The document provides information about the European Energy Manager training program. It discusses the benefits of becoming an energy manager, such as reducing energy costs and carbon footprint. The training program teaches management and engineering skills over 19 days and provides access to an online forum. Participants develop energy saving projects for their companies. Successful projects can save an average of 750 MWh and $40,000 per year while paying back investments in 3-4 years. The certification is valid for 3 years and helps energy managers save energy and money at their workplaces.

18. Target group
EUREM Energy Manager Candidates
The energy manager must be a senior manager, who has access to the board, to
identify, design, implement and monitor energy efficiency measures in the
context of a company’s sustainable energy policy. Company culture in the region
makes it some times difficult, if not impossible, for non-senior management staff
to influence decisions.
The role of an energy manager is to create a culture within an organization with
the assistance of employees in all levels, and thereby make energy efficiency a
regular business practice.
Typically EM are Plant- / Utility Managers or Process- / Maintenance Engineers,
pro-active respected personalities with adequate technical background
