Here is a deck comparing outcome, or performance based regulation, in several countries. This was presented in Melbourne, Australia for the Energy Networks Association.
The document discusses the development of human capacity for Ontario's green energy industry. It outlines Energhx's need for engineers and auditors as Green Energy Associates to work as system, design, and project engineers or energy auditors. The proposed training curriculum would provide compulsory and module-specific courses in design engineering, system networking, and project management. Upon completion, associates would be certified and remunerated based on personal and team sales and client/project management.
Key Steps and Success Factors in EPC ImplementationZAINI ABDUL WAHAB
The document outlines the key steps and criteria for successful energy performance contracting (EPC) projects. It discusses establishing the need for EPC, selecting an energy service company (ESCO), conducting an energy audit, developing an EPC contract, implementing savings measures, and measuring/verifying savings. Successful EPC requires proper evaluation of proposals, agreed upon baselines for energy use, and monitoring/verification of actual savings achieved against the baselines. Case studies show EPC can reduce energy bills by 10-35% through optimizing equipment and systems.
RuleML2015: Rule-based data transformations in electricity smart gridsRuleML
The systems that will control future electricity networks (also referred
to as Smart Grids) will be based on heterogeneous data models. Expressing transformation
rules between different Smart Grid data models in well-known rule
languages – such as Semantic Web Rule Language (SWRL) and Jena Rule Language
(JRL) – will improve interoperability in this domain. Rules expressed in
these languages can be easily reused in different applications, since they can be
processed by freely available Semantic Web reasoners. In this way, it is possible
to integrate heterogeneous Smart Grid systems without using costly ad-hoc
converters. This paper presents a solution that leverages SWRL and JRL transformation
rules to resolve existing mismatches between two of the most widely
accepted standard data models in the Smart Grids.
An energy management system using big data analytics can help lower energy prices for commercial microgrids. Sensors can be installed on lights and ATMs to monitor energy consumption data. By analyzing this data, issues like lights running during the day or AC units left on after hours can be identified and corrective actions taken to reduce consumption. Predictive analytics can also determine which lights may need replacing or use the most electricity. This solution helped one company save 25-30% on energy costs and lower overhead by 9.48% in just one year.

Commercialising Grid-Scale Energy Storage Congress 2015 - Programme BrochureAurore Colella
After months of research with utilities across Europe involved in Energy Storage applications, a few things are clear-cut. Stakeholders want to:
- Cut through the technology hype
- Objectively assess the specific applications of grid-scale energy storage across the electricity supply chain
- And very importantly, hear commercial, business case-driven case studies to adopt and implement rather than reinvent the wheel.
For this reason, the Commercialising Grid-Scale Energy Storage Global Congress 2015, taking place in London on 25-26 November, has partnered up with leading European utilities, grid operators, the European Commission and other stakeholder groups to demonstrate and deliver actual results from pilot studies and the future road for commercialising energy storage applications across power generation, distribution and transmission.

There is no guarantee that installing an energy management system (EMS) will lead to a 30% reduction in energy consumption. The amount of energy savings realized from an EMS will depend on many factors:
- The size and type of facility/organization - Larger facilities with more energy use may see greater potential for savings. Manufacturing facilities tend to see higher savings than office buildings.
- Age and efficiency of existing equipment - Older, less efficient equipment and systems provide more opportunities for upgrades and retrofits that reduce energy use.
- Scope and capabilities of the EMS implemented - More advanced EMS that enable extensive monitoring, targeting, control and automation typically drive higher savings.
- Commitment to energy efficiency practices
EMA Energy Manager’s Guide to Building ControlsEMEX
The control of energy in non-domestic buildings is generally poor, despite the availability of a range of tried and tested systems incorporating both established and innovative technologies. Although the installation of HVAC zone controls, optimising controllers (for Wet Heating Systems) and lighting controls is encouraged by the building codes, their requirements are basic. As a result, specifications are often limited to the minimum requirements, and superior technologies, such as pre-programmed packaged Building Energy Management Systems (BEMS) and Demand Control Ventilation (DCV), are ignored.
The U.S. power sector has evolved drastically. New goals for resilient, clean, affordable, and safe electricity has transitioned the sector away from cost of service regulation and toward performance-based regulation (PBR). PBR changes the central question from "did we pay the right amount for what we got?" to instead, "Are we paying the right amount for what we want?". With PBR, rather than revenue increasing as utility investment increases, revenue increases as performance improves. There are a handful of ways to design PBR well, many of which are embodied in examples from utilities in Illinois and the UK.
IREMS is an energy management system that optimally manages generators, loads, and storage units in a microgrid.

Early engagement in automation leads to lower costs, shorter schedules, and more predictable performance. This is achieved through techniques like early design collaboration, transformational automation approaches, lean project execution practices, standardization, and information management leveraging industry expertise. Case studies show how automation solutions have helped customers reduce costs, increase availability and productivity, lower emissions and energy usage, and improve safety. The document promotes Emerson's automation capabilities and localization in Russia to help customers achieve world-class operational results.
Lifting the Corporate Veil. Power Point Presentationseri bangash
"Lifting the Corporate Veil" is a legal concept that refers to the judicial act of disregarding the separate legal personality of a corporation or limited liability company (LLC). Normally, a corporation is considered a legal entity separate from its shareholders or members, meaning that the personal assets of shareholders or members are protected from the liabilities of the corporation. However, there are certain situations where courts may decide to "pierce" or "lift" the corporate veil, holding shareholders or members personally liable for the debts or actions of the corporation.
Here are some common scenarios in which courts might lift the corporate veil:
Fraud or Illegality: If shareholders or members use the corporate structure to perpetrate fraud, evade legal obligations, or engage in illegal activities, courts may disregard the corporate entity and hold those individuals personally liable.
Undercapitalization: If a corporation is formed with insufficient capital to conduct its intended business and meet its foreseeable liabilities, and this lack of capitalization results in harm to creditors or other parties, courts may lift the corporate veil to hold shareholders or members liable.
Failure to Observe Corporate Formalities: Corporations and LLCs are required to observe certain formalities, such as holding regular meetings, maintaining separate financial records, and avoiding commingling of personal and corporate assets. If these formalities are not observed and the corporate structure is used as a mere façade, courts may disregard the corporate entity.
Alter Ego: If there is such a unity of interest and ownership between the corporation and its shareholders or members that the separate personalities of the corporation and the individuals no longer exist, courts may treat the corporation as the alter ego of its owners and hold them personally liable.
Group Enterprises: In some cases, where multiple corporations are closely related or form part of a single economic unit, courts may pierce the corporate veil to achieve equity, particularly if one corporation's actions harm creditors or other stakeholders and the corporate structure is being used to shield culpable parties from liability.
