Energy survey is one of the most relevant and promising branches of energy consulting, which allows you to identify places where energy resources, as well as water, gas, heat and electricity, etc. are not rationally spent. By reducing the losses of all these resources, it is possible to achieve a serious decline in energy, water, gas components in the cost of production, as well as increase the competitiveness of the enterprise in the market.

Energy audit of the enterprise pursues the most important goal - to identify ways to reduce the cost of energy resources, both in physical terms and in value terms. Such a study of the enterprise will allow the preparation of a reasonable, comprehensive plan for energy saving in the medium term.

The organization's energy audit helps to:

- reduced specific consumption of heat and electricity;

- installed capacity is reduced due to the use of energy-saving technologies;

-energy losses are minimized to economically justified amounts;

- energy audit data can be used in the future to justify and protect tariffs, as well as increase their transparency and objectivity.

Energy audit for plant management has the following benefits:

- understanding the process of distribution of energy resources within the organization;

- obtaining a plan of action specially developed for the enterprise to eliminate deviations in the energy saving system;

- reduction of the energy component in the cost of production;

- minimizing losses that exceed standards;

- elimination of misuse of funds;

- the introduction of an efficient energy economy at the enterprise, which meets all existing norms and standards.

Energy surveys of organizations are conducted as follows.

1) Conduct an analysis of the actual consumption of energy resources and their costs.

2) Inspection of heating, electricity and water supply systems.

3) Inspection of protective and enclosing structures.

4) Calculation of energy consumption, creating balances of heat and energy consumption.

5) Determination of the specific consumption of heat, electricity and water consumption.

6) Identify technical solutions and activities to improveenergy saving and resource efficiency.

7) Formation of reports and technical documentation, based on the calculations obtained in the course of the work done.

8) Sending an energy passport for examination with its subsequent inclusion in the appropriate register.

Comprehensive and professional energy audit helps develop energy efficiency programs and implement program activities. Thanks to such a study, it is possible to recoup the activities carried out in a short time (by minimizing energy costs, and, accordingly, financial resources).
