What is Contract Energy Management (CEM)?
Normally a CEM type contract sees a company taking responsibility for the generation of on-site energy, including investment in and maintenance of new or existing plant. Contracts may also include an element of guaranteed performance. Although widely used in industrial and larger commercial applications e.g. hospitals, contract energy management is also applicable to a much wider range of buildings. In addition many companies are also offering energy management contracts covering aspects of building’s services such as BEMS systems or aM&T.
