Energy Benchmarking and Best Practices
The Canadian Industry Program for Energy Conservation (CIPEC), sponsored by Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) has developed a benchmarking and best practices program for Canada's industrial sectors. The program is designed to help industry achieve significant energy efficiency gains.
Energy benchmarking involves the development of quantitative and qualitative indicators through the collection and analysis of energy-related data and energy management practices. CIPEC, in collaboration with its association partners, has established indicators to enable industrial companies to compare their energy use, greenhouse gas emissions and practices with similar operations. These indicators can help guide industry toward achieving greater energy efficiency by identifying energy cost-saving opportunities for each industrial sector.
To find out more about the CIPEC benchmarking initiative, contact your CIPEC sector task force officer or Vaughn Munroe,P.Eng., Chief, Engineering Research and Technical Group, Industrial Programs Division, at (613) 947-1594 or by Email.
