Abstract
This paper discusses the aspects to be considered in the
development of key performance indicators (KPI) for the
management of energy efficiency at a corporate level in
the pulp and paper industry. The term 'combined approach'
refers to linking energy efficiency monitoring with
business strategy and combining technology, operation and
process integration perspectives into the development of
the KPIs. We address the tasks, methodological issues and
setting of objectives related to energy efficiency
monitoring. A case study demonstrating the use of the
KPIs for fault detection and the indication of
operational improvement and process integration
opportunities is presented. In the case study, monitoring
is applied to the heating of process water in an
integrated thermomechanical pulp (TMP) and
papermaking line based on data from an existing mill. The
results encourage the use of process systems engineering
methods and tools for energy efficiency monitoring.
