Application of the Proknow-C Methodology in the Search of Literature on Performance Indicators for Energy Management in Manufacturing and Industry 4.0

Industry 4.0 is pushing and shaping the new era of industrial production, and is being considered as an appropriate solution to address current issues, for example, smart use and energy resource management. Structure a literature review to build knowledge and select journals for theoretical foundation becomes essential. In view of this fact, the present study aims to characterize the theme "Performance Indicators for Energy Management in Manufacturing and Industry 4.0", as well as its theoretical foundations and the research opportunities identified in the literature. The method used was the Proknow-C (Knowledge Development Process-Constructivist). As a result, 10 relevant articles were found and aligned with the research theme in an international database. It was also possible to identify the main approaches proposed by the authors of the bibliographic portfolio in relation to energy management indicators in manufacturing and industry 4.0.
