Energy Audit

What is an energy audit

An energy audit is detailed inspection and analysis of a building’s current energy use. Be it a factory, commercial complex, educational institution, or government building, owners can conduct an energy audit process to map out how energy enters, flows through, and is ultimately used or wasted in their setup. With an energy audit report, building owners are able to identify economical energy-saving opportunities. Be it an industrial energy audit, commercial energy audit or residential energy audit, one should conduct an energy audit process every 3-5 years or when one observes an uptick in energy consumption and cannot identify the cause

Importance of energy audit

An energy audit is important because of the following reasons: 

• An energy audit will help building or industry set up owners identify energy-saving opportunities
• It will help owners understand their daily energy usage and ways to optimize it further 
• When it comes to identifying safety concerns, an energy audit report showcases any fault in ventilation, wiring and so on
• Conducting an energy audit will also help companies reduce their carbon footprint  

Examples of energy audit

Imagine you are the owner of a steel manufacturing plant facing high electricity consumption. You realize it is due to unoptimized compressed air systems. In such a situation an energy audit company like

TPTCL will conduct a detailed energy audit of all high-load equipment and make recommendations of an ideal solution that will not only reduce your energy consumption but also reduce CO₂ emissions.
