Energy comes from a wide variety of sources (electricity, gas, oil, steam, etc.), and is used in companies all over the world. Although the cost of energy is rising as non-renewable resources are depleted, the good news is that reducing the energy consumption of industrial companies will not only cut costs but also reduce their carbon footprint, while reducing their impact on the environment. And this is the basis on which ARGUMO<\/strong><\/a> for an energy audit, which represents an essential starting point for good resource management, by establishing a statement of energy consumption, taking into account the specific characteristics and uses of the site, and identifying measures to improve energy performance.<\/p>

This audit also aims to conduct a pre-feasibility study of the investments in order to establish the dimensioning and the technical, energetic and economic characteristics of the most interesting measures as well as to set up a demonstration project.<\/p>

The conduct of such a study generally involves four main phases, namely:<\/p>

Phase 1: Conducting the energy audit<\/h2>

This starts with a detailed analysis of our plant's energy performance, including an analysis of water and electricity consumption and the share of lighting, air conditioning, electric motors and compressed air compressors in that consumption.<\/p>

Phase 2: Analysis of data and measurements<\/h2>

After collecting the necessary data on the building and its uses, we move on to identify the main sources of energy consumption, in our case electricity. The goal is to identify the rate of electrical consumption for each utility (lighting, air conditioning, electric motors, compressed air compressors) over a given period, then to extract the possibilities of evolution, the costs of the necessary investments and the expected savings.<\/p>

Phase 3: Identification of actions to improve energy performance<\/h2>

These are the possible corrective actions and good practices to adopt to preserve the energy efficiency of our plant.<\/p>

As an example:<\/p>
