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). |
An energy audit is a preliminary activity towards instituting energy efficiency programs in an establishment. It consists of activities that seek to identify conservation opportunities preliminary to the development of an energy savings program. |

Objectives of Energy Audit |
|
|
• |
Reduction in Energy Waste |
• |
Optimized use of energy resources |
• |
Optimizing the Operational procedures |
• |
Evaluate Energy Performance |
• |
Efficiently use of Electricity Board tariff structure |
|
|
Why Energy Audit is required? |
|
|
• |
Increasing cost of Energy Resources |
• |
Non-availability of good quality and continuous Electric supply |
• |
Yawning gap between supply and demand Audit…..Mandatory |
• |
Government regulations and legislations for Energy |
• |
User’s control on end energy use is 100% and hence optimizing energy efficiency in an organization |
• |
Social responsibility |
|

Energy Audit is the key to a systematic approach for decision-making in the area of energy management. It attempts to balance the total energy inputs with its use, and serves to identify all the energy streams in a facility. It quantifies energy usage according to its discrete functions. Industrial energy audit is an effective tool in defining and pursuing comprehensive energy management programe |

|
|
As per the Energy Conservation Act, 2001, Energy Audit is defined as “the verification, monitoring and analysis of use of energy including submission of technical report containing recommendations for improving energy efficiency with cost benefit analysis and an action plan to reduce energy consumption”. |
