Conducting Audits

摘要

Broad ly speaking, an energy audit is the inspection, survey and analysis of energy use in a building, process or system. The purpose is to find energy conservation measures that, once implemented, will reduce energy costs.rn"It is a data-gathering activity and an analysis of a facility's energy costs and consumption. An energy audit will also offer a plan that a facility manager can implement to achieve desired energy management goals," said Melissa Golden, electrical contractor segment manager for Schneider Electric North American Operating Division, Palatine, Ill.
