Abstract

The threat of global warming, environmental instibality and the possible use of green or carbon taxes on fossil fuels has increased the need for energy efficiency. Energy Conservation is now recognised as one of the easiest and most cost-effective ways of limiting or reducing CO2 emissions. Large UK companies are now assessing how much CO2 they dissipate to the environment and reviewing strategies to reduce this either in response to consumer demand or as a corporate policy decision. Computer-based information systems already exist to monitor and report on fluctuations in energy consumption. These are called Monitoring and Targeting (M & T) systems. This paper explains what M & T systems are and how they are being extended to cover reporting on corporate fuel-based CO2 emissions to help provide an integrated energy and environmental-management information system.
