The document outlines the methodology for conducting energy audits, emphasizing the importance of an attractive report format for effective communication with top management. It details the components of an energy audit report, including energy supply and consumption data, and identifies potential energy saving measures along with their costs and benefits. Guidance is provided on how to persuade decision makers to implement these energy saving measures through effective presentations and business cases.

Energy Audit Report &
Presentation

3. Prepare Energy Audit Report
 After successfully carried out energy audit
energy manager/energy auditor should report to
the top management for effective
communication and implementation
 The report format should be tailored to make it
more attractive to the management

4. Energy Audit Report …(1)
Executive
Summary
Objectives, scope, type or audit and
summary of energy saving recommendations
Management
Of Energy
Policy and targets
Energy data, documentation and
monitoring
Compliance towards the regulations
Energy management team
Energy audit team
Plant/Building
Production/se
rvices
Description
Brief description for production process-
manufacturing/services-buildings
Process flow diagram and major
components of operation

5. Energy Audit Report…(2)
Energy
Supply
Information
Total electricity supplied and trends
Sources and types of energy supply
Costs of energy supply (price, tariff).
Utility
system
description
Brief description of each utility
system and major equipment
Current energy performance/energy
efficiency status (energy intensity) for
plant, processes and major energy using
equipment 5

Energy Audit Report…(3)
Energy
Consumption
Information
Load profile data and charts
Estimated annual energy consumption in
energy unit (electricity/fuel) and the
percentage (%) of load distribution such HVAC,
production machinery, lighting and etc;
Operating hours of the installation and major
energy using system/equipment
Energy Supply
And
Consumption
Analysis
Conclusions from supply and consumption
profiles and trends from energy bills and
measurements
Suitability of energy supply types and
tariff/prices
Current energy performance status (energy
intensity) for plant, processes and major energy
using equipment

7. Energy Audit Report…(4)
Energy Saving
Measures
Summary of energy saving potentials and measures
identified:
•No cost/low cost : housekeeping, minor repairs
•High cost/major investment required: major
repair/replacement / introduction of new technologies
Potential of energy savings in energy unit and
currency;
Energy saving measurements and calculations
methods;
Potential returns from the costs to implement
energy saving measures ( Simple Payback Period/
IRR)
Financing options/Government Incentives available
Proposed action plan and estimated time required
to implement each measure
Energy Saving
Measurement &
Verification
 Baselines to be used to measure results
Measurements & verification methods

8. What is the next steps?
• To convince the decision makers and
key players in the organization
• Mostly decision makers are with no or
little technical background and
generally more concern on core
businesses and financial returns!

11. Present findings to the top
management for approval to
implement….
11

12. Present Findings
 To convince the top management to implement
energy saving measures – require investments
 To present key data that the management team
members are keen to see for making decisions
12

13. Tips to convince the top management
1. Convince other key players -supports from other key
departments/division(finance, production & etc)
2. Prepare effective presentation materials or write ups
 Strong business case in key points
 Specifically structured and prepared
 All possible key points to attract their attention must be carefully studied and
identified
 To be tailored in the proposal- all possible doubts, concerns or points to argue
have been addressed
3. The presentation
 The presenter must be able to present it confidently and convincingly
 To highlight key points
• economic benefits
• contribution to profitability
• improvement of energy performance
• faster and high returns for investments
• high success factors
• technical feasibility -proven technologies and case studies 13

14. Example of Successful ESMs Implementation:
Private Commercial Shopping Complex …(1)
Areas of Implementation:
 Transformers
 Cooling System – Chillers, Cooling Towers, AHUs, CHW & CDW Pumps
 Lighting System – Internal, External & Parking
 Demand Controls
Total Actual Saving Achieved
= RM 1,495,000/year
14

15. Example of Successful ESMs Implementation:
Private Industrial Warehouse …(2)
Application Areas:
- Fluorescent Lamps
- High bay Lighting - HID
Total Annual Actual Saving Achieved
= 42.2%
= 3,283,200 kWh,
= RM 920,000 15

16. Example of Successful ESMs Implementation : Pilot Project for
Public Lighting -Comparison Before & After Implementation
(Before) Conventional HID 250W (After) LED 150W
