How energy audits can help your business meet its net zero goals

Energy audits should be an important part of any business’s resource strategy, from the perspectives of finding financial efficiencies, securing a reliable supply of energy to the business, and ensuring compliance. However, it is often the case that commercial energy audits are not used to their full potential and business owners can often miss important insights that could be saving the business money, or helping it reach its goals.??

What is an energy audit??

Energy audits survey a business or building’s energy needs and usage. This can include looking at things like equipment, data around consumption, utility bills and on-site measurements, among other things. This information is then used to identify areas that savings can be made, both in terms of cost and energy itself.??

How can this help a business reach net zero??

A business energy audit provides valuable insights that can help a business with its net zero transition . By identifying areas of energy inefficiency, a business can take an important step towards net zero. Implementing solutions to these problem areas will reduce overall consumption and by extension carbon emissions. These solutions could include infrastructural ones like fitting more energy efficient lighting and heating systems, or more procedural solutions like providing energy efficiency training to employees so they can learn best practice.??
