Statistics show that energy is one of the highest operating costs in a manufacturing enterprise. So, improving energy efficiency can lead to a significant increase in profits and reduce the impact of the enterprise on the environment. To increase the performance of energy efficiency activities, it is necessary to implement an energy management system. One of the components of this system is energy monitoring, which, in turn, is based on the periodic collection and analysis of data to assess the state of the monitoring objects in terms of energy efficiency. In this paper, the role and place of energy monitoring in the energy management system of an industrial enterprise are noted. The paper proposes the concept of creating energy monitoring system in industrial companies, which is based on the combination of a monitoring system based on specific energy consumption, and usage of group energy characteristics of production facilities. Implementing such energy monitoring systems will allow to conduct operational control of energy efficiency of production facilities by creating individual systems for monitoring energy efficiency, as well as successfully carry out such monitoring at the enterprise and its subdivisions over longer periods of time using specific energy consumption indicators. It also provides general guidelines for conducting energy monitoring. These guidelines were formed based on the results of studying various methods and scientific publications in the field of energy monitoring, as well as on the basis of practical experience in the development and implementation of energy management systems. Particular attention is paid to the issues of processing and analysis of information about the objects of energy monitoring of industrial enterprises. The practical application of the concept of creating energy monitoring systems envisages gradual improvement of the existing monitoring system based on the specific energy consumption, which will be further completely replaced with individual energy efficiency monitoring systems.

The article devoted an adaptation of economical and mathematical models, existing in the theory of network planning and management for determination of time reserves, with the help of which both labour and material, as well as financial resources can be efficiently and rationally allocated within the set of interrelated works. The proposed approach can be used in the process of development of measures to increase the energy efficiency rate, which will involve intensification of innovation activities, more complete implementation of social and economic potential of business entities and local communities.

Nusa Lembongan is currently one of the favorite tourist attractions among foreign and domestic tourists because of its pristine natural beauty. As one of the areas in Klungkung Regency, Bali Nusa Penida also provides accommodation in both star and non-star hotels, villas, bungalows, and homestays. This study aims to determine the implementation of the green hotel concept in Nusa Lembongan Bali. Data was collected by distributing questionnaires to 47 accommodations in Nusa Lembongan by means of purposive sampling. The results of the study show the following: hotel perceptions and assessments of environmental policies and actions (4.23), use of environmentally friendly products (4.39), collaboration with local communities and organizations (4.27), resource development (3.91) , solid waste treatment system (3.99), energy efficiency (3.96), efficiency and water quality (3.97).

For widely used in practice communication radio systems based on OFDM signals, the known disadvantages are both a high value of PAPR (leading to a decrease in energy efficiency) and a rela-tively low structural hiding of modulation types. The work aim is to develop a procedure for multi-criteria synthesis of multi-position OFDM radio signals to increase the energy efficiency and structur-al hiding of communication radio systems. At the first stage, the combined quality criterion includes particular criteria that are responsible for increasing the noise immunity to additive «white» Gaussian noise and ensuring the maximization of the structural hiding of the generated signal. The application of the last criterion in radio monitoring systems led to a significant increase in bit error rate from the set of detectors for the known types of signals (up to values of more than 30 %). The proposed two-stage procedure for multi-criteria synthesis of OFDM radio signals additionally provides a gain in energy efficiency (according to the CCDF level ) by more than 0.9 dB and 6.6 dB, respective-ly, compared to the case of using the known reducing PAPR technique PTS (Partial transmit sequence) and without using any method to improve the energy efficiency of OFDM signals.
