Introduction

An energy audit can help an organization to identify opportunities to improve energy efficiency.

It can be part of a site wide energy management system.

There are various sectors with important differences in processes and utilities. It should be

emphasized that there are many types of processes in industry and commerce. In general,

energy is used:
— directly by a process, e.g. furnaces, direct fired dryers, etc;

— indirectly by a process (e.g. heat exchange, distillation, extrusion, etc.) including the specific

conditions of production (e.g. start-up, shut-down, product change over, cleaning,

maintenance, laboratory and product transfer);

— utility processes (e.g. motor driven systems (fans, pumps, motors, compressors, etc.), steam,

hot water), including on site power plants;

— other processes (e.g. sterilization in hospitals, fume cupboards, laboratories etc.).

This document defines the attributes of an appropriate quality energy audit for processes in

addition to EN 16247-1, which gives the general requirements for energy audits.

simultaneously.

A process could include one or more production lines, offices, laboratories, research centres,

packaging and warehouse sections with specific operational conditions and site transportation.

An energy audit could include the whole site or part of a site.

If buildings are included in the scope of the energy audit, the energy auditor may choose to

apply EN 16247-2, Energy Audits — Part 2: Buildings. If on-site transport on a site is included in

the scope of the energy audit, the energy auditor may choose to apply EN 16247-4, Energy

audits — Part 4: Transport.

market;

NOTE The energy auditor can use EN 16231:2012 for energy efficiency benchmarking methodology.

3) the planned life time of the processes.

The energy auditor should consider the use of renewable energy sources and combined heat

and power plant.

The energy auditor should propose to categorize the energy performance improvement

opportunities to:
i) people based opportunities (e.g. training, awareness, etc.);

ii) technical based opportunities (e.g. operations, maintenance and replacement of machines);

iii) organizational based opportunities (e.g. structure of organization, responsibilities).

For each of the proposed energy performance improvement opportunity, the energy auditor

shall calculate the expected energy saving (before and after implementing the energy

performance improvement), taking into consideration the appropriate relevant variables and

static factors.

Whenever possible, the energy auditor should consider the applicability of life-cycle cost

analysis.

The energy auditor shall consider the possible tariff change for lower energy cost.
