Key Elements - Operations and Maintenance
	These elements evaluate operating procedures and work instructions, as well as maintenance practices. It is often possible to identify 5% to 10% or more of energy savings that can be achieved in buildings and industry simply by taking basic maintenance steps and properly commissioning control systems. Effective operations develop and utilise formal operating procedures and work instructions for energy efficiency that are integrated with overall system operating procedures. These ensure that the energy efficiency of plant is improved while optimising overall plant efficiency. Maintenance practices to minimise energy waste and maintain high efficiency in plant should be part of normal business practice. BACK
