Basic Energy Audits - Medium size Business (energy audit)

Done entirely ONLINE – no site visit required

This online Energy Audit suits any medium size business, anywhere in Australia.

We have used our considerable energy auditing experiences over the last 15-years to develop special energy audit software and energy audit forms that now allow us to highly streamline our energy auditing processes ONLINE (i.e. no more expensive site visits needed). The benefits of the improvement in our processes are now passed on to you the customer in the form of lower fees.

What information will you get in your Energy Audit report ?
You may get the following, written in an electronic book and custom-designed for your site:

Electricity Meters & Electricity/Gas Bills

· How to easily self-check the accuracy of your electricity meter.

· How to self-check whether you are accidentally cross-wired to your neighbor and are therefore paying for their electricity?

· Are you on the cheapest possible electricity/gas bill charge rates, or are you paying far more than you need?

· How to use your “time-of-use” energy charge rates to slash your bills?

· Learn how to check whether your energy bill graphs follow energy-efficient patterns – learn how to pick serious problems.

· Learn how to produce half-hourly energy graphs and to use these as a valuable energy efficiency diagnostics tool.

· Learn how to use the same half-hourly energy graphs as a valuable business intelligence tool.

Electrical Power Factor

· Discover how to stop low power factor from grossly inflating your bills, and overloading your main electrical cables, and burning out your electrical switches?

Miscellaneous

· Are you paying big money for “ghost power”?

· Is invisible electrical leakage bumping your bills?

· How to check your building automation systems for energy efficiency.

· Are invisible hot joints costing you money on your main electrical circuits?

· Are your property cleaners costing you heaps (in energy)?

Lighting

· Exactly how much does it costs to switch fluorescent lights ON?

· How to quickly convert old fluorescent tubes to new, energy efficient tubes.

· How to retrofit your old fluorescent lights to turn them into modern, energy efficient lights.

· Are you using the very latest, energy saving low voltage light bulbs?

· Could new voltage controls save you money on fluorescent lighting costs?

· Do you have more lights than necessary?

· Could room lighting timers reduce your bills?

· Could room movement sensors / motion sensors reduce your bills for lights?

· Are you using the latest, energy efficient flood light bulbs?

· Could compact fluorescent lights save you money?

· How to rationalize your light switching patterns to reduce running costs.

· Could natural lighting facilities reduce your electricity bills?

· Could new, energy-efficient lights allow you to switch OFF internal, overnight security lights?

· Could a lighting maintenance program save you money on lighting costs?

Manufacturing processes

· Could combined-heat-power / co-generation technology produce your own electricity + save you a fortune in heating costs?

· Are your boiler/s or furnace/s energy efficient?

· Are your processing plants operating energy efficiently?

· How to optimize the energy efficiency of your air compressors.

Heating, Ventilation & Air Conditioning (HVAC)

· Is room “air stratification” bumping your room heating costs?

· Could “heat recovery” reduce your water heating costs?

· Convector heaters – Vs – Radiant heaters (strip heaters),
which cost less to run?

· How to check your hot water systems to slash your water heating costs.

· How to reduce your air conditioning (AC) costs for IT and Comms rooms.

· How to optimize your room air temperatures to reduce AC costs.

· How to contain your air conditioned areas to reduce your cooling cost.

· How to maintain your AC to save on running costs.

· Are your AC’s located in energy-efficient locations?

· Thermal insulation for windows.

· Thermal insulation for ceilings/walls.

· Thermal insulation paint for roof tops.

· Are your cooling/heating ducts and pipes thermally insulated?

· Energy saving timers for heating, ventilation and air conditioning equipment.

· Could hot air extraction reduce your cooling costs/

· Could time-of-use control save you money on your water heaters?

· Could evaporative cooling be an energy saving option?

· Could exhaust-sensing, car park ventilation controls save you money?

· Could an overnight warm air purge fan reduce your AC running costs?

· Out-of-season operation of Gas Room Heaters, Boilers & Furnaces.

· Energy efficient operation of boiling water systems.

· Could new. programmable controls reduce your AC costs/heater costs?

· Could power outlet, timer control reduce your costs for plug-in heaters & air conditioners?

· Could evaporative cooler/AC timers reduce your bills?

· How to minimise energy losses from your heated pool/spa.

· Could temperature reduction save you money on your hot water?

Free Energy Sources (renewable energy)

· Produce your own electricity from the sun (via solar PV cells).

· Produce your own water heating from the sun (solar water heating).

· Produce your own electricity from moving water (hydro electricity).

· Produce your own electricity from wind (wind energy).

Electrical Motors

· Could super high energy efficient electrical motors save you BIG money?

· Are your electrical motors operating at energy-efficient speeds?

Appliances

· Are your appliances energy efficient?

· Are your drink refrigerators paying for their high electricity costs?

· Are you using your computers efficiently?

· Are you using your printers efficiently?

· Are you using your copiers efficiently?

· How to optimize the energy efficiency of your coolrooms, fridges and freezers.

Environmental Aspects

· All about Climate Change and Global Warming produced by greenhouse gases from energy use.

· How to employ nature to improve your site and to save energy.

You will also get the following in your Report:

· A table and a bar chart of your last 2-years of electricity/gas bills showing your seasonal energy patterns and your short-term & long-term energy trends. These graphs are an ideal diagnostics tool on which we will highlight any situations for action. See example electricity graph which shows a severe increase over a 2-year period:

The above graph shows an air conditioning system control malfunction that cost $750 to fix and saved $30,000/annum thereafter.

· A pie chart showing what a typical, average site such as your’s uses for lights, air con, heaters, appliances and machinery etc. This will enable you to prioritise where you concentrate your energy saving efforts.

Energy usage for lights, air con, heaters, appliances and machinery etc.

For a free QUOTATION: Please send a fax or email us with the subject line: “Quotation wanted for a Basic Energy Audit”.

In your email/fax tell us a little about the operation of your business site, and tell us the $ cost of your last electricity & gas bill (we will assume that your energy bills are quarterly unless you tell us otherwise).
