Energy efficiency according to NC ISO 50001 in the Santiago de Cuba Rum Factory

Abstract

The energy review carried out at Ronera Santiago de Cuba, taking into account the requirements of the NC-ISO 50001: "Energy Management System" based on a continuous improvement cycle, using tools and techniques such as: work with experts, energy diagnostics, document review, tools of the Total and Efficient Energy Management Technology (TGTEE). From the detailed analysis of the energy consumption structure, the areas of significant use, each process, each equipment, each of the systems, as well as the instrumentation, it was possible to achieve the results of the energy planning process by determining the energy baseline as a comparative reference, the energy performance indicators, as well as the formulation of objectives and action plans according to the entity's energy policy. This allowed to evaluate the savings potentials, as well as the environmental impact and energy cost in the entity.
