Many organizations have implemented both energy management and greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reduction goals.

This webinar session will focus on both topics and on the ways that they are interrelated. We will look at how a good energy management program will help you to meet your GHG emission reduction goals. We will provide specific examples of energy improvement projects, their savings, and the related GHG emission reductions.

The webinars will also tie in aspects of the ISO 50001 energy management standard, the 50001 Ready energy management program, and the new ISO 50100 decarbonization standard. The best ways to manage and reduce your GHG emissions is to continually improve your energy performance.

IHEA's Sustainability and Energy Management webinar series focuses on carbon producing heating processes and provide methods to optimize their efficiency and thereby reduce their carbon emission intensity. Additionally, these webinars cover the various scopes of carbon emissions and the methods to determine your site, or specific equipment, carbon footprint. The available DOE tools and other resources for determining and reducing your carbon footprint will be presented. Overall, this webinar series gives the attendees an excellent overview of carbon emissions, how to determine them, and how to reduce them.  Learn more about IHEA's Sustainability Initiatives by clicking here.
