SCEM-P: WSQ Energy Recovery & Reuse

admin — Wed, 10 May 2023 10:05:43 +0000

Being able to recover and reuse energy is a major part of optimising energy management and enhancing environmental performance. Learners will need to know fundamental practices such as the recovery and reuse of thermal energy using pinch analysis and the recovery of heat at low temperatures to manage and improve energy consuming units and processes. They will also need to know industry best practices or systematic procedures in energy management and environmental performance of energy systems.

SCEM-P: WSQ Steam & Compressed Air Systems

admin — Wed, 10 May 2023 10:04:28 +0000

Steam and compressed air systems within industrial plants/facilities use up a significant amount of energy.

Effective facility maintenance should include the efficient use of energy where energy wastage and energy consumption are significantly reduced.

Learners attending the course will learn about the functions of the various components in steam and compressed air systems, heat and mass transfer analysis, potential for heat recovery, influence of different variables on energy optimisation, as well as energy efficient designs.

SCEM-P: WSQ Integrative Design for Energy Efficiency

admin — Wed, 10 May 2023 10:00:29 +0000

Higher order principles of sustainability, methods to improve the design process and techniques for sustainability are important factors to increase the energy efficiency of buildings. To do so, it is essential to have a comprehensive understanding of integrative design concept, process and techniques for optimised energy management and enhanced environmental performance.

Learners attending the course will be equipped with knowledge and skills to adopt an integrative design to optimise energy management and enhance the environmental performance of buildings.

This course is one of five electives that learners may select under the Singapore Certified Energy Manager professional level programme.

SCEM-P: WSQ Combined Heat and Power Systems

admin — Wed, 10 May 2023 09:59:01 +0000

Large quantity of heat generated from electricity is wasted as it is discarded into the atmosphere or water bodies. Further energy is wasted upon the distribution of electricity to end users. Proper power plant operations management must account for the efficient generation of reliable and stable electricity where energy wastage is reduced, and thermal efficiencies improved. Learners attending the course will learn about Combined Heat and Power (CHP). CHP is an energy efficient technology which turns heat generated into useful thermal energy. The thermal energy generated can then be reuse for domestic and industrial purposes.

SCEM-P: WSQ Building Envelope and Lighting Systems

admin — Wed, 10 May 2023 09:57:36 +0000

Understanding the behaviours and qualities of light, its sources, and applications, will allow for the identification of areas for energy improvements in lighting schemes and designs. In addition, knowledge on facade designs and the use of materials affecting the solar heat gain of a building will help with the development of skills on energy load reduction and improved energy efficiency.

Learners attending the course will be equipped with knowledge and skills to optimise lighting schemes and designs to achieve energy-efficiency and sustainability for buildings.

SCEM-P: WSQ Air Conditioning and Mechanical Ventilation Systems

admin — Thu, 20 Apr 2023 03:32:23 +0000

Air Conditioning and Mechanical Ventilation (ACMV) Systems are a major energy consumer in hot humid Singapore. Energy managers need a basic knowledge of ACMV systems to run the ACMV plant and equipment. Besides meeting the objectives of providing thermal comfort to occupants and other requirements, the energy manager must have the skills to operate the plant in an energy efficient manner.
