Energy audit basically has the following application sectors:
- Buildings: buildings are large structures that require comfort and environmental conditions to the type of activity that takes place inside, for which they need to have large energy equipment that might establish those conditions activities in buildings
- Industry: any industrial process requires high energy consumption in order to obtain the final product. This energy generates numerous losses and therefore should be treated more efficiently. So, is convenient to perform a technical and economic assessment of the possibilities of reducing the effective cost of energy in a system or facility in a profitable manner and without affecting the quantity and quality of the product. Ultimately, the efficiency can lead to these advantages:
- Reduction of energy consumption
- Reduction of production costs
- Improve productivity
- Improve product quality
- Technological innovation activities in industry
- Administration: performances and services provided by public entities to all the citizens have an associated consumption energy that is necessary to optimize for 2 reasons: public administration must give an example to society and for the optimal management of public expenditure activities in administration
- Agriculture: energy efficiency es very important for the agriculture sector, given the upward trend of energy consumption, with the negative effects that produce in the competitiveness of products and in the environment. In fact, in this sector also exists the possibility of applying techniques capable of producing more and better products ensuring environmental sustainability activities in agriculture
