Hydrogen, nuclear, carbon capture storage… we are looking for the right way to the ecological transition. To get there, the key things to take care of are: optimising consumption, analysing the efficiency of production processes and anticipating energy and economically unfavourable events or situations.
The energy manager can make his contribution to the transition by going back to the origins of his role: he must be a “technician responsible for the conservation and rational use of energy”, optimising consumption, analysing the efficiency of production processes and anticipating energetically and economically unfavourable events or situations.
However, to be truly effective, these actions need concrete support provided by investments and incentives. It is also essential to have company partners who can follow the entire process and support the client company in the best possible way, even with turnkey interventions, throughout the entire project.
The real day-to-day challenge for the energy manager lies in harnessing his or her transversal skills, promoting greater energy awareness in all departments, developing a cross-functional teamwork within the organisation, to enhance a crucial job, today more than ever.
