Assessing capital investment on energy improvement projects from a global energy management perspective: a tri-generation case study
Coffey, Ronan; Coakley, Daniel; Sterling, Raymond; Finnerty, Noel; McDonagh, Shane; Keane, Marcus M. (NUI Galway, 2016)For multi-national companies, assessment of energy improvement projects across a global site-base requires a thorough understanding of the driving factors affecting energy consumption on each site. Traditionally, assessment ... -
Defining corporate energy policy and strategy to achieve carbon emissions reduction in non-energy intensive multi-site industrial organisations
Finnerty, Noel; Contreras, Sergio; Sterling, Raymond; Coakley, Daniel; Keane, Marcus M. (University of Maribor Press, 2017-07-05)Research on the components and characteristics of long-term energy policy and strategies in large organisations is limited. Non-energy intensive multinationals do not face the environmental regulations required by their ... -
