abbreviationStandard termEnergy

Energy management is the systematic tracking, control, and optimization of power consumption in a facility.

Energy management (EM) involves monitoring energy use and adjusting operations to improve efficiency and reduce costs. In industrial and commercial settings, an EM system integrates software and hardware to automate HVAC, lighting, and heavy machinery based on real-time pricing and demand limits. It is a core component of reducing peak load and participating in demand response programs.
