Industrial Thermal Energy Audit and Analysis (ITEA)
2024-12-16 - 2024-12-18
Up to 50% of industrial thermal energy input are finally lost as waste heat in exhaust gases, cooling water, heated surfaces and in products/byproducts (US-DoE). Thermal energy efficiency improvement typically offers among the biggest scope for energy cost saving in industry. By benchmarking process and equipment performances, identifying inefficiencies and implementing targeted measures involving optimization of operating parameters and equipment upgrades, significant cost savings and emission reduction can be achieved. Regular monitoring and maintenance of optimal operations ensure sustained energy cost savings, GHG emission reduction and compliance with regulations.

[PHYSICAL] - Concept and Procedure for the Establishment of an Energy Management System (EnMS)
2024-11-13 - 2024-11-14
Energy Management System Standards (EnMS) such as ISO 50001:2018 has been a globally proven tool for the systematic, efficient and sustainable management of energy use in an organisation. EnMS has enabled many organisations to achieve multiple bottom line benefits of reduced energy cost, minimised GHG emissions, improved profitability and enhanced its public image through effective environmental and social governance (ESG). This workshop is designed to empower organisations to establish and implement the ISO 50001:2018 Energy Management System Standards (EnMS) as an integral part of a company’s ESG initiative.

COPE-BEST WORKSHOP 4: Energy & Emissions Management (E2M) Toward Net Zero
2024-10-11 09:00 - 17:00
Almost eighty percent of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions is contributed by fossil fuel energy use for power generation, industry, transport and buildings sectors*. Solutions to mitigate and reduce GHG to pave the way toward Net Zero Emissions (NZE) must therefore address sustainable energy generation, utilisation and management as the top priorities, apart from management of waste, Agriculture, Forestry and Land Use (AFOLU).
This Community of Practice on Energy Sustainability (COPE-BEST 2024) Workshop on Integrated Energy and Emission Management (E2M) aims to mobilise the energy sustainability community of practice to collaboratively address the grand challenges of climate change through the synergy best practices and innovations in energy sustainability and GHG emission management.

COPE-BEST WORKSHOP 3: Maximising Industrial Energy Efficiency Using Pinch Analysis
2024-10-11 09:00 - 17:00
Numerous successful industrial applications worldwide including the project experiences of Optimal Systems Engineering show that implementation of Pinch Analysis typically enable industries to maximise energy efficiency and cost savings, often resulting in attractive payback period of less than three years.
This workshop aims to equip participants with the competency to apply the Pinch Analysis techniques and tools to target, design and retrofit energy systems, analyse thermal energy losses from the processes, evaluate options to improve energy recovery and analyse energy and cost saving potentials. Toward this end, participants will be trained to perform calculations, use spreadsheet and also be introduced to our proprietary Optimal Heat software. Additionally, the workshop will provide key guiding principles for retrofit of industrial energy recovery system to maximise energy efficiency and minimise energy cost.

COPE-BEST WORKSHOP 2: City-Scale GHG Accounting & Reporting Based on Global GHG Protocol for Cities (GPC)
2024-10-10 09:00 - 17:00
Cities and communities are the home for over half of the global population, and account for around 75% of global energy-related greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Strategising mitigation actions at cities is crucial to combat global climate change but can’t be done without first measuring the city’s GHG emissions. The Global Protocol for Community-Scale Greenhouse Gas Emission Inventories (GPC) provides a standardised framework for cities and local governments to assess and report emissions within their geographic boundaries. Join our workshop on accounting city scale GHG emissions with a 2-in-1 package of intensive workshop and demonstration of digital templated tools for a more engaging hands-on learning!
This workshop enables participants to identify and quantify emissions from various community activities based on the GPC standard, including energy generation and use, public and private transportation, daily waste disposal, industry activities, as well as agriculture, forestry and land-use activities. Afraid of messy calculations? Worry no more as we will also demonstrate how to use the City Inventory Reporting and Information System (CIRIS), a free and easy-to-use Excel-based tool tailored in compliance to GPC, to simplify GHG monitoring and reporting for cities. Let us shed some light on your way to a strategised monitoring and communicating of GHG inventory between cities, which requires integrated commitment among various sectors. Register today and join our workshop to start developing GHG inventory for your city!
