What is an Energy Map?
● A way to keep track of the four segments that drive energy savings● Something that provides a visual representation of how energy and
material flows through your process● Something that provides a way to identify areas of potential energy
savings

● Identify the people responsible for managing the process, technology and energy -Assign responsibility for information needed -Create schedules and deadlines to gather important information -Build energy map that is useful for your organization
● Analyze the collected information for possible energy saving ideas -Enroll a larger group to critique the energy map -Identify the process issues which would have an impact on energy intensity -Identify the differences between each process within an energy system -Identify engineering & maintenance opportunities -Identify change in business practices which would improve energy intensity
