Energy cost is significant in many of the manufacturing activities. The efficiency of energy use is quiet low as there are substantial visible and hidden losses. Visible losses can be easily identified and corrective action can be taken. However hidden and indirect losses form a sizeable portion of the losses. Identifying these losses is not easy and requires an integrated approach which includes thorough study of process, operations and their interactions with energy use. Industries across sectors have implemented lean management principles which target various wastes occurring in the plant. This paper discusses case studies which highlight the exploitation of lean tools as a means for unearthing hidden energy saving potential that often go unnoticed. In addition to the energy savings which results in improved profits and competitiveness, the approach also aids the industry to pursue a path of sustainable manufacturing.

Building the early-warning system of energy conservation can help enterprises to improve the energy information management, control energy consumption, forecast and analysis the enterprises overall energy trends;and provide the basis for enterprises to further find the potential problems, to explore the energy-saving potential sites and to formulate the scientific and effective energy-saving programs. The study is mainly from three aspects:the choice of the early-warning objects and the practice of the early-warning system. Based on the existed research, this article summarize the limitations of the domestic research. . In order to provide reference and inspiration for the follow-up study.

The application of frequency conversion technique in secondary pump and variable flow system is expounded in this essay. In the view of energy conservation, the secondary frequency conversion pump in variable flow system is in favor of energy conservation due to its variability on power according to the end load change, the principle of frequency conversion pump is also analysed. Combined with actual project case, he energy saving potential of secondary pump and variable flow system is discussed.

To discuss the technical and economic problems that emerges in building energy efficiency reform of existing residential building in Wuhan, the energy comsumption of typical existing buildings is calculated using the Dest-h energy consumption simulation software before and after energy conservation transformation. The energy saving potential of exterior window transformation is analyzed and the economy of multiple solutions on the grounds of the market cost is discussed. Finally, taking both energy conservation efficiency and economy into consideration, the optimal and supplementary scheme of exterior window retrofitting for residential buildings in Wuhan is obtained.
