Isra-Mart srl: Free BusinessGreen web seminar to address climbing corporate energy bills

www.isra-mart.com

Scottish Power's recent announcement that it is to increase its domestic energy tariffs is expected to spark a flurry of price increases from the rest of the Big Six, and concerns are mounting that corporate customers will face a similar hike in energy bills over the coming months.

So what, if anything, can businesses do to bring spiraling energy costs under control?

Thankfully, the failure of many businesses to introduce an effective and comprehensive energy management strategy means that the vast majority of firms have the potential to deliver significant cuts in their energy use and their carbon emissions by embracing a relatively simple package of management techniques and energy efficient technologies.

To help executives identify the steps that can help their business tackle rising energy bills BusinessGreen will host a free interactive web seminar at 3pm on July 20, offering invaluable guidance to executives on how to develop an effective enterprise energy management strategy.

Hosted by BusinessGreen editor James Murray in association with environmental and energy management software provider Hara and energy and environmental consultancy AEA, the web seminar will feature presentations and case studies from our specially selected expert panel.

The presentations will explore the business case for improved energy management and demonstrate the techniques and technologies firms are using to effectively curb their energy costs.

Topics addressed include:

• Taking an enterprise-wide approach to energy management, from board-level investment decisions to facilities-level execution
• Basic principles of effective enterprise energy management
• Benefits of a detailed business case for improved energy management

The 45-minute broadcast will be ideally suited to sustainability, energy and facilities managers, as well as financial directors, CFOs and green executives keen to curb their energy costs.

The webinar also feature a number of detailed case studies and an interactive question and answer session during which the online audience will be able to ask questions of our expert panel.
