Fundamentals of Energy Audits

COURSE DESCRIPTION

When it comes to optimizing energy usage in buildings, identifying potential areas for savings is crucial. A pivotal method for achieving this is through conducting an energy audit. This audit delves into how energy is utilized within a facility and offers an analysis of alternative measures that could effectively cut down on energy costs. By utilizing measured data acquired from an energy audit, it becomes possible to closely monitor operational and equipment changes, ultimately leading to enhanced energy efficiency and optimization of energy usage.
