The publishing of the seventh edition of the Energy Management Handbook coincides with a new awareness for applying energy efficient technologies. The Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007, the growing concern for global warming, and the spiraling oil prices have again placed energy management at the forefront. The energy management journey began with the founding of the Association of Energy Engineers (AEE) more than 30 years ago. The Association of Energy Engineers is a non profit professional society which provides continuing education programs to the energy efficiency community. During this period, the Association of Energy Engineers has grown to 8500 members in 77 countries. No other publication has been as influential in defining the energy management profession. Like the Association of Energy Engineers, the Energy Management Handbook was originally launched in the late 1970s. In 1981 the Association of Energy Engineers started its most successful program, the Certified Energy Manager (CEM). To date, over 6500 professionals
have been recognized as CEMs. The Energy Management Handbook has served as the official reference book for the CEM program. Today, the energy efficiency industry is poised for new growth, and the Energy Management Handbook is more important than ever before. Facility managers today must deal with rising energy costs. For example, June 2008 oil prices leapt above $140 a barrel, setting a record high. The Energy Management Handbook offers real solutions to reduce energy costs by utilizing the latest energy efficient technologies and alternative energy strategies, as well as incorporating principles of green buildings and sustainable design. The seventh edition of the Energy Management Handbook will continue to be the indispensable reference required to assist energy managers meet the challenges ahead.
