Connor highlights how energy analysis help identify inefficiencies and prioritise improvements, and how decentralising reduces energy losses and supports modular designs. He also discusses the importance of training staff to understand how to use efficient technologies correctly in a total system, and of partnering with the right experts about functionality to get consultative support of solutions, not of products.

He concludes by saying that energy efficiency is not a one-time project; optimise continuously to improve your product-life-cycle, gross margins and market position.
