Energy Auditing Fundamentals: Essential Strategies and Techniques for Optimal Results, an Online Training Program (non-certification course)

$650.00

*Please note, for all certification preparation training programs, an additional fee is due when submitting your certification application to take the exam.

About this Program

An effective energy audit needs to examine major energy end-use equipment, operations, maintenance, and management processes of the facility. It is a detailed examination of how the facility uses energy, the cost of energy, and it provides a set of recommendations to reduce the energy costs by both equipment and operational changes. Individuals involved in an audit, whether they are conducting the audit or commissioning the audit, need to understand the processes required to achieve the desired goal.

This program will help improve an energy auditor's methods, and also educate and inform end-users of what they should expect of an audit in terms of activities and deliverables. It helps identify auditing pitfalls and ensures an audit is a holistic action plan for building management, rather than just paperwork or academic exercise, or sales tool to recommend a specific product upgrade or project expenditure.

Program Agenda

The instructor provides an overview of the new ASHRAE Energy Audit - Standard 211 (an update to the ASHRAE Guideline), recently adopted and reference by many localities in their energy audit regulations. The program then proceeds through the four major stages of the audit process, beginning with the pre-audit work that needs to be done to make the best use of the auditor's field time. Then providing a review of all components of the site visit phase of the audit: covering who should be involved, data gathering and forensic detective techniques, and survey/monitoring tools. From there, analysis of the data and potential savings opportunities will be discussed, covering both energy and economic considerations. The instructor emphasizes the proper application of applicable energy rates and the available auditing software tools. Finally, and importantly, the contents and organizational issues necessary for the energy audit report to effectively present the information to its various end users will be detailed.
