| Abstract |
Efficient energy management has a significant impact on the achievement of the sustainable development goals; therefore it has become a challenge for nations and all sectors of the economy, who over the last decades have advanced in the creation of methodologies to evaluate and improve it, however, it is remarkable that, in countries with emerging economies, this practice is still incipient, particularly at the business level where its scarce implementation stands out. After reviewing the available literature on methodologies for evaluating efficient energy management it is evident that each one presents structures and methods of measurement with different degrees of complexity, therefore, it is necessary to consolidate the information available on them, describing their components and analysing their convergences and divergences in such a way that the factors that have the greatest impact on the efficient management of energy can be extracted. This paper provides a systematic review of the literature on energy management measurement methodologies, presenting a characterization of the components of each such as; the levels or degrees of compliance they propose and the differential approaches that they possess, all this in order to contribute to the line of research and lay the foundations for the updating of existing measurement methods. Likewise, the structure that supports the efficient management of energy in Colombia is presented in general features, and the actions that have been taken to bring it to the organizational level. |
