Abstract

With the rapid development of “The Belt and Road Initiative”, China has made many improvements in cutting overcapacity and increasing the energy efficiency. As a result, the successful and effective practices of energy management and energy conservation and emission reduction of some Chinese enterprises can be beneficial for other countries along the Belt and Road to learn and use for reference. In this sense, this paper studies the enterprise energy management practice by studying and analyzing the example of Anyang Iron and Steel Enterprise. In the study, five subsystems including energy policy and objectives, energy management structure, consciousness of energy saving, energy information management and management practice in process level and three energy-saving methods consisting of technical method, managerial method and structural method are studied in details in order to understand the real situation of energy management practice in the iron and steel firm. Based on the above, it also summarizes ten useful industrial energy management principles. As a result, this study of energy management practice, on one hand, offsets the lack of literature review to some degree, on the other hand, it summaries the experience and principles of energy management in Anyang Iron and Steel Enterprise benefiting for other enterprises to learn from and make future improvements.
