An energy audit evaluates a building's energy usage to identify opportunities to reduce costs and increase efficiency. It involves analyzing energy bills, surveying equipment and operations, prioritizing savings opportunities, and estimating savings potential. Audits can range from quick walk-throughs to identify major issues to comprehensive analyses of alternative efficiency measures and financial implications.

With rapid development of india’s national economy and improvement of living standards, energy issues have turned into serious social problems, restricting further development in the country. Large public buildings in india consume a great quantity of energy, and the indian government has rolled out a number of programs to retrofit them. Many retrofit technologies are readily available in india. However, there is uncertainty about technology effectiveness and which technologies work better in which climate zone. Only spotty analyses and summaries of real projects are available in literature. This report compares and analyzes these technologies in detail and provides some guidance in selecting economically effective approaches to retrofitting large public buildings. The first section sorts out some common building energysaving technologies and describes each technology with real projects. This section offers related background information for calculations later in the report.the second section summarizes energy consumption in office buildings and retail stores based on a literature survey for three major locations in india. The data includes itemized energy consumption, as well as energy use at whole-building levels. Later, building energy consumption simulation software – equest is used to simulate typical public buildings we constructed out of the literature survey. We calibrated the models, adjusted the usage schedules, and built a series of prototype models for all three geographical locations. The last section evaluates the effectiveness of each retrofit technology. Equest simulated the energy consumption with and without retrofit technologies in order to determine savings. We then added a cost analysis and calculated the typical payback period for each technology. Finally, we summarized these findings in tables so that readers can easily compare and understand how much savings and the payback period they can expect before starting a retrofit project.

1. Energy audit
An energy audit is an inspection, survey and
analysis of energy flows, for energy conservation
in a building, process or system to reduce the
amount of energy input into the system without
negatively affecting the output(s).
In commercial and industrial real estate, an
energy audit is the first step in identifying
opportunities to reduce energy expense and carbon
footprints.
Mr. A. L. Naidu, Assistant Professor, GMR IT, Dept of Mech
2. Principle
When the object of study is an occupied
building then reducing energy
consumption while maintaining or
improving human comfort, health and
safety are of primary concern.
Beyond simply identifying the sources of
energy use, an energy audit seeks to
prioritize the energy uses according to the
greatest to least cost effective
opportunities for energy savings.
Mr. A. L. Naidu, Assistant Professor, GMR IT, Dept of Mech
3. Home energy audit
A home energy audit is a service where
the energy efficiency of a house is
evaluated by a person using professional
equipment (such as blower doors and
infrared cameras), with the aim to suggest
the best ways to improve energy efficiency
in heating and cooling the house.
Mr. A. L. Naidu, Assistant Professor, GMR IT, Dept of Mech
4. A blower door is a machine used to
measure the air tightness of buildings. It
can also be used to measure airflow
between building zones, to test ductwork
air tightness and to help physically locate
air leakage sites in the building envelope.
Mr. A. L. Naidu, Assistant Professor, GMR IT, Dept of Mech
6. Professional energy auditors use blower
door tests to help determine a home's air
tightness.
These are some reasons for establishing
the proper building air tightness:
Reducing energy consumption due to air
leakage
Avoiding moisture condensation problems
Avoiding uncomfortable drafts caused by
cold air leaking in from the outdoors
Determining how much mechanical
ventilation might be needed to provide
acceptable indoor air quality.
Mr. A. L. Naidu, Assistant Professor, GMR IT, Dept of Mech
7. INFRARED
CAMERAS
An infrared camera is a non-contact
device that detects infrared energy (heat)
and converts it into an electronic signal,
which is then processed to produce a
thermal image on a video monitor and
perform temperature calculations.
It is also know as thermographic camera
or thermal imaging camera
Mr. A. L. Naidu, Assistant Professor, GMR IT, Dept of Mech
8. One more Definition:-
A thermographic camera (also called an
infrared camera or thermal imaging
camera) is a device that forms an image
using infrared radiation, similar to a
common camera that forms an image using
visible light. Instead of the 400–700
nanometre range of the visible light
camera, infrared cameras operate in
wavelengths as long as 14,000 nm
(14 µm). Their use is called thermography.
Mr. A. L. Naidu, Assistant Professor, GMR IT, Dept of Mech
9. Mr. A. L. Naidu, Assistant Professor, GMR IT, Dept of Mech
10. Applications:-
An energy audit of a home may involve recording
various characteristics of the building envelope
including the walls, ceilings, floors, doors, windows,
and skylights.
A home energy audit may include a written report
estimating energy use given local climate criteria,
thermostat settings, roof overhang, and solar
orientation
A home energy audit is often used to identify cost
effective ways to improve the comfort and efficiency
of buildings.
Recently, the improvement of smartphone
technology has enabled homeowners to perform
relatively sophisticated energy audits of their own
homes. This technique has been identified as a
Mr. A. L. Naidu, Assistant Professor, GMR IT, Dept of Mech
11. Industrial energy audits
Increasingly in the last several decades,
industrial energy audits have exploded as the
demand to lower increasingly expensive
energy costs and move towards a sustainable
future have made energy audits greatly
important.
Their importance is magnified since energy
spending is a major expense to industrial
companies (energy spending accounts for ~
10% of the average manufacturer's
expenses).
This growing trend should only continue asMr. A. L. Naidu, Assistant Professor, GMR IT, Dept of Mech
12. While the overall concept is similar to a
home or residential energy audit, industrial
energy audits require a different skill set.
Weather proofing and insulating a house
are the main focus of residential energy
audits.
For industrial applications, it is the
HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air
conditioning), lighting, and production
equipment that use the most energy, and
hence are the primary focus of energy
audits.
Mr. A. L. Naidu, Assistant Professor, GMR IT, Dept of Mech
13. Types of energy audit
The term energy audit is commonly used to
describe a broad spectrum of energy
studies ranging from a quick walk-through
of a facility to identify major problem areas
to a comprehensive analysis of the
implications of alternative energy efficiency
measures sufficient to satisfy the financial
criteria of sophisticated investors.
Mr. A. L. Naidu, Assistant Professor, GMR IT, Dept of Mech
14. Energy conservation opportunities (or measures) can
consist in more efficient use or of partial or global
replacement of the existing installation.
When looking to the existing audit methodologies
developed in IEA EBC Annex 11, by ASHRAE and by
Krarti (2000), it appears that the main issues of an
audit process are:
The analysis of building and utility data, including
study of the installed equipment and analysis of
energy bills;
The survey of the real operating conditions;
The understanding of the building behaviour and of
the interactions with weather, occupancy and
operating schedules;
The selection and the evaluation of energy
conservation measures;
The estimation of energy saving potential;
The identification of customer concerns and needs.
Mr. A. L. Naidu, Assistant Professor, GMR IT, Dept of Mech
15. Generally, four levels of analysis can be outlined (ASHRAE):
Level 0 – Benchmarking: This first analysis consists in a preliminary
Whole Building Energy Use (WBEU) analysis based on the analysis of
the historic utility use and costs and the comparison of the
performances of the buildings to those of similar buildings. This
benchmarking of the studied installation allows determining if further
analysis is required;
Level I – Walk-through audit: Preliminary analysis made to assess
building energy efficiency to identify not only simple and low-cost
improvements but also a list of energy conservation measures (ECMs,
or energy conservation opportunities, ECOs) to orient the future
detailed audit. This inspection is based on visual verifications, study of
installed equipment and operating data and detailed analysis of
recorded energy consumption collected during the benchmarking
phase;
Level II – Detailed/General energy audit: Based on the results of the
pre-audit, this type of energy audit consists in energy use survey in
order to provide a comprehensive analysis of the studied installation, a
more detailed analysis of the facility, a breakdown of the energy use
and a first quantitative evaluation of the ECOs/ECMs selected to
correct the defects or improve the existing installation. This level of
analysis can involve advanced on-site measurements and
sophisticated computer based simulation tools to evaluate precisely the
selected energy retrofits;
Level III – Investment-Grade audit: Detailed Analysis of Capital-Mr. A. L. Naidu, Assistant Professor, GMR IT, Dept of Mech
16. Walk-through (or) preliminary audit
The preliminary audit (alternatively called a
simple audit, screening audit or walk-
through audit) is the simplest and quickest
type of audit.
It involves minimal interviews with site-
operating personnel, a brief review of
facility utility bills and other operating data,
and a walk-through of the facility to become
familiar with the building operation and to
identify any glaring areas of energy wasteMr. A. L. Naidu, Assistant Professor, GMR IT, Dept of Mech
17. General audit
The general audit (alternatively called a
mini-audit, site energy audit or detailed
energy audit or complete site energy audit)
expands on the preliminary audit described
above by collecting more detailed
information about facility operation and by
performing a more detailed evaluation of
energy conservation measures.
Mr. A. L. Naidu, Assistant Professor, GMR IT, Dept of Mech
18. Investment-grade audit
In most corporate settings, upgrades to a
facility's energy infrastructure must
compete for capital funding with non-
energy-related investments. Both energy
and non-energy investments are rated on
a single set of financial criteria that
generally stress the expected return on
investment (ROI).
Mr. A. L. Naidu, Assistant Professor, GMR IT, Dept of Mech
