  7. Abstract:
  8. Reviewing trends of energy consumption in the world reveals that sooner or later energy resources will be depleted. This concerning rate of consumption has brought about more greenhouse gases (GHG) emission influencing deleteriously on environment and climate. Human has continued energy consumption to maintain and improve the quality of his life through industrial production. Industry as a significant energy user owns considerable contribution to this consumption. Several attempts have been carried out to develop energy management systems in order to improve the energy efficiency of industrial sectors. Whilst they are comprehensive and could be applied to any sector, there is lack of concentration on the aspects of a specific industrial production and management. They are too general to be applicable for a sector such as dairy production. In the current research, focusing on dairy industry, as one of the major energy consumers in industry sector, we develop an applied energy management model which is customized and enriched according to the different aspects of a dairy production corporation. The proposed model which is named as “Dairy Energy Management System” (DEMS) is presented in three levels including five stages of "management involvement and commitment", "planning", "implementation and operation", "evaluation" and "sustain" and three domains of "management ", "technical" and "organizational"
