Energy Audits and Analysis (ASHRAE) – Preliminary Energy Use Analysis and Levels 1, 2 & 3

Energy audits evaluate the systems in a building to determine what measures can be implemented to reduce the energy use. The audit prioritizes the measures according to the most cost-effective opportunities for energy savings. The American Society of Heating Air Conditioning and Refrigeration Engineers (ASHRAE) have developed standard energy audit levels which ConSol can provide:
  • Preliminary Energy Use Analysis
    Involves analyzing the building’s historical energy use, benchmarking the building and performing a utility rate analysis. Benchmarking is usually completed using EPA’s Energy Star Portfolio Manager, which allows our engineers to determine what level of effort should be employed for you facility
  • ASHRAE Level 1 - Walk Through Analysis
    Includes preliminary audit and a site visit by an engineer who focuses on low cost energy conservation measures and potential capital improvements
  • ASHRAE Level 2 - Energy Survey and Analysis
    Identifies all appropriate energy conservation measures for a building and a financial analysis based on implementation costs, operating costs and attainable savings
  • ASHRAE Level 3 – Detailed Analysis of Capital-Intensive Modifications
    Involves more detailed field data gathering and engineering analysis along with detailed project cost and savings information sufficient for capital investment decisions
