An energy audit is an inspection survey and an analysis of energy flows for energy conservation in a building.
It may include a process or system to reduce the amount of energy input into the system without negatively affecting the output.
In commercial and industrial real estate, an energy audit is the first step in identifying opportunities to reduce energy expense and carbon footprint.
