reduced costs by Energy Conservation mean the
more competitive product prices in the world markets.

1.2

Environmental impacts of Energy Conservation
Energy Conservation is closely related also to the environmental issues. The problem ofglobal warming or climate change is caused by emission of carbon dioxide and otherGreen House Gases (GHG). Energy Conservation, especially saving use of fossil fuels,
shall be the first among the various countermeasures of the problem, with due
considerations of the aforementioned economic factors.
To cope with the said problem, there have been many global or international cooperation
activities. One of those is IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change), started
in November 1988.
There have been also the efforts in the shape of UNFCCC Kyoto Protocol, where a lot ofcountries in the world are working together in the same direction of reducing GHG

9emission. Moreover, encouraged by introduction of “flexible mechanism” many
international cooperation projects are developed between private sector entities of Annex
1 countries (Japan) and non-Annex countries (developing countries or those in transition)in the Asia-Pacific region. (Related articles in the Kyoto Protocol refer to “Activities
Implemented Jointly”, “Emissions Trading among Annex 1 Parties” and “Clean
Development Mechanism”.)

10Chapter 2 Purposes of Energy Management Handbook
The current Energy Management Handbook was originally a product of a project initiatedby the GAP (Green Aid Plan) policy dialog between Thai government and Japanese
government, and now that is expanded to application to all ASEAN countries. The project
was meant to support and supplement many projects for EC promotion carried out by thegovernments of ASEAN countries. More specifically, the Handbook is characterized by thefollowing purposes:(1) Main Users
The main users of the Handbook would be the energy managers or the key persons insimilar positions who plan to promote EC inside the factories. Additionally all thepeople within factories from top management to workers/operators could be proper
users to realize Energy Conservation by all members’ contribution.
(2) EC by PARTICIPATIONThe Handbook will be a very effective tool to be utilized in industrial factories basedon the sprit of the teamwork, or “EC by Participation”.
(3) Special and Unique Features
The Handbook was planned and designed in such a special way as is described later,and so it has very special and unique features. Those features are explained in thetwo categories – Comprehensive and Specific. The latter means utilization of SGA(Small Group Activities) in a broad sense – ESGA (Effective Small Group Activities).
2.1

Comprehensive Features
To achieve the above-said purposes, there was close cooperation among ACE, therepresentatives of ASEAN countries and Japanese experts from ECCJ. As a result, theHandbook has the following features:(1) First book in the world
This kind of “Handbook for Energy Conservation” does not exist yet either in Japanor in any other countries in the world. It was first prepared in Thailand andfollowed by ASEAN countries under the cooperation by Japan through ECCJ.
(2) Management issues – not technical issues
The Handbook is different from the existing or planned manuals in ASEAN
countries. The manuals in most cases deal with technical issues related tomachinery and facilities, while the Handbook deals with management issues related
to people. In other words, the Handbook shows how to use manuals and motivate
people to work together for Energy Conservation.

11

(3) How to motivate people
Accordingly the Handbook puts stress on such items as Motivation Techniques, EC
Attitudes and SGA (Small Group Activities) including TQM/TPM, all contributing
to “EC by PARTICIPATION (of all the people working together)”.
Of these elements, utilization of SGA (including TQM/TPM) forms the very special
features of the Handbook, and it is explained in more details in 1.2.2.
(4) User-friendly
The Handbook is so designed that the users read it and learn how to work on Energy
Conservation program for industrial factories. Namely the book shows the way tocarry on Energy Conservation activities. The book is very unique in that it is madein the “user-friendly” way. It was planned and designed, originally in Thailand, by
the users, including not only engineers in industrial factories but also managementlevel people, involved in the project from the very beginning stage. Thus thecontents of the book were carefully arranged to assure convenience of the users.
(5) Comprehensive
At the same time, the Handbook is a very comprehensive one, with a lot of related
useful information put into the Appendix part, so that the users would easily findwhat they want somewhere in the book.
(6) Expandable
The Handbook is made in an “expandable” manner for refinement and addition in
the future. After actual use of the book in many factories in ASEAN countries fromnow, the feedback would be utilized to revise, update and expand the book.
Especially putting successful examples of using the book into some part of the
Handbook with a category by industry would make the book much more useful inthe future.
(7) Provides the self-sustainable way
Accordingly the Handbook will be utilized within industrial factories in aself-sustainable way so that private sector people probably would be able to continue
EC activities even without the help of outside consultants.
2.2

Specific Features – ESGA (Effective Small Group Activities)
As mentioned previously, utilization of Small Group Activities (SGA) is one of thespecial features of the Handbook. Japanese industrial sector has developed andimproved a lot of techniques and methodology in the field of SGA, including TQM and
TPM, in the past few decades with successful results. In the original project of12

preparing the TEM Handbook in Thailand, two Japanese TQM/TPM experts took partand had long discussion with other committee members on how to utilize the essence of
those SGA in Energy Conservation promotion.
The conclusion is, as explained below, introduction of the new concept of ESGA
(Effective Small Group Activities). Now the special feature of the TEM Handbook is“utilization of ESGA for Energy Conservation”.
(1) SGA in a broad sense and in a narrow sense
There are many tools, methods and techniques in the field of SGA in a broad sense.
TQM and TPM would be the two famous examples. SGA in a narrow sense might
include such methods as Employee Suggestion System, ZD (Zero Defects)
movement, 5S (Seiri: Order, Seiton: Arrangement, Seisou: Cleaning, Seiketsu:
Cleanliness and Shitsuke: Discipline) activities, KAIZEN (Improvement) activities,
and so on. All the good points of the SGA in a broad sense (i.e. TQM, TPM andthe SGA in a narrow sense) were intended to be utilized in the TEM Handbook forthe purpose of Energy Conservation promotion.
(2) Essence of SGA
It would not be useful to put all these methods and techniques, as they are, into the
Handbook, because it requires a voluminous part of the book and also it confuses theusers who would ask themselves which method to adopt for Energy Conservation
promotion activities. It was therefore desired for the Japanese experts to digest all
the good points of the said SGA in a broad sense and put only the essence (corenutrition) into the Handbook for the ready use in Energy Conservation activities.
(3) TQM and TPM
TQM and TPM have a separate long history each, starting from the different field,
respectively the quality and maintenance. However the both methods continued
development to cover wider fields and now deal with the extensive fields oforganizational activities, with a lot of overlapping each other. At present both
TQM and TPM aim at solving management issues, and can be used and applied in
the various fields of company activities – manufacturing, maintenance, sales,
administration, etc.
(4) New concept of ESGAThe essence of TQM, TPM and SGA (in a narrow sense) is expressed by a newconcept called ESGA (Effective Small Group Activities). ESGA contains theexcellent and substantial points extracted from all these methods/techniques and canbe applied effectively to Energy Conservation activities as well as many other fieldsof business activities. ESGA is based on integration of the power of all themembers of organizations through their PARTICIPATION for a project or thecommon goal (such as Energy Conservation).

Chapter 3 Usage of Energy Management Handbook
3.1

Users of Energy Management Handbook
The Handbook is meant for use in factories in the industrial sector in ASEAN countries.
The following class (category) of people may be considered as users of the Handbook:(1) Factory Manager (Senior Management)(2) Middle managers(3) PREs, equivalent engineers or Energy Managers to promote EC(4) Other staff/engineers(5) Workers/operators
Of these, the Handbook is primarily supposed to be used by PRE (Person Responsible forEnergy)s or Energy Managers. New types of PREs appeared in Thailand after
completion of the new training center in the suburbs of Bangkok through PEMTC(Practical Energy Management Training Center) project jointly implemented by Japaneseand Thai governments, with the new qualification system and the training with themini-plants and new textbooks. Then they found the TEM Handbook a very useful tool
to actually promote EC activities within the factories.
The Handbook is also useful for other class of people. They get deeper understanding of
the issue of EC and how to promote it within factories so that all the people from thesenior management down to workers/operators, including PREs, can work together in thesame direction – EC promotion. The same thing goes in other ASEAN countries, too.

3.2

Contents of Energy Management Handbook
The contents of the Handbook are designed for convenient use. After Part I, Purposes
and background of Total Energy Management Handbook, comes Part II, which shows
Total Energy Management “by Participation” with Key Step Approach. Then Part III
contains the way of Implementation of Energy Conservation Project. Appendix-1 and -2,
respectively, show Successful Examples and useful related information.

3.3

Future shape after Expansion
Since the Handbook is designed to be expandable, addition of many successful examples,
to be gathered from all over ASEAN countries, will accumulate in the book in future.
Those examples will be arranged by category of industry, such as iron & foundry,
chemical, food, textile, etc. Then future users would first look for reference examples in
the industry to which they belong, and have good chances to find ones.

14Part II

Total Energy Management "by Participation" with Key Step Approach

As said in the previous Part, strategic planning of the Energy Management is very important for15

the management of factories/companies, and Energy Conservation is one of its major topics.
In the Handbook, stress is put on introduction of the way of promoting Energy Conservation by
participation of all the members within factories, i.e. “Energy Conservation by Participation”.
That is explained in more details in Part II, with the “Key Step Approach, which is meant foreasy and convenient access by the users.

16

Chapter 1 Key Step Approach for Energy Management
1.1

Energy Management Principles
Energy Conservation is an important issue for the corporate management, and isconsidered to form a part of Energy Management.
(1) Definition of Energy Management
Energy is one of the management resources of a company, and shall be managed andcontrolled by a systematic method in harmony with the management of otherresources. Energy Management is managing all kinds of energy used in thecompany by making out an optimum program of purchasing, generating andconsuming various types of energy based on the company’s overall short-term andlong-term management program, with due consideration of costs, availability,
economic factors, and so on.
(2) Necessity of Energy Management
Energy Management is necessarily required because it influences a number of
aspects of company operation and activities including the following:- energy costs which affect the company profitability- energy costs which affect the competitiveness in the world market- national energy supply/demand balance- national trade and financial balance- local and global environments- occupational safety and health- loss prevention and waste disposal reduction- productivity- quality

1.2

Strategic Approach for Energy Management (Key Step Approach)Nowadays all the corporate decision making and action taking shall be carried out on thebasis of Strategic Approach. Otherwise the decision or action may not be effective
enough from the overall viewpoints or under the rapidly changing circumstances, andsoon the company would find itself in an uncertain situation of its viability. Energy
Management is no exception.

In this section, Strategic Energy Management is explained in the form of “the Key Step
Approach” to serve as a quick reference for the users to grasp its essence and take actions
without delay. More detailed explanation of the Key Step Approach is given in Part III. It
consists of the following key steps:(1) Top management commitment

17

(2) Assignment of PRE (or Energy Manager)(3) Understanding the issues including- Grasp current energy use- Identify management strength and weakness- Analyze stakeholder needs- Anticipate barriers to implement- Estimate the future trend(4) Plan and organization including- Develop a policy statement- Set targets- Make out a plan/program- Establish organization (utilization of ESGA)(5) Implementation(6) Controlling and monitoring the performance(7) Management review(8) Standardization and Dissemination
Each step will be explained in this order as below:(1) Top Management Commitment
It is the most important for the success of Energy Conservation activities withincompanies or factories to have clear and official commitment of top management –either the corporate top (senior) management or factory managers. The top (senior)management shall announce explicit commitment to the Energy Management (orEnergy Conservation) and behave along this line – for example, participate in EC(Energy Conservation) events and encourage the people there for EC promotion.
This Handbook is primarily meant for Energy Managers for the use of EC promotion
within factories, on the assumption that top management has already committed tothat. However, there may be cases where top management would learn about
Energy Management (or Energy Conservation) by this Handbook, or Energy
Managers would make efforts to persuade top management to support or commit to
Energy Management (or Energy Conservation) with the help of this Handbook.
(2) Assignment of Energy Manager
In some countries, where the EC Promotion Act is in force, the designated factories
have obligation of assigning PREs. In case of Thailand, a new training center wasconstructed to support the new system of assigning and training Energy Managers
under the law.
In relation to Energy Management, however, the word “Energy Managers” is here
used as a Manager or a Coordinator, separate from the above-said legal obligation,
who works exclusively for Energy Management (or Energy Conservation) purposes,
ranging from gathering energy-related information to drafting EC plans/programs
and promoting or coordinating during implementation. To the proper Energy

18

Management, this type of PRE is indispensable. How to position this PRE within
the company organization is also an important issue and needs careful decision. In
some cases, Energy Committee, with members from the major departments, may beformed to assure the company-wide or factory-wide cooperation. This issue will be
explained in Part II, Chapter 3, Organization and Structure.
(3) Understanding the issues
Before trying to make out any future programs or action plans, it is essential for thecompany or factory management to understand the current situation in a proper andaccurate manner. This includes not only the status of their own operation but also
other relevant information such as competitors’ operation, circumstances around thecompany and their trend in future, positioning the company itself in the local andglobal markets, and so on.
The key steps for this purpose are shown below:

c Grasp Current Energy Use
The current data of energy consumption shall be obtained by measurement,
calculation or estimation for the individual operation units (energy cost centers)with classification of kinds of energy (fuels types, utility types, etc.). The data
shall be gathered regularly and arranged/summarized daily, weekly, monthly, by
seasons or annually. Then the data shall be checked for the past historical trend
and interpreted with relation to operational modes and production scales. Thatshall also be utilized for the forecast of future trends. More details of the data
gathering are explained in Part III, Implementation Steps of Energy
Conservation.

d Identify Management Strength and Weakness
Then the data shall be compared with the best practice data or benchmarks in theindustry. If such reference data are hardly available, the historical data of theirown operation and estimated data for the competitors would be utilized for thispurpose. At the same time, the strength and the weakness of the company shallbe evaluated considering the competitors’ situations in the local and global
markets. This would serve the purpose of making out a realistic Energy
Management plan later.
e Analyze stakeholder needs
Stakeholders are top (and senior) management, middle managers, staff/engineers
and workers/operators. Other stakeholders in the normal sense, such as theshareholders and lenders, need not be included here. The needs and intention of
those stakeholders shall be summarized and taken into consideration.

f Anticipate barriers to implement
Making out a realistic and practical program also needs consideration of19

anticipated barriers for the implementation of Energy Management program or
action plan. Some possible examples of such barriers are:- Insufficient understanding and support by top management- Insufficient understanding and cooperation of managers within factories- Insufficient awareness of people to get successful results- Insufficient capability of people due to lack of training- Insufficient available technology due to lack of information- Insufficient availability of manpower for EC activities within factories- Insufficient budget for EC activities due to the company’s financial status

g Estimate the future trend
The future trend of energy supply-demand balance is estimated based on
checking and analysis of the historical data. That data of future trend would
also be a basis of the program of good Energy Management.
(4) Plan and Organization
Based on the aforesaid understanding of the current status and position of thecompany, with the strength/weakness analysis and other relevant information, thefollowing steps are taken to get a good Energy Management (or Energy
Conservation) plan/program.

c Develop a policy statement
It is desired that the top (senior) management announces the “Energy Policy
Statement”. This is very effective to let people inside and outside the company
clearly know the management’s commitment to Energy Management (or Energy
Conservation). The format of the energy policy statement is various, but it
usually includes the goal or objective of the company and the more concretetargets in the field of Energy Management (or Energy Conservation). It often
shows the major measures and timetables. The statement shall match thecompany’s mission statement or overall management strategy plan.

d Set targets
The targets shall be concrete and specific so that everyone can understand it.

e Make out a plan/program
The plan/program shall be realistic, practical and attainable with due
consideration of many related elements and management resources of thecompany or factory. It also shall be expressed in terms of the measurable orquantifiable parameters. It usually include a lot of managerial measures ofEnergy Management (or Energy Conservation) promotion activities such as
motivation techniques, means to improve awareness, training, and so on.

20

f Establish organization
The organization shall be modified in an appropriate manner to attain theobjective by using a PRE, a committee, or other organizational means. (Theissue of organization would be explained in more details in Part II, Chapter 3.)(5) Implementation
The organizational force established in the said planning step shall be utilized fully
to ensure smooth implementation of the program. PRE and/or the committee shallcontinue working to promote the activities and report to top management on thestatus quo. This issue is explained in more details in Part III, Implementation ofEnergy Conservation Project.
(6) Controlling and Monitoring the Performance
The actual records of implementation shall be closely watched and monitored. Ifsome problems arise, or some variance between the planned figure and the actual
record is observed, then necessary actions shall be taken immediately.
(7) Management Review
After the program is completed, the report shall be submitted to the top (senior)management. The results shall be assessed and analyzed for any good and bad
points. The lesson shall be utilized as a feedback in the subsequent plan/program.
Thus the activities are repeated to form a cyclic movement.
(8) Standardization and Dissemination
The successful results and the lessons learned are to be arranged into the standard
form which can be easily utilized by anyone in the factory. The standardized
documents or information are to be disseminated all over the company.
As mentioned earlier, more details of how to implement each step are explained in thefollowing chapters.

Chapter 2 Policy and Planning
2.1

Planning
Good Planning is a basis and starting point of the “Energy Conservation by Participation”.
The essential elements for the purpose are as follows:- Strategic goals only achieved if driven by day-to-day actions.
- Focusing on action plans starts with developing an energy policy.
- Setting objectives and targets.

21

- Preparing detailed action plans.
- Allocating management resources.
- Utilizing ESGA (Effective Small Group Activities)
2.2

Energy Policy
There are five attributes of a successful energy policy as shown below:(1) Commitment;
Personal message from top management with a commitment with a regular policy
review.
(2) Thrust;A new and challenging dimension to energy and environment.
(3) Applicability;
Directive on which parts of the organization are covered by the policy.
(4) Implementation;
Guidance on how the policy objectives are to be met.
(5) Review;
How an organization knows goals have been achieved.
To make out a good energy policy, the top (or senior) management shall convey his/hercommitment clearly to others and the expected performance standards shall be set out.

22

2.3

Objectives and Targets
The important factors of the objectives and targets are as follows:(1) Setting objectives and targets- Objectives can be almost the same as the policy or may have to be set locally- they express desired outcomes of specific policy commitment.
- Targets detail performance required to meet objectives, often quantitative- must be realistic, meaningful and achievable.
- Benchmarking may be considered at this stage. This issue is explained in Part III,
Chapter 5.
(2) For each part of the organization.
(3) Information from the “Understanding” stage.
- Assess waste reduction targets, costs and returns.
- Build on management strengths, Identify gaps.
- Provide incentives for people at all levels.

2.4

Action Plans
Based on the energy policy and the objectives/targets, actions plans shall be made out,
consisting of the following:(1) Keep the program on track.
(2) Operate at different levels, but all should- Be agreed at appropriate level and “roll up” to the senior manager with overall
responsibility for energy.
- Relate actions to individual objectives and targets.
- Assign actions to specific individuals, with clear deadlines for reporting &completion.
- Indicate who is responsible for singing off.
- Describe the resources available.
- Facilitate budget negotiations and confirm adequate budget provisions have been
made.

(5) Utilize ESGA (Effective Small Group Activities) as much as possible.
(6) Establish monitoring procedures.
2.6

Developing an Effective Energy Policy
An effective Energy Policy is developed using the following documents:(1) Published policy document- Statement policy document- Corporate policy, endorsed by board, specifying goals and objectives.
(2) In- house management documents- Strategic plan outlining what has to be done.
- Management system specifying.
/ Who is responsible for managing energy.
/ Reporting and reviewing mechanism.
/ Who is responsible for implementation.
/ Milestones and targets.

26

Chapter 3 Organization and Structure for Energy Conservation Promotion
To effectively promote Energy Conservation by utilizing ESGA (Effective Small Group
Activities), it is very important to design and make out the organization carefully to meetthe purpose. In practical sense to do that, there may be the following five ways ofestablishing the organization.
(1)
(2)
(3)
(4)
(5)

Use TPM Organization for ENERGY MANAGEMENT purpose
Use TQM Organization for ENERGY MANAGEMENT purpose
Use both TQM and Employee Suggestion System for Energy Conservation purpose
Make special organization supported by Employee Suggestion System
Utilize another organization for the Energy Conservation purpose

Each way listed above is explained briefly below, with some examples actually adopted insome Thai companies
3.1

TPM Organization for TEM purpose
Forming SGA in the framework of TPM is more closely related with the line (or formal )factory organization than the case of TQM. There are opinions that the TPM
organization might be the best form of utilizing SGA for the Energy Conservation
purpose, because the issue of Energy Conservation could be handled as one of the several“pillars” in the TPM system. However, adopting TPM into a factory means actually
putting appreciable amount of manhours into the various work items, and there may besome factories where they find it difficult to introduce TPM method due to lack of
manpower. Such factories may be better to look for another way.
An example of such a “TPM Organization for ENERGY MANAGEMENT purpose” isshown in the following figure and explanation. In this case, “TPM Organization for
ENERGY MANAGEMENT purpose” is expressed as “ENERGY MANAGEMENT
Organization”, and actually “TPM Organization” is adopted and utilized to solve theEnergy Conservation problems as one pillar of several ones.
Example – ENERGY MANAGEMENT Organization (with overlapping small group)(1) Organization Structure
The Organization Structure of ENERGY MANAGEMENT activities should haveoverlapping small groups. And ENERGY MANAGEMENT promotion committees
should be established in all organization levels company wide, that is in the level ofcompany, plant, department, division and section level, including promotion officesof each committee called ENERGY MANAGEMENT promotion office or ENERGYMANAGEMENT office. In each ENERGY MANAGEMENT office will havepermanent responsible persons.

27

The organization structure with overlapping small group (ENERGYMANAGEMENT Circle) will provide efficiency and effectiveness for internal
communication and administration of activities.

(ENERGY MANAGEMENT Circle)(2) Role and responsibility of small group in each organization levelc Role and responsibility of ENERGY MANAGEMENT promotion officea. Ensure the overall ENERGY MANAGEMENT activities of each level are in
the same right directions and not delayed.
b. Promote ENERGY MANAGEMENT activities and make them run smoother.
c. Provide appropriate guidance and methods to continually promote ENERGYMANAGEMENT activities with non-stop.
d. Listen for ideas and suggestions from small groups, consider for improvementof ENERGY MANAGEMENT promotion.
e. Provide appropriate advises in running ENERGY MANAGEMENT activities
for small groups.
f. Maintain good human relation, friendly reaction and service mind.

d Role and responsibility of top management

d. Consider reports from ENERGY MANAGEMENT promotion committees.

e Role and responsibility of middle management
a. Establish ENERGY MANAGEMENT policy and target for responsible
department, division or section in line with the company policy.
b. Establish numerical targets for each ENERGY MANAGEMENT circle bybraking down from company target.
c. Establish topics to be improved and set appropriate members responsible foreach topic.
d. Follow up, advice, recommend and provide help for ENERGYMANAGEMENT circle activities.
e. Periodically report to upper committee the progress, comments andsuggestions of ENERGY MANAGEMENT circle activities.

f Role and responsibility of ENERGY MANAGEMENT circle

Atmosphere

29

3.2

TQM Organization for Energy Conservation purpose
This may also be a popular way of utilizing SGA for the Energy Conservation purpose,for there are a growing number of factories who carry out TQM (or QCC activities).
TQM utilizes SG called “QC circles” (QCC), and the system can tackle problems invarious fields and Energy Conservation can be one of them. Furthermore, TQM may beeasier to introduce than TPM. The basic method can be covered by the subsequent
section which deals with the third way of using the both TQC and Suggestion System, so
please refer to the Section 2.3 for further details.

3.3

Both TQM and Suggestion System for Energy Conservation purpose
A good example of a Thai company factory utilizes both TQM method and Employee
Suggestion System at the same time to solve the Energy Conservation problems. The
both systems have the management policy, the committee, rules for operation/
management, and so on. For details, please refer to the attachment put at the end of thisPart II.

3.4

Energy Conservation Organization and Suggestion System for Energy
Conservation purpose
There have been many factories in Japan where the both (special) Energy Conservation
Organization and Employee Suggestion System are used in parallel. The Energy
Conservation Organization has the following features:(1) Factory Manager clearly announces the Energy Management Policy and commit
himself to Energy Conservation activities.
(2) An Energy Conservation Committee is formed. Chairman of the committee is
Factory Manager. Other members are department managers, and some section
managers such as utility section manager, operation control manager, etc.
(3) secretary of the committee is assigned. In many cases this person is a Energy
Manager (Energy Manager in the Japanese system, a bit different from othercountries).
(4) Under the direction of chairman, the secretary (called EM hereinafter) makes out a
draft of a one-year program including routine and special events.
(5) In February every year, METI (Ministry of Economics, Trade and Industry of Japan)
encourages many factories to hold an event including seminars, commendation
ceremonies, etc. The committee plays an important role on that occasion.

30

Employee Suggestion System is carried out at the same time.
3.5

Utilize other organization for the Energy Conservation purpose
There may be another way, which utilizes an already existing organization for promoting
the Energy Conservation, instead of forming a new organization. An example of suchan organization is Safety Committee, which is obligated by law to form in factories.

Chapter 4 Principles and Methods of Small Group Activities for Energy
Management
4.1

Principles of Small Group Activities (SGA) for Energy Management
One of the features of this Handbook is utilization of SGA (Small Group Activities) forthe purpose of Energy Conservation. This chapter deals with the topic of “Energy
Conservation by Participation of all the members”, or how to utilize SGA (or ESGA as
already explained previously) for the purpose of Energy Conservation.
There have been many management tools proposed and carried out on how to utilize thecapability of all the members within organizations, because the fruits of all the members
working together toward one and the same objective are much bigger than the sum of theindividual fruits of members working separately.
The typical successful methods or techniques in that category of management tools are
TQM and TPM. Other methods or techniques in the category include Employee
Suggestion System, ZD (Zero Defect) movement, KAIZEN, and so on.
As explained in Chapter 2 (Organization Structure for Energy Conservation Promotion),
there are many ways of using these tools, separately or in combination, to promote
Energy Conservation.
In this chapter, principles of forming and utilizing SG (Small Group) are explained
mainly based on the TQM techniques. The purpose of SG activities is expressed in a
general terms, because the technique can be used for various management purposes
including Energy Conservation.
4.1.1
Principles of Energy Conservation promotion by participation by
everyone(1) Management cycle
As shown in below, the management cycle consists of four steps.
• Plan• Do• Check• Act
Until the process achieves its objectives, the cycle is repeatedly rotated while eachstep is observed attentively. Commonly, people say “rotate the management cycle”
or “the PDCA cycle” using its acronym.
The following explains the management cycle in more detail:- Establish the objectives and targets for improvement.
- Determine the process and methods for achieving the objectives.

32

Plan

(Standardization: technical standards, operational standards,
Procedures, guidelines, manuals, etc.)- Predict and prevent troubles beforehand.

Do- Educate and train employees.
- Implement the plans.

Check- Compare the results against the targets.
- When the results fall short, examine the causes.
- Take immediate measures.
- Analyze the process and identify the root causes and developAct- Permanent measures (prevention of recurrence, prevention by
prediction)- Revise the standards.

“Process control” is the name used for the quality control
activity that is carried out by rotating the management
cycle. Process control strives for controlling andimproving work processes and procedures so as to obtain
desirable results.
“Prevention of recurrence” refers to activities that prevent problems from recurring
by analyzing the probable causes of the problems, identifying the root causes, andremoving them. “Prevention by prediction” are activities that predict and prevent
problems before they occur.
A key to both prevention of recurrence and prevention by prediction is to nail down
the root causes of the problems so as to improve the work processes and procedures.
(2) Management by Fact
Small Group activity encourage their members to discuss, think, and judge necessary
matters based on the facts and data. Data refers to the results obtained bymeasuring or observing a fact and comes in various forms such as numerical values,
language data, drawings, and pictures.
Without confirming the facts and collecting data, people often make judgments
based solely on their experience, intuition, and gut feeling. On the other hand, thescientific way of thinking relies on the facts and data. Main points include thefollowing:

33

•

4.1.2

Observe actual items and symptoms on the spot.
Show the observed results in data.
Think about causes and effects while separating the two.
Prioritize.
Pay attention to variability when assessing the situation.
Stratify and analyze data completely.

Planning and implementation of SGA (Small Group Activities)(1) Administration of Small Groups and solving Energy Conservation problems(2) Formation of Small Groups (belonging to the same section, having the samefunctional skill, depending on the individual problems, acting by fixed members, andso on)(3) Definition of functions of each group member(4) Setting the target and the annual program(5) Preparation for Small Group meetings(6) Administration of Small Group meetings(7) Follow-up of Small Group meetings(8) Summarizing lessons from problems tackled by Small Groups(9) Reporting and presentation of the problems solved
4.1.3

Activation of SGA (Attractive Small Group Activity)

Recognition of “Attractive” depends on where he/she stands.
For Leader/member, where they extend their ability is attractive.
On the other hand, Management expect to develop human recourses.
Manager must improve their workplace and make results.
Effective Small Group Activity means the activity that is attractive for all
interested party.
(1) SGA attractive for leaders and members
For Small Group leader/member, attractive Small
Group Activity start from sense of accomplishment
in what way it is. For instance, Some improvement“kaizen” that prove themselves and get recognitionof superior, they will have incentive to challenge
next.
For this, they start to master new Energy Conservation technology and skill.
Attractive Small Group Activity brings out their newly acquired skill, and it brings
glad.

deployed from Organization Policy.
For this, they need to continue improvement andmanagement of their site.
In former years, Managing is the manager’s job, and that
employees are expected to follow the manager’s instructions.
To achieve Energy Conservation mission, the participation of all people concerned-not only managers but also first-line workers- required.

(6) Some problems observed in administration of SGA - Japanese top management***Function of management and managers***
Difference between succeeding company and troubled company expressed widely inJapan.
On the other hand, We know a company has made steady efforts and achieved
V-shaped recovery.
What is the crisis between succeeded case and troubled case?
Top Managements from Some of Japanese Excellent Companies (eg: TOYOTA,HONDA, NISSAN, NEC, DENSO and so on) gathered in HAKONE to discuss the
topics about TQM last December (Dec 2003)
After 2-days Discussion one of Group had presentation about the solution toMannerism in QCC (Small Group Activity) in Japan.
Here are some of answers from experience in Japanese Companies.
– Key factor for Effective Small Group Activity –(1) Top Management’s leadership*The more earnest to develop human resource, themore significant result Small Group Activity
achieve.
*Top Management should ensure that Small Group
Activity is introduced all division.
*Top Management should make clear target of Small
Group Activity eg, human resource development,
vitalization in workplace, contribution to an
Organization’s health.
*For Top Management, Participation to Presentation
meeting is indispensable.
*Communication should carry out to communicate
in workplace.
(2) Connection between Organization’s Policy and Small
Group Activity*Theme deployment to have sense of urgency inOrganization*Positioning Small Group Activities in an
Organization*Results of Small Group Activities should be reflected
to employee evaluation or career path program.

36

(3) Manager’s positive measure*Manager should regard seriously to develop Human
resource.
*Not only “Presentation Meeting” but also “Counseling andTraining Meeting” should be implemented.
*Manager should trust Small Group. Delegation of authority(4) Continual and steady Education, Training*Performance-based wage system without education and support needless pressure.
It makes workplace dissatisfied*Education of Problem solving procedure and Task achieving procedure isindispensable for all employees.
*Manager should make clear the competence of Small Group leader*Education to Small Group leaders to manage Small Groups(It includes bringing up next generation leaders)*Framework of ISO9001 Quality Management system should be made use ofevaluation for employees(5) Sharing system of technical know-how*Presentation is not Goal of activity.
After presentation, Exchanging comments
between Small Group and superior shouldbe held.
*Small group’s Improvement cases should be
deployed to other workplace by Staffs andsuperior.
(6) Evaluation to Results*Manager should feature the Evaluation that meets purpose of Small Group Activity*Recognition should be decided with not only presentation but daily activity inworkplace.

374.2 Method of Implementing Small Group Activities
In order to develop the Small Group Activities (SGA), the following basic method should beestablished in a company based on the philosophy of “Participation of All Employees” from top
management through worker level.
1.

Establishment of Infrastructure / Environment for SGA by management
The employer or top management should provide the following with employees.
(1) Announcement of policy to support SGA(2)
Organization of a task force or a team to motivate and assist SGA(3)
Establishment of management system of SGA in a company(4) Establishment of annual plan of action to proceed SGA in the company(5)Establishment of places and opportunities for guidance, presentation of activity results(6)
Establishment of the award system for employees’ contribution(7) Establishment of a reporting system from registration of a theme through results ofactivities(8) Establishment of a fair evaluation system(9)Establishment of technical supporting system including educational
system for workers

2.

Establishment of groups
Consulting with a manager, workers should form groups for SGA. The size of a groupdepends upon the size of section or group and subject etc. It is very important thateach group member shall have rolls to proceed activities under a group leader.

3.

Setup of subject for activities
Based on findings of problems / barrier to be improved, under consulting with a manager,each group will setup a subject for their activities. Basically, subjects as follows are notsuitable for SGA.
- Subject technically too difficult- Subject expected a long term for activities or manpower beyond a group size
For more information how to setup of subject for activities one can consult with the paper
entitled “Discover Themes Method” written by Mr. Akira Kobayashi of Buil-Brain Co., Ltd.

4.

Setup of basic duration of group activities for SGA
Managers shall set up a basic period for SGA from setting up a subject through completing
the report, in accordance with a basic business plan.
Usually, one year or 6 months would be appropriate.

5.

Setup of plan of action for each subject by an individual group
Each group should setup a plan of action for activities.

This is a Japanese suggestion system that encourage the employee to participate ingiving suggestion and getting rewards in return.
The rewards are focused on quantity notvaluable so that the chances to get rewards are high, resulting in getting many more people toparticipate.
8) Lean Production System (LPS)This system is to eliminate all kinds of wastes in the process but to focuses on value
added to the process.
This is a normal practice in the U.S. automobile industry which iscomparable to the Toyota Production System in Japan.
9) Pareto Chart
This is one of the 7 QC tools where main causes and miner causes of a problem aresequentially identified in graph from called Pareto Chart. This technique was developed by
J.M. Juran in 1950 using a principle of Vilfredo Pareto, on economist in nineteen century.
10) Plan – Do – Check – Act Cycle
This is a quality improvement cycle consisting of the following steps(1) Develop a good Plan

This is a small group activities (SGA) based maintenance system that encourage
teams set up in all level of the organization working together to find out problems and solutions
for work improvement.
16) Total Quality Management (TQM)
This is a total quality management conducted by a group of QC experts in an
organization.
17) Toyota Production System (TPS)This is a production system developed by Toyota Motors Company in Japan. The
system would focus on eliminating losses that affect to the production cost and quality of
products would be guarantied for each processing step.
18) Why – Why analysis
This is a problem analysis based on why question until ending with no why question.

4.4 Staff Training
4.4.1 Introduction
Training is the key to staying on track for energy conservation. It is management
responsibility to ensure that technical and operating personnel are trained to operate theequipment safely and in a proper manner. Effective training is not accomplished in asingle whirlwind session that once completed, may be quickly forgotten. Training must
be through and continuous to help not only to inform but also to change attitudes.
Top management must give proper support to its Energy Committee, and to the Energy
Manager in the form of training. Training allows the staff to explore new ideas,interchange them with experts and with other trainee participants, and feel more
comfortable with the role they must fulfill. In turn, trained technical and management
staff should be encouraged to provide in-house training to operating and lower leveltechnical staff.
Staff training is the primary tool by which awareness is generated and knowledge istransmitted. As part of the Total Energy Management program, management needs toaddress two major areas for employee training:(1) Training to develop new skills in technologies- In-house Training- Outside Training and study Tour- Overseas Training(2) Training to adopt new attitudes towards energy wastage and reduction of waste.
The introduction of new technologies, process equipment, operating and maintenanceprocedures and energy documentation methods requires training at many levels. Thereis a need to train new as well as experienced personnel in energy efficient operation ofcompany facilities. The need for training in each should be reviewed periodically toassure that all new personnel are properly trained and to refresh the skills of existing
personnel. The Staff training is typically at three levels:- Management- Engineering/Technical/Supervisory- Operators.
And following topics are some guidelines to train all energy conservation staffs;- Awareness on Energy conservation- TPM and TQM concept45-Electric System
Thermal System
Production Process
Reduction of Loss
Maintenance
Data Recording & Summary
ReportEvaluation
etc.

Finally, the ultimate target of the energy conservation training are;
- We can never stop learning or training unless we stop working- Creativity is not just a natural talent, it is also a skill that everyone can develop andlearn more.
4.4.2 Developing steps of the training program, there are 6 steps as thefollowing;
(1)
(2)
(3)
(4)
(5)
(6)

Analysis for the training needs
Develop the objective of the training
Specify the matrix of the training
Select the suitable training method
Implementing the training
Evaluate the training(1) Analysis for the Training Needs- Concept- Objective- Target group- Contents- Trainer- Plan- Venue and equipment(2) Develop the objective of the training- The right and concise objective of the training is an important for the training
on energy conservation.
- The good objective will be a good guideline for the trainers on developing thematrix and a training method.
- The objective of the training will guide to the trainees what they should learn andacknowledge after the training.

46

(3) Specify the matrix of the training- Matrix of the training must cover and reflect everything that the trainees have toknow.
- A clear matrix will help specifying duration for the training.
(4) Select the suitable training method- Presentation- Case Studies- Practice Cases- Workshop- Discussion- Demonstration- Coaching- On the job training(5) Implementing the training- Prepare venue (classroom, theater, U – shape, I – shape, etc.)- Prepare training documents (copies, bags, files, etc.)- Prepare coffee breaks and meals- Confirm participants, (Top management, trainers, trainees, etc.)- Prepare evaluation forms- Prepare training equipments (computers, LCD, notebooks, calculators,
whiteboard, flipchart, pen, etc.)- Prepare certificates(6) Evaluate the training- For the content and matrix (relevant or none)- For the method of the training- For the objective (support to the requirement or not)- For the trainers- For the acknowledge or benefit (progress or none)- For the venue and facilities of the training- For the Outcome (After Training in some duration to follow up)
4.4.3 Management Training
Sufficient awareness should exist in management to treat energy as a resource that needs
to be managed. All too often, managers looking to increase company profits concentrateon increasing production and not on reducing costs. Through training and information
management can not only acquire the insight into efficient energy utilization but also

47

provide guidance, motivation and encouragement to the company staff. In this manual
an outline for a comprehensive energy management strategy has been presented. A
number of courses are now being offered by public and private sector companies to train
people in energy management.
4.4.4 Engineers and Supervisors Training
In most industries and building facilities, engineers, higher-level technicians andsupervisors are the on-line decision-makers, accountable to the senior level managers.
They are usually the most interested and willing, as well as the most capable ofunderstanding the technical (as well as the managerial) concepts of energy conservation.
It is important to consider broader training for technical personnel, even across disciplines.
For example, a mechanical engineer could well be sent to participate in an electricalenergy seminar, since much of the mechanical equipment he operates and maintains uses
electricity. Similarly, a boiler operator may be sent to a course in steam systems
efficiency: boiler room steam may be used for fuel preheating, condensate returns to theboiler, steam may be used for feed water preheating, and so on.
Technical staffs have the major role to play in operator training, and therefore need to be
trained first.
Training technical-level staff will not only help ensure training of the operators andworkers, but also encourage this staff to prepare and present interesting and cost-effectiveenergy conservation proposals to the senior management.
It is important to note that from a personnel development policy, training is an extremely
significant activity. Most companies know that the best future managers are those withthe widest experience and broadest perspectives. At the same time, the technical staffs
themselves know that training is important, they desire to learn more, and also see
training as a strong motivational factor in their work.
4.4.5 Operator Training
The operator generally decides how he will operate the facility to accomplish the ends set
by or for him. His decisions or ability have a most direct influence on savings or costs.
Depending on the operators’ skill, an investment in education and training can produce
the greatest benefit rate of all. Poorly skilled, careless, or incompetent operators will
degrade benefits. Competency is needed and must be produced by training andretraining.
They have learnt their skills by on-the-job training over several years. Short seminars or48

workshops in operating specific equipment more efficiently need to be reinforced bysupervisors to ensure that training given during the short courses or workshops is fully
absorbed by the operating personnel.
The operator must also be made aware of the reasons for operating the equipment in aparticular (energy efficient) manner. They must know the importance and use of thedata they are required to collect. Energy conservation programs may not be successful if
operators are not educated, kept informed, motivated and properly trained. They morethan anyone, may determine success or failure.
4.4.6 Internal Training
For in-house courses or training programs, the same comments made in the preceding
section apply. In these courses, company management has additional control that should
be exercised. The course instructors are usually from within the company.
Management should be careful in selecting these persons, for not everyone is good attraining or teaching. In this case, evaluation of the courses, even if informal, is very
important. While some persons may be better at classroom training and teaching, others
may be much more effective at on-the-job or hands-on training programs. Management
should be aware of the different capabilities of their staff, and assign them tasks
accordingly. Following Table can be used for training record for each trainee.

Why do people waste energy in their organization without cares?
some reasons.
• No concerns in energy cost
• No problems in energy supply and consumption• Not their duties to save energy• Daily work load make no time to think about energy savings• No energy saving policy from top management

Listed below are

Top management or energy manager have to find out how to motivate their people toand owner give cooperation in energy savings, taking into consideration environmental andecological impact, decreasing in energy reserves, and rising in energy price.
Motivation of people to save energy is a challenge job of an energy manager.
is his opportunity to be accepted by the top management if successful.

To be successful energy manager should demand not only for data but also for comments ofparticipations. His task is not only to set up a target and plan, announce and request others tofollow. Instead, he should persuade all the people concerned to participate in making action
plan, make comments and implement according to the plan.
Building morale and encouragement• Ask what they think or know about energy losses and how to improve• Agree on objective, target and results of energy audit• Give incentives, rewards to any responses
Good practices for building awareness and motivation• Top management paid strong attention to energy conservation, set up andannounce energy conservation policy• Top management support energy conservation team and activities• Top management gives incentives, rewards or admire to individual or team
who succeed in energy conservation projects• Continuation of energy conservation activities• Follow up the projects and announce results of energy conservation to all
employee• Make good understanding and coordination among the people concerned

Try to get participation from all the people concerned in every steps i.e.
suggestion, making decision, implementation, follow up and evaluation
Inform all the key staff of the organization about energy losses and convince
them the benefit of energy saving policy. This would draw attention of theremaining staff to participate
Working group consisting of representatives from each division should
encourage and support their staff to implement energy saving measures
At the end of every mouth there would be an evaluation energy consumption
and energy saved in comparison with that of the past
Maintain common understandings and prevent from watching mistakes to eachother. Instead, follow up of results of implementation should be conducted
The former employee should be a good example of energy saver for the newcomer
In order to get strong support working group should collect energy saving
results and report to the management
Organize in house training by utilizing inside and outside qualified speakers
Campaign or connect use of electrical equipment
PR of energy consumption data and energy savings by posting on a board or
through local boast casting
Organize and energy conservation week with various activities e-g, seminars,
exhibitions, contest etc.

Chapter 6 Evaluation of Total Energy Management
6.1 General
Although SGA and TPM are applied in the Total Energy Management (IEM)
evaluation of TEM implementation is, however, essential and needed. In the evaluation thefollowing aspects should be taken into consideration:
1) Policy of TEM
2) Results of implementation
3) Comparison of the results with KPI
6.2 Preparation of evaluation form
In order to achieve the objectives given in the policy it is essential to evaluate theresults of TEM implementation. An evaluation tool capable of monitoring the results is thus
designed as given in Table 5.1. There should be three levels of evaluation as follows:1)

Self evaluation – This is an internal evaluation conducted by staff within a section
or work unit in every month.

2)

Section Manager Evaluation – This is an evaluation conducted by a section
manager or a division manager who takes care of that section in every threemonths in order to intensity the evaluation.

3) Top Management Evaluation – This is an evaluation conductial by a top
management. The evaluation results obtained will be used for personnel
evaluation i.e. for annual increment of staff salary or giving bonus.

53

54

6.3

Key Performance Index for Personnel Evaluation

In order to get cooperation and participations in TEM or other activities of thecompany Key Performance Index (KPI) relate to each activity must be given for personnel
evaluation for annual increment of salary or giving bonus in all staff level e.g., factory manager,
department manager, section manager, supervisor and operating staff.
Weighting for each KPI would depend on agreement in each organization.

Chapter 1 Procedures of Energy Audit
1.1

Introduction

In order to effectively promote energy conservation activities key steps approach isneeded to apply. This is presented in more details in this Chapter.
In implementation of any energy conservation projects energy audit should be firstly
conducted in order to determine the present energy situation and problems which would lead to theidentification of improvement measures.
And the data collected can be used as a reference
throughout the project duration.
Energy audit could be conducted by using outside consultant or internal technical staff.
One of the main objectives of this handbook is to guide the user how to conduct self energy audit
without relying on outside consultants.

1.2

Purposes of Energy Audit
Energy audit is implemented for following purposes;- Find realistic energy savings- Create important information, new ideas- Define cost effective project- Prepare action plans- Gather ammunition to help get approval- Develop staff training programs

1.3

Main Stages of Energy Audit
Energy audit includes seven important stages which are seen below;- Data collection and analysis- Site investigations- Conduct cost/benefit analysis- Prepare a concise report- Present the result to management- Action plan for project implementation- Follow up monitoring to prove results(1) Data collection and Analysis
Following data below are collected and analyzed;

57

-Historical information on utilities unit consumption. (Energy intensity)(toe/ton-product)- Comparison with standard/Industrial best, average.
- Production data for industrial plants to find out operation improvement
opportunities.
- Cost (tariff) analysis.
The data can be collected in an efficient way with the comprehensive form ofquestionnaire or information format. This kind of form can be used both in the case ofinternal energy audit and outside consultants’ audit.
Actual energy consumption in terms of fuel, electricity and water, etc. can be obtained
either through:- Measurement- Calculation; or- Heat and material balances.
The best way is through measurement. This may not always be possible due to poor
metering or the measuring point may not be inaccessible.
Detailed explanation is made in latter part.

(2) Site Investigations
Procedures of Site Investigation normally includes following stages;- Find major energy users.
- Conduct site tests.
(Conducting measurement and test works in the factory in order to collect all data onenergy consumption and energy efficiency.)- Install energy monitoring where required to assess opportunities and to identify
energy waste.
- Discuss operations with site personnel, often they will know the energy use
problems.
In order to conduct site investigations and site tests, the measuring instruments asshown below are necessary.
- Portable data logger to monitor energy use with analog and digital signals input
capability.
- Digital thermometer, Infrared thermometer, Thermo-Hygrometer.
- Clip-on power meter, current meter, power factor meter, Demand profile meter.
- Combustion analyzer, O2 analyzer.
- Ultrasonic flow meter, Ultrasonic leak checker etc.
In order to facilitate determining energy saving potentials, two major opportunities,

58

Fuel saving and Electricity saving are considered;
Fuel Saving;- Enhancement of heat insulation- Combustion improvement.
- Waste heat recovery.
- Reduction of waste heat.
- Efficiency increase in energy use.
Electricity Saving;- Electricity demand control to reduce electricity costs.
- Power factor correction to reduce electrical demand and improve electrical
distribution capacity.
- Reduce compressed air waste by minimizing air leaks, and isolation valves.
- Variable speed drives for fans and pumps to reduce energy loss due to valve
throttling.
- Pump impeller trimming.
- Lighting replacement for more efficient lamps.
- Lighting control.
By well consideration of the operation and schedule management, energy saving
becomes possible.
-

Good Housekeeping (As first priority).
Re-scheduling operations to occur during low cost energy period.
Reducing rework or production wastes.
Maintaining equipment correctly and promptly.
Reducing delay times between processes particularly those involving
heating/cooling.
- Improving control systems to ensure production quality targets are maintained.
- Improving the process; and- Installing new technology.
The management would consider the simple low cost improvements first and only think
about new equipment after all other improvements have been undertaken. Cheapest andeasiest measures to implement should be first implemented.
(3) Cost and Benefits Analysis when conducting Feasibility study on energy saving
projects, cost and benefits analysis are essential;- Assess both technical and economical feasibility.
- Obtain supplier information and budget pricing as required.

59

- Process monitoring to assess saving potential.
- Use company financial evaluation criteria.
- Calculate return on investment, payback.
As next step, it is necessary to prepare the Strategy for implementation. In general,
no-cost or low-cost measures should be, of course, implemented first.
To consider Priority of the energy conservation projects, one can grade the potential
projects under the following headings:
Expected

Title

Cost

annualsavingPayback(years)

Effortrequired(man days)

Proposed

start dateOutside help
needed(Y/N)

Detailed Analysis of Energy Conservation Potentialities or Measures:
A typical energy study report has to include all energy conservation opportunities,
potential energy saving measures which could be obtained from opportunities, and an
efficient summary table which shows an analysis of investment costs of theseopportunities. A good report also has to include an analysis and detailed descriptionof every measures in order to make the best possible information available for the
management and thus to allow the management of the company to make appropriate
decisions on the implementation. In addition to the possible risks analysis which isimportance in the project implementation, the equipment expenditures has to be
estimated with high accuracy as well.
(4) Preparation of concise report
After following works,- Collection of basic energy consumption and production data, and determination of
specific energy consumption where available,- Conducting measurement and test works in the factory in order to collect all data onenergy consumption and energy efficiency- Calculation of energy balance and energy efficiency for the important equipment
and processes in the factory;
a concise feasibility report must be prepared to express outline of project and feasibility
and to convince their management.
Report must generally include following item;- List of areas in need of improvement with priority Background information on the
Plant

60

- Energy usage, details of energy consumption in machinery and equipment(including Evaluation of problems in gathering data and Necessity of installation ofmeters and proper maintenance)- Concrete measures to address the improvement plan (Assessment of energy saving
potentials of various measures)- Proposal with expected benefit and investment and Evaluation of past energy
conservation investments.
- Action plan for implementation.
- Evaluation of staff involved in energy production and use, and Staff training plan.
- Developing implementation plan, providing necessary guidance on project
implementation.
- Conclusions and recommendations
Appendices shall include- Details of the energy analysis.
- List of members.
As shown on the above, a good report also should present recommendations onenergy conservation and, besides it should also specify the implementation order ofthese recommendations at the same time. In addition, the report should include
some information about how the implementation will be conducted, who will be
responsible for implementation and how long will the implementation take.
(5) Staff Training.
Staff training in Energy audit is important object. Through Energy audit, staffs are
educated and trained. Training of staffs is conducted in various stages:- On-going training while doing the audit.
- Energy awareness training through presentations and meetings- Energy conservation training for staff.
- Technology updates for engineers.
Detailed explanation on staff training is stated in the latter parts.
(6) Presentation of the results to management
To persuade a company management, several considerations may be taken as follows;- Persuasive Information to management.
- Pilot or demonstration projects to prove concept.
- Outside assistance- Examples of energy savings achieved by similar industries.
As the management and managers who are the decision-makers, you must convince61them that the projects are viable.
(7) Action Plan for Project Implementation
Determination of the energy conservation potentialities that require capital investment
specification of the equipment which are subject to replacement, quality improvement
and the additional equipment to be provided; and recommendation regarding thoseequipment. In addition, calculation of the cash equivalent of the energy to be saved
and the cost of investment. New equipment to be provided should be taken into accountin following points:- Equipment specifications.
- Specific instructions.
- Financial assistance available.
- Budget requirement.
- Seek examples of similar projects as a reference.
(8) Follow up monitoring to prove results
Implemented projects are evaluated in following viewpoints;- Typical annual savings from projects with paybacks between 0 to 3 years.
- Staff energy awareness is improved.
- Improved knowledge of process operations leads to reduce energy wastes.
- Specific actions are defined to improve energy use.
- Increased awareness of energy costs leads to more management focus on energy use
and improved energy conservation.

Usually, the most important part of an energy audit study is the achieving of the accuratemass and energy balances for the whole factory (or plant) and / or for the equipments which
are operated in different sections of the plant. Without these data, it is almost impossible toconduct the quantitative analysis which determines the value and the volume of the energy
conservation potential.
Based on the experiences, in most cases, the necessary instrumentation which are to be usedin order to calculate mass and energy balance is not sufficient sometimes in the plants. In
addition to this situation, even if some instruments are existing, the accuracy levels of themare often not clear. In this situation, usage of the portable instruments is the most useful inthe energy audit study. Thus, the basic data can be obtained and the accuracy of the fixed
instruments can be controlled.
The measurements which should be made the most frequently in the plant are as follows:- Temperatures (ambient, different flows, surfaces, etc.)- Volume or flow speed of the gas, liquid and solid substances.
- Pressures (including the vacuum and draft in the furnaces)- Temperature and component in the flue gases (oxygen, carbon-monoxide, etc.)- Relative humidity (in order to determine the quantity of water steam which is containedin the air that enters and exit the dryers)- Electrical energy (Voltage, Current, Power factor)- Luminous intensity- Linear speed and revolution speed on the motors and connected rotating equipments.
- Conductivity of different waters (boiler feed water, blow-down, condensate, fresh water,
etc.)
The portable instruments should not be considered as a replacement for the fixed
instruments which are periodically checked and calibrated and used in order for the plant tobe operated under control and at optimum capacity. However, when the fixed instruments
are not available, the majority of the data which is mentioned above can be collected byusing portable instruments.
The physical data that is related to the steam, thermal fluids and fuels and material which isprocessed or produced, are also necessary in order to achieve energy and material balances.
The data which is frequently used in the audit calculations are; the specific heat, enthalpies,
calorific value of fuel, densities and the heat transfer coefficients. In most cases, the data
can be obtained from the reference books (for example from steam tables) and usually it is63not necessary to obtain the data by trial method.

Energy metering
Energy metering can lead to improved equipment management & greater industrial
competition.
(1) Measurement of different parameters and control of process flow for:- determining breakdown of energy use,
- calculating equipment efficiencies, and- tracking the evolution of production rations.
(2) Energy management for:- identifying the cause of increased energy use,
- optimizing the control of production process,- choosing the energy with least cost at all times,- assuring quality of production.
(3) Continuous follow-up leading to:- greater reliability and safety of equipment,- increased life of equipment- improved working conditions,- reduction in pollution emission(4) Better knowledge of the above data helps:- to justify investments related to energy management and calculate the benefits,- to motivate the personnel by introducing means for measuring the efficiency of
his/her activities.

2.4

Approach to Energy Monitoring
Steps prior to the establishment of energy monitoring and management system:- Assess status of existing measuring instrumentation.
- Specify the need for new measuring devices and define the points of their installation.
- Select well adapted data collection and processing equipment.
- Consult competent enterprises to assure satisfactory installation, maintenance andafter-sale support.
- Propose a well designed training program for operators.

Chapter 3 Data Collection and Analysis (Data Collection Standard Form)
After the information in the questionnaire form (A sample form is attached here) which has
been sent by the factory after being completed, is evaluated and after that, if necessary, amember of the team which is to conduct energy conservation survey, pays a visit to the factoryin order to determine the size of the factory to have a visual understanding of the departmentsof the factory and to determine the necessary portable test devices which are to be used insurvey areas. In addition, the locations in which the test devices are to be installed during
the energy conservation survey, and the factory staff is asked to establish connection parts(Flue gas measuring hole, suitable connection parts for electrical connection). Furthermore,
more detailed information regarding the parts which are not clear in the questionnaire form isdemanded and preparation of information about the process is required.
The most convenient date is decided by examining the work schedule of the factory incooperation with the factory staff. Duration of the factory survey, which is to be conducted,
are determined by such factors as results of diagnosis, the need for devices and thedepartments of the factory to be examined.

Chapter 4 Planning, Targeting and Benchmarking for Energy Conservation
Projects
4.1

Promotion Procedures for Energy Saving Projects
Through Energy Audit, the identification and evaluation of energy saving projects are
implemented. Chapter 5 and 6, devoted to explanation of project planning andimplementation, deal with key issues common to all kinds of projects. Accordingly, thecontents of these chapters can be utilized not only in Energy Conservation projects but also inprojects in other fields.
Following steps are taken for the promotion of energy conservation projects;

Establish

Setting a target

Grasp the current Energy use

Management of energy intensity

Planning improvement measures

Implementation & Improvement

Grasp of the current Energy use and Management of energy intensity is a very important
action. This action is followed by the goal setting/targeting.
In order to promote energy conservation in factories, “Plan - Do - Check - Action” cycle
usually adopted which is in detail described in the previous part.

4.2

Setting Energy Conservation Goals and Targets(1) Purposes of Setting Energy Saving Goals and Targets
Goals and targets are an important part of an energy conservation activity in factories.
For an energy management program, this is of crucial importance. Performance
improvement or energy savings targets are also a logical outcome of the energy
accounting, monitoring, and analysis.
Targets are set for implementing changes and achieving the predicted energy costsavings. The targets can relate to the whole firm, to one site, to a production process,or even to a particular machine. A company may set a range of targets for different
departments, taking into account the scope for improvement.
A goals program has a number of obvious and significant benefits:•people are forced to plan ahead, and think concretely, because goals can only beachieved by implementation of specific projects.

•

goals assign specific accountability to everyone, from the individual Energy
Manager, right up to the top management, all of whose credibilities depend onachieving the goals•

goals serve as a standard against which progress can be measured.

•setting and evaluating goals elevates the energy issue to a higher level of awarenesswithin the company.

Setting goals will not automatically produce results. A continuous process ofmonitoring, reviewing and evaluation is necessary to keep the goals visible andreachable.
In addition, some baseline data must be available in order to properly set reasonable
goals. This must be data on energy consumption and production; it should beavailable for at least one, but preferably two or three years. Based on the variations inthis data, energy consumption can be evaluated, and reasonable targets for reducing
consumption can be set.
For the purpose of setting the targets, the most excellent and systematic way is toestablish so-called “In-house database”. In ASEAN PROMEEC projects, it has been
recommended for years to develop that database. By downloading and utilizing a
prototype of standardized database, a factory can internally accumulate and analyze the81energy data, as explained in the above, for some years until they can establish their own“In-house database”, which can be utilized to set the targets for the future. After the
In-house database is established and utilized, then that can be shown to outside people,
in a way of exchanging standardized data and information.
(2) Approach to Setting Goals or Targets
There are two principal methods of goal or target setting. First is the so-called ‘top
down’ approach, a broadly based generalized technique that does not usually draw on adetailed analysis of the company’s circumstances. Second is the ‘bottom up’ method,which is based on a close knowledge of the energy requirements of different parts ofthe firm’s activities. Both systems have their merits and the method to be selected
depends on circumstances and cost-effectiveness. The most firms are likely to preferthe ‘bottom up’ approach since it is, by its very nature, more closely tailored tocompany needs and hence more effective in providing motivation.
Even if the ‘bottom up’ approach is adopted, there can still be advantages for senior
management to gather information on competitors’ performance as reference for goal
setting/targeting. This issue is related to the topic of “4.3 Benchmarking” discussed
later.
(3) How to Set Targets in Factories
The questions for the Energy Committee and for the Energy Manager are how to set up
goals and targets, and what is a logical numerical goal or target for a given Company?
Goals should be attainable, yet still challenging. A number of possibilities or
examples of the form targets can take are given below.
Absolute energy savings basis: Some companies may set the goal of providing an
absolute reduction in the energy consumption. Common energy units, such as kWh,
GJ, or Btu can be used for all the energy consumption; the goal is a percent reduction of
the total energy consumption.
Monetary savings basis: In other companies, the goal may be simply the reduction ofenergy costs. For example, the goal would be to save a certain percentage of lastyear’s energy bill. If the total energy cost the previous year were US$ 50,000 thecompany (the Energy Manager) would be expected, for example, to come up withprojects that saved US$ 5,000:
Unit energy efficiency basis: A more common basis for setting an energy-saving goalis improvement in unit energy efficiency, or specific energy consumption. In this case,the company sets a goal of a certain percent reduction in the energy required to
manufacture a particular product; or in the amount of energy consumed at each82

processing or production unit within the factory. For example, if the unit consumptionof a paper mill were 20.7 GJ/ton paper produced, a 5% improvement would set a goalof 19.7 GJ/ton. This presupposes that a good baseline measure of specific energy
consumption is already available.
A good rule for setting goals is: start small. First year goals of 3 to 6% of energy
consumption or specific energy consumption are quite adequate for most companies.
In facilities where no attention has been paid to energy, or to maintenance, thesesavings will be extremely easy to achieve. In other cases, it may be more difficult.
Another way may be to develop a target over several years; for example, set up a goalof 15% energy savings over 3 years. The yearly goals are usually better, however, as
the reward can be seen sooner, success celebrated more often, and adjustments andcorrections to goals can be made more frequently (especially if plant productionchanges).
4.3 Benchmarking“Benchmarking” is a general term in the field of business administration or corporate
management, meaning “gathering information on performance of others and compare” or“learn from others”. By benchmarking themselves against others who are best in the field,
companies can learn more efficient ways of operating. You can learn from the international
players as well as the competitors in Thailand or in the Southeast Asia.
This concept was already referred to in “Part II, 1.3 Objectives and Targets”. If you could
get good Benchmarking figures, they might be utilized as reference for goal setting or
targeting.
Though Benchmarking is an effective tool for performance comparison and improvement, it
should be used in a very careful manner, because it requires all the detailed data andinformation on not only energy type and consumption but also on manufacturing or
production processes. The latter includes information on raw materials, products (types
and grades), processes and other related conditions. Inaccurate comparison not standing on
the same basis would give the misleading results.
Accordingly, if you want to do the Benchmarking, that means you should get very detailed
information from others, and you have to think about the issue of confidentiality.
There would be cases of gathering detailed information from others as shown below:- Industrial Association who gathers data from members by questionnaires- Close relationship of top executives of companies in the same industry- Seminars and/or conferences (not so detailed generally)- Consultants who gather and disclose information based on multi-client contracts(Process licensors could sometimes be in this kind of position)83

In any case, you will not disclose information unless you see the bigger merits in getting
others’ information. So it is important that the information is kept confidential only to beshared by the specific group members. In this relation, “Establishing Database” may be an
excellent approach to serve the purpose. As stated in the previous item 4.2, the first stepwould be “In-house database”. Then the database could be expanded and improved byinformation exchange with other companies, possibly including competitors depending upon
the purpose, to establish the “Industry database” at a level of industrial association.
This Energy Management Handbook does not contain concrete Benchmarking figures forvarious kinds of industry for the above-mentioned reasons. As said in “Part I, 3.3 Future
Shape after Expansion”, it is expected that actual successful examples of applying the
Handbook are put into the book in the future. Then the concrete figures will be
accumulated in the Handbook covering various fields of industry, which will ultimately form
the Benchmarking figures. Anyway that shall be also linked with the Database issue
mentioned here.

Program designing- Improved operation and greater competition are the main objectives of energy
efficiency action.
- Industry should invest not only in efficient equipment and processes, but also on
monitoring & management, maintenance, information & training as well.
- Investments should be defined and made according to a global energy policy,
accounting for all parameters, existing and future, which influence decision making.
(2) Implementing Steps
Implementation of the energy survey recommendations is normally the responsibility ofthe energy manager, who, ideally, has participated in the energy survey and helped draw
up the action plan. The low-cost maintenance and housekeeping measures should be
implemented first, to begin capturing energy cost savings and improving efficiency.
Higher capital cost measures may require more detailed feasibility studies to determine
exact equipment specification and to detail the financial attractiveness. “Technical
Directory”, now under development in the PROMEEC Projects, will greatly serve forthe purpose of Technical Study. The energy manager’s role is to coordinate theseprojects, working with outside consultants, evaluating the projects, and communicating
to top management to ensure their continued commitment.

Project Implementation SchedulingA realistic schedule should be drawn up for the various stages of the project
implementation. This is an essential part of the feasibility study as the implementation of
every project must be related to a time-scale. Such a schedule should initially define thevarious implementation stages, such as negotiation and contracting, project formulation, andactual construction and running-in, in terms of time required for each stage. The scheduleshould then lay down a time-programme that combines the various stages into a consistentpattern of activities that connect to one another. This comprehensive schedule should
cover the entire phase, including the period between the investment decision and the end of
the start-up stage of which the actual construction period is only one, although the mostimportant, part.

87When implementing a project, the company should first set up his own project
implementation management team depending on its project largeness, technologicaldifficulty, etc. shown previously. The efficient implementation of a project may depend
considerably on the support services the counterpart team is able to furnish. This teamshould not only remain active during the implementation period, but should ideally form thenucleus of the managerial, technical and operational staff that is to be put in charge of
operating the plant.
5.4

Detailed Engineering (equipment and civil works), tendering, evaluation ofbids, awards of contracts
An adequate period should be provided for various activities before the actual site work
begins, including detailed planning, preparation of tender documents, calls for tenders,
evaluation of tenders, contract negotiations and preparatory work for site installation.
There is normally a considerable lapse of time between the invitation for machinery
quotations and the placing of final orders, but nevertheless this period can generally be
projected without too much difficulty. The time elapsing before equipment is delivered
may, however, be very long, ranging from three to six months for relatively simple
equipment to two years and more for complex process machinery, machine tools and heavy
electrical equipment.
In ordering the machinery, the erection time and the requirements for various processing
stages need to be considered, to ensure that the equipment arrives in a sequence that is
optimal from both these viewpoints.

5.5

Construction supervision, co-ordination, testing and take-over of equipment
and civil works
First of all the company has to decide which of these activities should be performed by his
own staff and which, if any, by consultants.
The construction of plant buildings and facilities cannot commence before a final plantlayout plan has been prepared, land has been purchased at the selected site, and the site has
been prepared and developed. Site preparation can generally be planned without any major
problem; the process should not take long except where site development presents
difficulties. The sequence of civil works and construction activities, in terms of
construction time and building requirements, needs to be carefully defined in relation to
infrastructure requirements, availability, and the arrival and erection schedule of different
types of equipment.

88While the construction of civil works and infrastructure facilities is proceeding at the site,
machinery and equipment may need to be inspected at various locations and to bedispatched.
The main critical stages during the implementation phase are the testing of equipment, trial
production and commissioning of the plant. The trial production period is particularly
crucial since it can only be initiated once the entire plant has been erected (if one disregards
partial tests and trial runs performed during the stages of construction). There are several
project implementation techniques and schedules available to facilitate this task.

89

Chapter 6 Evaluation of Energy conservation Projects
6.1

Measurement and Verification of Results(1) General
From a financial viewpoint, energy conservation can be achieved by two different
approaches:c Implementation of housekeeping and maintenance measures that improve efficiencyof existing plant and equipment. Most can be done at low cost out of operating
expenses.
d Investment in new plant and equipment.
All investment, whether for energy conservation or not, should be subject to asystematic process of capital appraisal with two goals in mind:

c to provide a basis for selection or rejection of projects by ranking them in order of
profitability

d to ensure that investments are not made in projects that earn less than the cost ofcapital, which is frequently expressed as a minimum rate of return.
After implementation of the energy saving project, following item should be checked;- Typical annual savings from projects with paybacks between 0 to 3 years.
- Staff energy awareness is improved.
- Improved knowledge of process operations leads to reduce energy wastes.
- Specific actions are defined to improve energy use.
- Increased awareness of energy costs leads to more management focus on energy use
and improved energy conservation.
(2) Preparation of Project Evaluation Report
When carrying out the evaluation of capital investment in energy efficiency projects,
the Energy Manager or consultant should keep the audience in mind. The evaluation
report, or feasibility study should be addressed to the decision makers, who are general
top managers in the facility. Investment appraisal by management should focus on
discerning, from the many claims that will be made on scarce resources, those projects
that will best meet the company’s goals.
The Energy Manager should recognize three important considerations:c The decision maker should be identified so that his needs can be satisfied.

90

d The form of the project evaluation report should also satisfy the decision maker.
Company policy may dictate the use of a particular format, or the decision maker
may prefer a one-page summary.

e The report should state clearly and explicitly the following:- why the project is being considered- what the project is intended to achieve- what the financial and other benefits should be.

Post Implementation Monitoring
It is vital to ensure the savings predicted are confirmed through adequate monitoring.
Monitoring can be provided through a number of ways:(1) Using in-built metering equipment supplied with any new technology.
(2) Purchasing additional meters and installing these during the project.
(3) Using portable meters to monitor the performance of the new system.
(4) Salvaging existing meters from the equipment to be replaced.
Evaluation of performance is done by regularly comparing actual levels of energy
consumption with the expected energy use, as defined by a set of internally based standards
that draw on past performance and reflect the particular and varying circumstances ofindividual energy-accountable centers. Differences between actual consumption and thestandards will reveal either improvements in energy efficiency or a fall-off in performancelevels.
In this way, the information produced by monitoring forms a basis for continuing
performance evaluation and control. First, it will provide quantified evidence of exactly
how successful measures to improve performance have been. Second, it will indicate if
and where failures have occurred and trigger the necessary remedial action.
Allowance has to be made for the influence on energy consumption of “independent
variables” such as output levels, product mix, raw material variations, rejection rates andweather conditions. Approximations both for standards and the corrections due to therelevant “independent variables” can be derived from a company’s own past records. The
information can be refined as better records are collected.
Analysis should be a continuing process so that action can be taken speedily if energy
efficiency deteriorates. To ensure effective performance evaluation and control, each line
manager or plant operator must receive the energy, throughput, and other figures regularly(monthly in most plants, but on a weekly or a daily basis in large plants) and promptly, sothat departures from the standards can be quickly diagnosed and corrected. In turn, line91

managers themselves must ensure a rapid response to the information they receive. In thisrespect, well-designed reporting forms, expressed in readily understood energy cost terms,
will be of great assistance.

Technology Assessment
After completion of energy saving projects, outcomes of projects should be reflected into
manuals, standards or guidelines, for engineering, Operation and maintenance.
(1) Engineering Design Standards
When designing new systems or retrofitting old systems, standard engineering design
practices should be followed. Certainly, boilers are designed and installed according
to the National Boiler Code; pressure vessels are built to certain code specifications.
However, where codes do not apply, design standards are lax, and often cause energy
waste. A few examples of poor design practices commonly evident in Pakistan are
noted below:

c Steam and condensate Piping is a common example where engineering standards
are not followed. Steam piping should be supported at regular intervals depending
on its size; piping should be inclined to allow condensed steam to drain toward drip
legs; drip legs and traps should be installed at regular intervals; piping should beproperly sized for the steam flow. If these standards are not followed, steam will
still be supplied to the process; however, piping will sag, causing steam leaks atflanges and connections, accumulations of condensate will cause water hammer,
slowly destroying valves and even equipment.

d Condensate piping should be laid in trenches, not on the ground. It is simply not
worth insulating piping that is laid on the ground. If laid in trenches, however,wastewater should not be allowed to flow in the same trenches.

e Additional electrical connections to existing panels should be limited; heavy loads
on existing wires cause both energy losses and deterioration of cable, as well as
increased voltage drops to end use equipment.

f Electric motors should be protected from dust, moisture, and dirt. If a motor burns
out, and must be rewound, the consequent drop in efficiency is an additional energy
cost to the company, not to mention lost production time due to motor burn-out.
A number of engineering standard practices which can also result in energy savings,
directly or indirectly, are available to companies through their Energy Manager orengineering department. Some of the more common practices with application in92

Pakistan are discussed below(2) Operation and Maintenance Guidelines
Deterioration of equipment due to lack of maintenance, improper spares, or harshenvironmental conditions are common sources of energy inefficiency in Pakistan.
Proper maintenance of equipment will extend equipment life and save energy. Theenergy manager, especially if he is from the maintenance department should help
implement a proper preventive maintenance program throughout the plant.
Equipment manufacturers’ guidelines should be consulted, and used as the basis for the
checking and maintenance of each piece of equipment.
(3) Energy Efficiency Standards
The highest level of engineering standards that a company can adopt relate to energy
efficiency. Implementing these standards will also reap benefits such as extended
equipment life and reduced maintenance costs. The Energy Manager can helporganize and implement these standards. Examples of such standards are thefollowing:c Operation and maintenance standards.: consistent procedures are developed toensure rapid maintenance when energy waste is involved; one example is tophysically tag steam leaks, compressed air leaks, failed steam traps, or even
un-insulated pipes until they are repaired.

d Standard for monitoring: a company can institute regular measurements andlogging of these measurements for all parameters related to equipment energy
consumption, or which can be signs of increased equipment energy use; examples
include motor currents (amps) at given load, boiler or furnace stack temperatures,
chilled water supply and return temperatures.

e Purchasing of similar equipment: equipment is bought consistently from the same
manufacturer, especially once that equipment has proven itself in plant operation;
this allows better familiarity of operators and maintenance staff with the equipment,
and results in better maintenance; also the stocking of spares is reduced; this applies
especially to small and numerous equipment such as steam traps, steam valves andother steam accessories, electric motors, electric accessories, but can also be used tofor larger equipment such as burners, boilers, compressors. Always, when buying
new equipment, efficiencies and operating costs should be checked to ensure thatthe best equipment is purchased.

93

f Energy efficient design standards: minimum level efficiency standards can beincorporated for light levels, insulation type and thickness.

g Equipment efficiency standards: the company will purchase only equipment thatmeets certain minimum standards of efficiency; this can apply especially to electricmotors, lamps and bulbs, burners, and even large equipment such as boilers.
While implementing all of these standards simultaneously is almost impossible inPakistan, some or others may be easier for different companies, depending on theirbusiness or their energy consumption. As time goes on, and energy costs rise, all ofthese will become more important. Certainly, each company should be aware of themany tools and approaches at their disposition to improve energy efficiency throughout
their operations.

Financial Evaluation
Smaller projects will normally be funded from internal sources. Larger projects may needexternal funding which may require consideration of several criteria such as:-

Amount of investment.
Amount and period of loan.
Current and expected future inflation rates.
Asset of borrower.
Lender’s judgment of the risk involved, etc.

Criteria used for evaluating project feasibility:-

Simple payback period for low cost projects.
Rate of return considers the benefits after the project has paid back.
Net present value gives the real cost benefits of a project.
Internal rate of return offers the most comprehensive comparator.
