Energy Efficiency Expert Evaluations

This course describes a step-by-step method to conduct an energy efficiency expert evaluation, a customized process to meet site-specific energy goals. This approach combines the most effective features of an energy audit and retro-commissioning, while avoiding the limitations of each.

Learning Objectives

• Establish key performance goals and assemble a well-qualified team during the planning phase
• Conduct a kick-off meeting and a site walk-through during the discovery phase
• Conduct inspections and tests, collect operational data and trends, trouble-shoot problems, and give operation and maintenance training during the correction phase
• Prioritize a "short-list" of low-cost and no-cost opportunities and report all major results in a "master list of findings" during the hand-off phase
