Based on the Japanese “EC Guideline”, India is currently formulating its Indian version for the Indian industrial sector. We held a workshop for the main purpose of having experts review a working draft prepared at the end of December. Through active discussions at a review meeting with Japanese experts, effective output was obtained toward finalization of the draft. A workshop program also included a visit to a Japanese corporation known for excellent energy management, practical work to prepare an EM Manual based on the EC Guideline, and so on.
