Three energy audits standard open for public comment


Tuesday, 11 February, 2014

Standards Australia has released three draft Standards on Energy Audits for public comment.

The suite of standards are designed to assist organisations when deciding on what type of audit to implement as well as providing an outline in best practice for energy auditors.

The public comment process allows stakeholders to participate in the revision of standards regarding general requirements for energy audits for commercial buildings, industrial sites and transport.

“The standards recognise the different approaches to energy auditing but strive to harmonise common aspects in order to bring more clarity and transparency to the whole process,” said Dr Evans.

Dr Evans said that, regardless of size or type of organisation, energy audits are an important step to achieve economic and environment benefits. “In a competitive market, energy audits identify measures to increase energy efficiency and reduce energy costs, empowering businesses to become more resilient and sustainable for the future,” said Dr Evans.
