Energy efficiency benchmarking methodology

This European Standard specifies requirements and provides recommendations for energy efficiency benchmarking methodology. The purpose of energy efficiency benchmarking is to establish the relevant data and indicators on energy consumption, both technical and behavioural, qualitative and quantitative in comparing performance between or within entities.
Energy efficiency benchmarking can be either internal (within a specific organisation) or external (between organisations including competitors). This standard describes how to establish the boundaries of what is being benchmarked, including for example facilities, activities, processes, products, services and organisations.
This European Standard provides guidance on the criteria to be used in order to choose the appropriate level of detail for the data collection, processing and reviewing which suits the objective of the benchmarking.
This European Standard does not itself state specific performance requirements with respect to energy use. For all activities related to the continual improvement cycle (such as the Plan-Do-Check-Act methodology) reference shall be made to management systems in the organisation.

Energieeffizienz-Benchmarking-Methodik

Diese Europäische Norm legt Anforderungen an eine Energieeffizienz-Benchmarking-Methodik fest und gibt die entsprechenden Empfehlungen. Zweck des Energieeffizienz-Benchmarkings ist es, durch den Vergleich der Leistung zwischen oder innerhalb von Einheiten die maßgeblichen Daten und Indikatoren zum Energieverbrauch sowohl in technischer als auch in verhaltensbestimmter sowie in quantitativer wie qualitativer Hinsicht festzulegen.
Energieeffizienz-Benchmarking kann entweder intern (innerhalb einer bestimmten Organisation) oder extern (zwischen Organisationen einschließlich Mitbewerbern) erfolgen. Diese Norm beschreibt, wie die Grenzen dessen, worauf sich das Benchmarking bezieht, ermittelt werden, z. B. Einrichtungen, Tätigkeiten, Prozesse, Produkte, Dienstleistungen und Organisationen.
Diese Europäische Norm stellt Leitlinien zu den Kriterien bereit, die anzusetzen sind, um einen angemessenen, zur Zielstellung des Benchmarkings passenden Detaillie¬rungsgrad für die Erhebung, die Verarbeitung und die Überprüfung der Daten auszuwählen.
Diese Europäische Norm legt für sich genommen keine spezifischen Leistungsanforderungen hinsichtlich des Energie¬einsatzes fest. Bei sämtlichen Tätigkeiten, die sich auf den fortwährenden Verbesserungszyklus (z. B. die Plan-Do-Check-Act-Methodik) beziehen, ist der Bezug zu den Managementsystemen innerhalb der Organisation herzustellen.

Méthodologie de benchmarking de l'efficacité énergétique

La présente Norme européenne fixe les exigences et fournit des recommandations pour une méthodologie de benchmarking de l'efficacité énergétique. L'objectif du benchmarking de l'efficacité énergétique est d'établir les données et les indicateurs pertinents sur la consommation d’énergie, techniques et comportementaux, qualitatifs et quantitatifs en comparant la performance entre des entités ou en leur sein.
Le benchmarking de l'efficacité énergétique peut être interne (au sein d'un organisme spécifique) ou bien externe (entre organismes y compris concurrents). La présente Norme décrit comment établir les périmètres de ce qui est soumis au benchmarking, par exemple des infrastructures, des activités, des procédés de fabrication, des produits, des services et des organismes.
La présente Norme européenne fournit des recommandations sur les critères à utiliser afin de choisir le niveau approprié de détail pour le recueil, le traitement et la révision des données adaptés à l'objectif du benchmarking.
La présente Norme européenne n'indique pas en soi d'exigences spécifiques de performance en ce qui concerne l'usage énergétique. Pour toutes les activités liées au cycle d'amélioration continue (par exemple la méthodologie PDCA [Plan-Do-Check-Act, Planifier-Faire-Vérifier-Agir]), il doit être fait référence aux systèmes de management au sein de l'organisme.

Metodologija za primerjalno analizo energijske učinkovitosti

Evropski standard določa zahteve in zagotavlja priporočila za metodologija za primerjalno analizo energijske učinkovitosti. Namen določanja referenčnih vrednosti energijske učinkovitosti je določiti ustrezne podatke in indikatorje o porabi energije s tehničnega, vedenjskega, kvalitativnega in kvantitativnega vidika, pri čemer se primerja učinkovitost delovanja med enotami in v njih. Določanje referenčnih vrednosti energijske učinkovitosti je lahko notranje (znotraj določene organizacije) ali zunanje (med organizacijami s konkurenti). V tem standardu je opisano, kako postaviti meje za elemente, za katere so se določile referenčne vrednosti energijskih vrednosti, vključno na primer z vzorčnimi objekti, dejavnostmi, postopki, izdelki, storitvami in organizacijami. Ta evropski standard zagotavlja navodila o merilih, ki se bodo uporabila za izbiro ustrezne ravni podrobnosti za zbiranje, obdelavo in pregledovanje podatkov, ki ustrezajo cilju določanja referenčnih vrednosti. V tem evropskem standardu niso navedene posebne zahteve učinkovitosti delovanja v zvezi z rabo energije. Za vse dejavnosti, ki se nanašajo na cikel nenehnih izboljšav (kot je metodologija »načrtuj, naredi, preveri, ukrepaj« (PDCA)), je potrebno sklicevanje na sisteme upravljanja v organizaciji.
