Energy Audit is an important tool in transforming the fortunes of any organization. An energy audit is a systematic approach of surveying and performing analysis of energy flow for energy conservation in any sector. For every commercial firm in India, an energy audit is mandatory as per Energy Conservation Act 2001. As a result, among industrial consumers, energy conservation is getting more attention due to the realization that energy saved will be economically beneficial for them. Some rural areas in India are power deficient for domestic usage even after getting connected to the grid. This problem can be addressed by Energy conservation. Conservation of energy in the various industrial and commercial sectors will assist us by transferring the saved capacity to destitute individuals, and this will also lead to the reduction in setting up a new generation. The significant need of the energy audit is to moderate energy and fossil products for a group of people yet to come life. The energy auditing has been performed at a leading private hospital in the city to estimate the annual energy consumption. The energy audit focuses mainly on the equipment consumption, air-conditioning system, lighting system, etc. The annual power consumption of the hospital was 91,83,870 kWh. The paper suggests recommendations for energy savings which if implemented will lead to a saving of 5,51,032 kWh energy. Economic and efficient energy conservation measures implementation is subject to budgetary constraints and the effects of such measures have been recognized by reducing energy cost, with the added benefits of environmental safety. |
