BALTIMORE, MD., Apr.
10, 2008 /Energy Pathfinder/ --
A new, business-oriented text describes the risks and
rewards of modern industrial energy use. Published by
Energy Pathfinder, The Industrial Energy Harvest is the
culmination of a ten-year study of the energy management
challenges encountered by manufacturing facilities.
Written for non-technical business and policy leaders,
this book provides unprecedented insight on the
financial and organizational aspects of energy cost
control.
“Most industrial energy literature offers ‘how-to’
information for engineers,” says the book’s author,
Christopher Russell. “The Industrial Energy Harvest may
be the first book written especially for industry’s top
managers—people who are focused on business
performance.” Short, punchy chapters examine the
benefits, hurdles, and strategies for energy cost
control. Readers will be able to understand what it
takes to create an energy-smart organization.
At the heart of The Industrial Energy Harvest is the
message that energy is wealth. This encourages business
leaders to manage fuels and electricity with techniques
similar to those used for handling cash or currency. As
a corporate strategy, energy management allows energy to
be invested, preserved, and ultimately positioned to
create wealth.
The Industrial Energy Harvest is being distributed by
Xcel Energy of Minnesota to key contacts at over 100 of
its industrial customers. “Efficient resource use
benefits Xcel Energy as well as our customers,” says
Tamara Gunderzik, product portfolio manager for Xcel
Energy. “We chose to present The Industrial Energy
Harvest to our industrial customers’ leadership because
of the clear business case that it presents for energy
efficiency.”
“Energy markets evolve faster than most industrial
organizations can adapt to those changes,” says Russell.
“Many companies struggle with energy waste simply
because organizational inertia prevents change.
Meanwhile, some forward-thinking manufacturers are
changing the way they use energy, and they’re harvesting
greater productivity and expense savings as a result.
This book explains how it’s done.”
