ABSTRACT

Organizations that provide facility and equipment maintenance would like to advertise or be able to tell their client that they save energy while providing their maintenance. They were hesitant until energy centered maintenance (ECM) came along. ECM shows a direct relationship between reducing energy consumption and performing maintenance tasks. In 2015, Fadi Alshakhshir developed and designed a detailed process of implementation of the ECM model. The aim of the model is to introduce new maintenance tasks to all energy critical equipment to ensure that it is functioning efficiently and delivering its intended function. Practical maintenance activities and measures that require very minimal cost or that may not require any investment can be useful measures of the energy centered maintenance program and the operation and maintenance regime. The proper execution of energy centered maintenance model should be delivered via proper job plans that are defined by the equipment’s preventive and predictive maintenance needs.
