Businesses are keen to improve their energy efficiency, but they often don’t know where to start.

That is why energy audits are so useful. They tell precisely where the biggest efficiencies can be found across motor systems, HVAC, Lighting… in a plant or facility. This helps maintenance teams make better decisions on how to save energy and cut costs, by targeting loads and systems with the greatest energy-saving potential.

Data can be gathered in various ways: manually, with an expert visiting a site, or digitally with data gathered remotely for regular energy-use updates. With this operational data, an expert can analyze the systems’ current performance against its potential performance if it were upgraded or resized, for example. The energy savings and emissions avoidance that might be achieved can then be calculated, as well as the projected return on investment (ROI).
