 Managing your company's energy use, risk and expensesDec 15, 2009
By Rolf Dobelli
"getAbstract"
Since the first oil embargo in 1973, energy prices have increased and become more volatile, creating the corporate need for better financial tools to evaluate energy costs. Enter energy economist Jerry Jackson, developer of the "Energy Budgets at Risk" (EBaR) analysis that technically oriented managers can use to make sharper decisions about how and when to upgrade systems to achieve energy efficiency. EBaR is a trademarked cost and risk analysis tool, and Jackson explains it (and, in truth, promotes it) clearly. Although his book is a bit repetitive and loosely organized, it contains all the formulas, graphs and rationales needed to explain EBaR's statistical approach. getAbstract recommends this to math-minded managers who seek new ways to assess and control their organizations' energy costs - and to help the planet along the way.

I found this book to be very well written. It is both interesting and informative. I plan to apply the information I learned in my energy consulting work. While energy savings reduces our carbon footprint, it must also be financially appealing to gain universal acceptance. The principals taught in this book should help management better understand the financial benefits of energy conservation.
