Unit 	Energy efficiency in industries	
Stage	Stage 1: Kick-off Training /Middle Managers	
Program	This unit is primarily intended to show them the various type of energy efficiency and focus on energy efficiency in the industry. The training unit describes the context of industrial energy control and performance diagnosis. Moreover, it explains the issues of measuring and verifying energy performance and underlines the industrial system’s energy control (energy indicators, energy performance diagnosis and energy balance sheet).	
Planning	Target group category:		Top management	
		x	Middle management	
		x	General employees	
	Specific group:	Technical team leaders (electrical, maintenance, logistics and production) and energy manager.	
	No of participants:	Up to 10 participants	
	Duration:	1,5 hours 	
	Elements:	a)	Kick-off about basic concepts, energy efficiency in different fields, energy transition law.
b)	Understanding energy efficiency in industrial energy uses.
c)	Understanding the issues of measurement and verification of energy performance. (energy indicators, energy performance diagnosis and energy balance sheet).	
General objectives	Aim: 	a)	Understanding energy efficiency issues and changes in the regulatory framework.
b)	Acquire all the technical skills necessary to accomplish audit missions in energy efficiency industrial sector.
c)	Monitor and know energy performance diagnosis. 	
	Verification:	The same multiple-choice questions before and after the training unit to see their improvements.	
Specific objectives	Aim: 		a)	Update their energy efficiency knowledge as appropriate.
b)	Add energy efficiency measurement and verification within the day-to-day working practices.
c)	Employees shall be motivated and actively involved to succeed in this challenge, because the energy performance depend strongly on their behaviours.	
	Verification: 		Activity: The same multiple-choice questions.	
Concept	Type of material:	Power Point, post-it, flipchart.	
	Contribution:	We cannot deny that top managers have a significant part in energy efficiency improvement, but, middle managers are the only ones able to guarantee and ensure continuous improvement. It is for these reasons, this unit will update their knowledge, raise their motivation by clarifying the effects of their behaviour to respond in real time.	
	Training levels:	Remember: the regulations applied to processes, equipment, facilities and industrial buildings.
Understand: how to monitor and measure the energy indicators and develop energy performance diagnosis.
Apply: Information they should know to develop a possible energy efficiency measures and improve their ways to communicate different changes in energy efficiency in the company.	
Learning activities	First, we will set a master class where it will be explained different concepts and energy efficiency industrial energy uses then roundtable or U-shaped table to discuss different way to know and define communication methodology in the company 	
Learning method		Master class	x	Case studies		Diagnostic analysis	
	x	Discussion forum		Self-learning		Problem-based learning	
	x	Role play		Cooperative learning		Others	
Learning resources	Trainer:	Training slides, Flipchart, Post it, Laptop, Beamer	
	Participants:	Pen and paper for taking notes.	

Evaluation Test
1.	Paint the looks of the building in light colors...
a.	increases the need to use artificial light.
b.	reduces the need to use artificial light.
c.	It doesn’t have effect on the consumption of artificial light.
2.	Which of these claims is not true?
a.	Install a recovery system heat lost during purges, you can save between 1 and 4% of energy.
b.	Repair leaks regularly. A single leak of 3.18 mm diameter on a steam network at 7 bar causes a loss of € 3,900 / year. 
c.	A supply of water not insulated does causes losses of thermal energy.
3.	Which of these claims is not true?

b.	Photocopiers that allow double-sided or duplex copies help save energy and reduce the cost of paper.
c.	Both computers and monitors in hibernation do not consume energy.
4.	What is a good practice to save energy?
a.	Not having temperature control on the heating system.
b.	Install a recovery system heat lost during purges
