Improving energy efficiency has never been higher up the business agenda. Rising fuel prices mean that reducing energy use makes economic sense, while increasingly-compelling research about climate change means that it makes social and environmental sense, too.
In response to these trends, a new set of energy management standards are being developed to provide organizations with a roadmap for ensuring that their energy use is as efficient as possible.
