How the manufacturing industry of Japan succeed in the energy conservation after the Oil Crisis? 1. International cost competitiveness enforced enterprises to do QC activity, Kaizen by small group activities, and TQM Energy conservation investment and technological innovation. 2. Regulation measures by Government Energy Conservation Law 3. Support and subsidy system by Government tax, subsidy, soft lone

Mutual effect, synergy effect

Energy conservation is to minimize energy loss and to maximize energy efficiency at energy utilizing site.
ECCJ 4

Energy Conservation Philosophy Energy Conservation should be achieved at on-site. Energy Conservation is to be practical and steady activities.

Energy audit is one of very effective tools for energy conservation activity in a factory. 5.1 Objectives: Fact-finding for Energy loss or Management,
study of causes & measures, and advice for improvement

< Auditing items >

Management Energy loss
organization, target, standard, operation-manual, maintenance, measurement, record, etc. heat, steam, electricity, compressed air, etc., idling time, shut-down time, etc.

Energy efficiency

energy unit consumption, total energy efficiency etc. --- by equipment, by line, by factory
ECCJ 16
