An energy audit is a technical assessment of an organization's energy consumption aimed at reducing wasteful usage. It involves collecting data at energy points, identifying losses, and recommending conservation measures. Certified experts use instruments to analyze equipment performance against benchmarks. This helps achieve compliance, lower costs, faster return on investments, improved productivity, reduced emissions, and a more efficient overall system. Energy audits cover industrial, commercial, and other facility types.

Energy Audit
This paper attempts to answer the questions related to Energy Audit. In simple terms
an Energy Audit is a complex technical assessment of present energy consumption
of an Industrial Unit or a Commercial Facility or a Community Complex for the
purpose of reduction in wasteful consumption.
The Objective
Accumulating data at various energy points
Identifying energy losses and critical junctions
Enabling energy conservation and cost savings
The Methodology
Analyzing the performance of each equipment by Certified B.E.E. Experts using most
advanced instruments and equipment
Collating the parameter data with benchmarks
Manifesting and implementing corrective measures
What it covers
All operations, processes, products and departments in the organization
All forms of energy – specifically electrical + thermal
Operational efficiency of equipment like diesel generator sets, turbo generator sets
and utilization of power from the electricity supply authority
Evaluation of different components of the electrical network like transformers, lighting,
motors, capacitors and the distribution network
Study of utility equipment like air compressors, fans, pumps, blowers, air-conditioning
and refrigeration, evaporative cooling, cooling towers, boilers, furnaces, thermal fluid
heaters
What it leads to
Energy balance
Heat and mass balance
Establishing specific energy consumption
Identifying opportunities for energy efficiency

Areas of Energy Audit
Industrial Units – Manufacturing Units – Steel, Metal, Ceramic, Cement, Chemicals,
Edible Oil, Fertilizer, Paper, Textiles etc., Processing Units, Foundries, Cold Storages etc.
and several other similar units definitely benefit from an Energy Audit.
Commercial Facilities – Corporate Houses, Offices, Educational Institutes, Multi-
Storeyed Complexes, Commercial Complexes, Hotels, Shopping Malls, Hospitals,
Airports etc. definitely benefit from an Energy Audit.
Types of Energy Audit
Thermal Audit: energy balancing, waste heat recovery, thermal control systems and
energy savings study
Electrical Audit: distribution system study, energy balancing, power factor study,
electrical loads, loss estimation, and methods for loss elimination
Energy Intensive Equipment Study
Power Quality Analysis
