Energy inefficiency is still prevalent in most established industries today, costing up to 30% of revenue in both industrial and manufacturing. This Introduction to Energy Efficiency in Industrial Systems Course aims to educate and equip you with the correct energy management practices. Our course teaches you energy usage and savings opportunities with electric motors, compressed air, steam, and refrigeration.
A key part of an ISO 50001:2018 Energy Management System in an industrial facility is the ability to be able to develop Energy Performance Indicators (EnPIs) for Significant Energy Uses (SEUs). By taking this course you’ll have a better idea as to how key industrial systems use energy, and the savings opportunities. This knowledge can be vital when setting up an Energy Management System in accordance with ISO50001, and help you in the identification of SEUs, which in turn can help in the establishment of your energy performance targets.
This Introduction to Energy Efficiency in Industrial Systems course is a 31-step or 15-hour training program with an assessment-based certificate (completion and passing the Energy Efficiency in Industrial Energy Systems Course’s tests are required to obtain a Sustemy Certificate).
This introduces you to the fundamentals of the industrial sector’s energy-using equipment and systems:
Despite the extensivity of these systems, anyone can still identify areas of energy wastage and opportunities by following a structured process. Our Introduction to Energy Efficiency in Industrial Systems course provides you with this process, allowing you to assess and optimize most organizations’ equipment and systems.

This course provides a good balance of introductory information and technical information on very complicated subjects which individually are highly specialized subjects. Provided great information to identify energy savings without getting too technical.
The four systems that account for the bulk of energy use in most industrial facilities are electric motors, compressed air systems, steam systems, and refrigeration equipment. Each has its own inefficiency patterns, assessment methods, and savings opportunities. This course covers all four in a consistent, structured sequence — so you come away with a working understanding of each system and how to approach it in the field.
A systematic approach starts with mapping how energy flows through a facility using tools like Sankey diagrams — which make it immediately visible where energy is being lost or wasted. From there, you assess each major system against its theoretical efficiency, identify the gap, and prioritise interventions using the energy efficiency hierarchy. This course teaches that process across all four major industrial systems.
A Sankey diagram is a visual tool that maps energy flows through a system, with the width of each arrow proportional to the quantity of energy it represents. It makes energy losses immediately visible and helps auditors prioritise where to focus their analysis. This course introduces Sankey diagrams as a core tool for systematically identifying energy inefficiencies in industrial facilities.
Estimates vary by facility type and condition, but energy inefficiency in industrial and manufacturing operations is commonly cited as costing up to 30% of revenue. In practice, the savings achievable in any given facility depend on the age and condition of equipment, how well systems are currently controlled, and how systematically savings opportunities have been identified and implemented. This course gives you the analytical tools to make that assessment accurately.
The energy efficiency hierarchy is a structured approach to prioritising energy interventions — starting with reducing demand, then improving system efficiency, before considering equipment replacement or renewable energy. Applying it at a systems level means looking at how a compressed air system, for example, operates as a whole before recommending a new compressor. This course covers how to apply the hierarchy across industrial systems so your recommendations are prioritised by impact and cost-effectiveness.
