As a facility manager, why should you improve the energy efficiency of your facility?

Here are some useful arguments if you need to argue the business case: Economic: Energy is not a fixed cost – being more efficient can help you meet your cost targets. A number of energy efficiency measures are available which are simple to implement and have a good payback time. Security: Global energy prices are rising as demand outstrips conventional supply, improving energy efficiency now will give you first mover advantage, and pay dividends in the future by ensuring your operational security. Environmental: Saving fossil fuel energy cuts the greenhouse gas emissions associated with business operations, helps demonstrate green credentials to UN’s shareholders, and helps to meet ISO14001 commitments.
