To assist with the challenges of controlling heat and reducing energy consumption in industrial processes, CIET has created the Heat Integration of Industrial Processes (HIIP) course. This course introduces participants to the tools to manage heat release and supply cold streams that require heat while also meeting process energy performance targets. Over two days of training, participants gain a thorough understanding of optimizing heat transfer and improving energy efficiency in industrial operations. Through a combination of theoretical knowledge and practical applications, they learn how to efficiently integrate heat transfer systems into industrial processes, resulting in reduced energy consumption, increased efficiency, and minimized environmental impacts. Additionally, they discuss the use of process integration software tools to preview and monitor heat usage. Visit cietcanada.com to learn more about this course and to register (website link below)

The Certified Energy Manager (CEM®) certification is widely regarded as the leading designation in the energy management field. It is highly sought after by professionals who wish to establish their expertise in the industry or who require it as a prerequisite for a particular role or project. The CEM certification has been awarded to over 16,000 individuals in more than 40 countries, with over 4,500 of those certifications being delivered in Canada. This certification provides a multitude of advantages to professionals working in the energy efficiency industry. The five-day CEM training program is designed for professionals seeking a comprehensive understanding of effective energy management. The course covers technical, economic, and regulatory aspects of energy management. It provides a comprehensive forum through problem-solving activities to develop a broad understanding of the latest energy cost reduction techniques and strategies.

Although the justification of energy management (EM) projects may seem obvious to some people, many clients and colleagues may not be aware of the benefits. The ability to effectively communicate and demonstrate both the energy and non-energy benefits of projects or retrofits – from operational cost savings, to conservation, to reduced equipment maintenance – is key to selling EM projects. This one-day training program is designed as a hands-on workshop with innovative exercises. You will be introduced to communication and financial analysis concepts. Then, all participants prepare their own short proposals, and the day concludes with an analysis of one of the prepared proposals.

The Introduction to RETScreen® Expert course is intended for new users of the RETScreen® Expert software or individuals just starting to become involved in the analysis or management of how energy is used and user behaviour in buildings and facilities. This one-day course features both presentations from trainers as well as hands-on use of and exercises in the RETScreen® software. The day concludes with knowledge-based exercises. The RETScreen® Expert Software is an intelligent decision support tool that enables stakeholders to rapidly identify, assess, optimize, and track the performance of clean energy investments over the entire project life cycle.

The International Energy Agency states that, to meet international climate objectives, we need to reduce net greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions to below zero worldwide throughout the second half of this century. As a result, many governments and private companies have announced their ambitious GHG reduction targets in recent years, with some aiming to achieve carbon neutrality by 2030. To reach these targets in the medium and long terms, carbon neutrality strategies need to be developed to identify the measures that can be implemented in building portfolios and manufacturing facilities. This one-day training is intended for managers and professionals wishing to learn about the various strategies that serve to achieve carbon neutrality in their organizations.
