For this project promotes Industrial Energy Efficiency (IEE) concepts of Energy Management System (EnMS) and Energy Systems Optimization (ESO), along with the promotion of deployment of the ISO 50000 Energy Management Standard Series.

Practice demonstrates that companies, new to the management concepts, implementing average energy efficiency measures gain through the adoption of EnMS in the first several years in the range between 10 and 20% at minimal investment costs.
