Company XYZ assembles electronic industrial products in an 89,000 square foot building. The assembly area is a temperature-controlled environment. In an effort to establish a means of reducing the overall energy use throughout the facility this report will evaluate various energy usages throughout the facility. The type of audit performed was a walk-through audit. An initial walk through was performed to document the areas of high-energy consumers. The information compiled during the audit was then analyzed for potential savings and if possible an estimated payback time was calculated. Overall, the report addresses a variety of areas such as lighting, heating, ventilation, air-conditioning, hot water heating, compressors and others in which Company XYZ can save energy and ultimately reduce their energy cost. Some areas may provide minimal savings but others may provide substantial return on investments.
