Rising energy costs and increasingly required flexibility in production cause the owners of metallurgical production facilities to change views of evaluation and optimization of energy consumption. Adequate energy management in line with ISO 50001 may help reduce the high cost pressure during the production process. Jens Hundrieser and Oliver Seifert [1]: "Provided an Emis system (energy monitoring information system) has been implemented correctly and suitable measures have been taken, savings of 5 to 20% are typical, with 8% being realistic. The period of amortization of these systems is normally one to two years." SMS Siemag offers the X-Pact~R Energy Advisor which is an energy data management system beyond mere monitoring and allows the plant owners energy-saving production.
