To benefit small and medium industries
located in Arkansas, the Engineering Technology
Department at the University of Arkansas at Little
Rock (UALR) is currently developing an Interactive
Energy Management Tool (IEMT) for Arkansas
Companies. This tool is a web-based software
resource, which can be accessed from any remote
web-browser. The goal of the IEMT is to provide
users (industries) with customized recommendations
with regard to energy conservation based on their
specific inputs (data) to the software. In the interview
mode the software will guide the user through a set of
queries, in response to which the IEMT will make
specific recommendations for energy savings,
complete with cost analysis for implementation. The
goal of the paper is to present the details with regard
to how the energy website is built, how users can
benefit from using this tool and finally to showcase
the energy tool's capabilities
