N2 - Energy management is a crucial aspect to global sustainability. Multinational Manufacturing Corporations' (MMC's) utilise a large amount of energy, making energy optimisation a priority. The ability to evaluate MMC's total energy utilisation effectively and efficiently is a challenge. This research focuses on holistically modelling the business energy systems of MMC's by adopting a business process centric approach. MMC's conduct business based on global or regional business processes depending on the function, global/regional functional enablement. The agile energy model proposed in this research integrates key knowledge areas of energy assessment, business management, business processes and system engineering, to deliver a comprehensive simulation toolset for energy quantification, evaluation and optimisation.
