Energy Audits and Energy Efficiency

  • Objective: save energy and it's cost. Be sustainable.
  • Approach: Energy performance index based. KWh per sq.m. per year for building and equivalent kWh per Unit production per year for industries.
  • Method : establish EPI or SEC by detailed or still better , investment grade energy audit. Use it for external benchmarking. Set a target to reduce it YoY i.e. internal benchmarking.. Implement an Energy Saving Opportunity. Monitor savings ( Post implement) and compare ( Pre implement). Analise gap and Correct the course, if required. Implement next Opportunity.

Curiosity component: one should be curious to ask am i using energy optimally? Is my EPI or SEC is the best in the segment? Am i wasting it? Could there be more energy efficient Process or Utility or Technology for my Facility? What are alternative sources of energy for me? Can my byproduct or so to say a waste could reused or recycled? And so on.

Detailed or Investment grade energy audit could be done by a qualified and experienced Team, either internal or external, using proper instruments.

Walkthrough energy audit is a quick procedure which is usually carried out without measurements or instruments to get the drift of Energy Scenario. It often leads to Detailed energy audit.

We , at Energyca, have experience and expertise to serve you at each of these steps.
