Bangladesh faced a substantial growth in primary energy demand in the last few years. According to several studies, energy generation is not the only means to address energy demand; efficient energy management practices are also very critical. A pertinent contribution in the energy management at the industrial sector ensures the proper utilization of energy. Energy management and its efficiency in the textile industries of Bangladesh are studied in this paper. The outcomes demonstrate several barriers to energy management practices which are inadequate technical cost-effective measures, inadequate capital expenditure, and poor research and development. However, this study also demonstrates that the risk of high energy prices in the future, assistance from energy professionals, and an energy management scheme constitute the important drivers for the implementation of energy efficiency measures in the studied textile mills. The studied textile industries seem unaccustomed to the dedicated energy service company concept, and insufficient information regarding energy service companies (ESCOs) and the shortage of trained professionals in energy management seem to be the reasons behind this. This paper likewise finds that 3–4% energy efficiency improvements can be gained with the help of energy management practices in these industries.

“…First, influenced by the organizational structure of energy enterprises, the managerial hierarchy is complex, while the period of decision-making process is long. 41 Their administration cannot be easily changed, hence the energy enterprises are slow in making decisions and unable to make rapid adjustments. Second, most energy enterprises have always had conservative and outmoded business modes.…”

This paper conducts strategic analysis and development plan design of energy digital transformation from a global perspective. First, this paper analyzes the reasons for the digital transformation of the energy industry, and elaborates on the current status of the digital transformation of the energy industry. Second, this paper uses the "SWOT" model to conduct a strategic analysis of the digital transformation of energy. Finally, this paper uses the "IETB" model to design the development plan. The results showed that: (1) Energy digital transforma-

“…There are opinions in the literature that, for many years of dealing with the subject of energy, no generally accepted definition of energy security has been developed and that such action is extremely difficult to implement [20]. On the other hand, the term promoted by the International Energy Agency (IEA) is commonly cited, according to which energy security should be defined as the uninterrupted availability of energy sources at an affordable price [21].…”

Energy security is of key importance for states and international organizations. An important issue in energy security is the assessment of current and future energy security methods. While the assessment of the current methods is relatively easy, since it is based on recent information, the assessment of the future methods is burdened with uncertainty and is therefore much more difficult. Therefore, the aim of the article is to develop a new approach for assessing current and future energy security issues based on a complex security index, supported by the computationally transparent fuzzy multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA) method. The use of the fuzzy MCDA methods allows one to capture the uncertainty of assessments and forecasts, and the forecasts themselves were based on the Holt’s method; the international energy security risk index (IESRI) was used as the source of the data to generate the forecasts. The research compared two data sources for forecasts (IESRI categories and metrics) and two methods of forecast fuzzification. As a result, the forecasted assessments and rankings of energy security for the 2020–2030 period were obtained. On the basis of these forecasts, general trends shaping energy security were also indicated.
