This energy audit illustrates a monthly data
from an institution's energy audit, as well as any steps
that can be taken to minimize energy usage and, if
necessary, fix or upgrade any equipment. This audit was
performed on numerous floors, which included various
laboratories, classrooms, staff cabins, and various
functional instruments. The audit consisted of some
measures which were done before proceeding for the
audit, for pre-audit we calculated the consumption
related to different floors and where the energy
consumption was more and how it can be reduced. The
post audit measures were to either check and repair the
products using high energy consumption or to replace
that products.
The audit was done from the first floor i.e., the
workshop considering different machines like lathe,
milling machine, grinders, welding machines, CNCs,
VMCs, and other appliances used by the students for
practical purposes.
Then the second floor, where classes, cabins are
present where the total lights and fans were checked.
Finally, the third floor where along with cabins,
computer labs are there and consumption of the lights,
fans, and pc was taken into consideration.
The daily energy usage information for each floor is
given, as well as various strategies for reducing daily
consumption which can help the college for the process
of energy audit and reduce the consumption of the
college simultaneously resulting in saving of energy and
concluding a successful energy audit.
