8 What is Energy Audit/Assessment? Energy audit is a systematic procedure in existing buildings/ sites/objects where the purpose is to evaluate the existing energy consumption identify the energy saving potential and find the potential of renewable energy sources report (and make detailed proposals for saving measures) monitor the realisation of proposals/retrofit measures assess the influences and savings achieved (Source:Motiva) 8

9 Different Aspects in Energy Assessment Technical Understanding the energy usage and how to improve and control it Organisational Management, Commitment, Resources, Planning People Developing energy concious management and M&O, training 9

10 Enegy Assessment as part of Energy Management State State of of the the Art Art Setting Setting Long Long Term Term Targets Targets Long Term Energy Management Improving the energy efficiency by investing to the new technologies Short Term Energy Management Effective O&M of the existing systems in Bldg Consump. Consump. Monitoring Monitoring Energy Assessment Targets Targets for for monthly monthly consumption consumption O&M O&M improvements improvements (no (no cost cost measures) measures) Energy Energy Analysis Analysis and and Assessment Assessment Planning Planning and and implementation implementation of of retrofits retrofits Analysing Analysing of of Results Results 10

20 The administrator of the assessment scheme (administrator): o o o whose main interest lies in improving energy efficiency has a long term perspective, framework is concerned about the cost and effectiveness of assessment work Operation and maintenance staff (client or operating agent): o o whose main interest lies in operating the site cost-effectively is familiar with the site Contractors (auditor): o o o whose main interest lies in fulfilling their task cost-effectively have maintenance contracts on different systems have very detailed technical data of the site Energy assessment team (auditor): o o o o whose main interest lies in doing their tasks cost-effectively within a limited timeframe are experts in energy assessment work are experts in building and systems energy use have no site knowledge ESCOs (auditor): o whose main interest lies in identifying energy investment projects Building occupants (client or operating agent): o o Key Players in Energy Assessment whose main interest lie in having good indoor conditions for doing their work who are energy users. 20

21 Energy Assessment Team Depends on the site and goals of assessment Typically EA Team includes: Building envelope expert/construction engineer Mechanical engineer (HVAC, hot/chilled water, steam etc) Electrical systems expert (lighting, el. equipments etc) Possibly other experts (compr. air, refrigeration, process etc) Representative(s) of M&O organisation 21

32 Monitoring-Based Commissioning (MBCx) is an ongoing process with same targets as CCx resolve operating problems, improve comfort, optimize energy use and identify retrofits for existing buildings with increased emphasis on training of the building staff empowering them to use the monitoring through analysis training, diagnostics and smart alarms.
