The U.S. Dept. of Energy, Environmental Protection Agency, and Emerson Process Management, among others, offer a series of white papers, guides and other resources.
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) and DoE's Energy Star strategies for commercial buildings and plants includes many guidelines, calculators, benchmarks and other tools, such as Energy Star's PortfolioManager online energy management and tracking application. They're available here.
The ISO 50001 energy management standard helps users save money as well as conserve resources and tackle climate change. ISO 50001 supports organizations in all sectors to use energy more efficiently by developing an energy management system (EMS). It's located here.
Emerson Process Experts blog has a link to its downloadable, 132-page "Sustainable Energy Efficiency User Guide." It covers core operations, energy management information systems, target setting and performance reviews, auditing and improvement projects, measuring and controlling energy streams, and common energy tools and techniques. The post and link are here.
"Energy Management and Efficiency for the Process Industries," edited by Alan Rossitter and Beth Jones, is a new, 400-page book that details all the current issues, technologies and methods for achieving efficiency in the process field. A 28-page preview is availabe here. Also, Rossiter presents many of his concepts in a 10-minute AIChE Academy video, "Industrial Energy Management and Efficiency."
A 90-page look at process control through the eyes of the U.S. Dept. of Energy (DoE) is contained in "Assessment Study on Sensors and Automation in the Industries of the Future: Reports on Industrial Controls, Information Processing, Automation and Robotics," submitted in November 2004 to DoE's Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy program. It's found here.
