Scientific evidence and recent global affairs, such as the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russian invasion of Ukraine, stress the importance of establishing a more resilient and sustainable energy economy. Yet with all the buzz around renewables, clean fuel alternatives, and emerging technologies, companies often overlook one of the most economic and reliable pathways to make immediate and meaningful reductions in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions: energy efficiency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Energy efficiency must be a staple of our transition if we are reach a net zero economy in alignment with the <a href=\"https:\/\/unfccc.int\/process-and-meetings\/the-paris-agreement\/the-paris-agreement\">Paris Agreement<\/a>. In addition to mitigating impacts of climate change, reduced energy demand strengthens energy security by helping companies be less reliant on external sources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Implementing effective solutions first requires good data. Utility benchmarking should be a top priority for all companies and organizations who wish to advance their decarbonisation efforts and take greater control of their own energy security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-importance-of-utility-benchmarking\"><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">The Importance of Utility Benchmarking<\/span><\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Utility benchmarking is something every plant can do without delay and has a number of benefits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Utility performance can be compared to peers and industry standards<\/strong>. Without utility benchmarking, a company won\u2019t know where their performance ranks, much less have insight into opportunities for improvement. This makes utility benchmarking one of the most useful practices for companies wanting to gain a competitive advantage.<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Utility performance can be benchmarked across sectors<\/strong>. Because these industrial equipment are widely used across industries, there is ample professional capacity to measure and improve their performance, and support their operation.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Utility benchmarks can be reliably adjusted to climate or operating conditions.<\/strong> Using statistical modelling techniques, companies can compare utility performance across regions by adjusting for significant factors, like operational activity and weather patterns.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-white-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-white-background-color has-background\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-example-compressed-air\"><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Example: Compressed Air<\/span><\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>This snapshot shows the measured performance of 25 industrial compressed air systems in Singapore.

This may be because of the perceived cost of metering, or skepticism about the possible savings. Yet benchmarking opens the door for companies to take advantage of the most economic and effective near-term solution for driving down emissions and energy demand. If wanting to minimise capital investment, companies can choose to use temporary metering, a service Northmore Gordon provides.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Globally, there is a growing trend of implementing building energy codes and industrial energy efficiency standards. For instance, Singapore will require all chilled water systems over 300RT in capacity to meet an energy efficiency standard. Therefore, companies that engage in utility benchmarking and energy efficiency programs will insulate themselves from transition risks associated with this growing regulatory trend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-taking-a-comprehensive-approach\"><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Taking a Comprehensive Approach<\/span><\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is vital to use a certified energy management team to measure performance accurately and help drive a comprehensive strategy.
