Company Energy Audit - obligation
with savings potential
The Company Energy Audit is a comprehensive and extensive study aimed at the long-term energy optimization of a company and the development of a zero-emission strategy.
Which companies are required to conduct such an audit?
Company energy audits became mandatory under the Energy Efficiency Act of 2016. All companies required to conduct them in the past two years include those that:
- had an average annual workforce of at least 250 employees
or
- achieved an annual net turnover from the sale of goods, products, and services as well as financial operations exceeding the equivalent of EUR 50 million and the total assets of their balance sheet exceeded the equivalent of EUR 43 million.
Company Energy Audit is mandatory, but it is a huge opportunity for companies to find cost-effective ways to reduce their energy intensity and CO2 emissions!
