What is BS EN 16247?

BS EN 16247 is a comprehensive European standard designed to enhance energy efficiency through the systematic practice of energy audits across various sectors, including industrial, commerce, residential buildings, and transportation systems. It guides the journey toward sustainability and cost-effective energy practices.

At its core, BS EN 16247 seeks to standardise and improve the intricate process of energy auditing, making it rigorous, consistent, and reliable. This standard empowers organisations to reveal hidden energy-saving opportunities and enhance energy efficiency. Compliance allows organisations to analyse energy consumption, identify improvement areas, and take steps toward cost reduction and environmental responsibility.

We are here to support organisations embark on a journey towards continuous improvement, enabling them to refine their energy management strategies and achieve lasting, positive impacts on energy performance.

Why should you consider a BS EN 16247 Energy Audit?

Energy Cost Reduction

Energy audits identify inefficiencies and areas for improvement, leading to cost savings through reduced energy consumption and lower utility bills.
Improved Energy Efficiency

Organisations can pinpoint energy-saving opportunities and implement measures to enhance energy efficiency in their operations and facilities.
Environmental Impact Reduction

By reducing energy consumption, businesses can contribute to lower greenhouse gas emissions and a reduced environmental footprint, aligning with sustainability goals.
Compliance

Energy audits conducted in line with BS EN 16247 can help business owners meet regulatory requirements for energy audits set forth in various European regulations and directives.
Energy Performance Evaluation

Clients gain a better understanding of their current energy performance through energy performance indicators (EnPIs), enabling benchmarking and goal-setting.
Data-Driven Decision-Making

Energy audits provide data and insights that support data-driven decision-making in energy management.
Cost-Benefit Analysis

Recommendations provided in energy audit reports include cost-benefit analyses, helping clients prioritise energy-saving measures based on their return on investment.
Customised Recommendations

Energy audit reports provide customised recommendations tailored to the organisation's specific needs and circumstances.

How do we achieve this?

Initial Consultation

During the initial consultation, we grasp the building owner’s energy management goals and audit scope. Subsequently, we meticulously plan the audit’s objectives, team, resources, and schedule.

 

 

Data Analysis

Our energy audit process aligns with BS EN 16247, ensuring a systematic approach to assess energy usage, identify improvements, and offer tailored recommendations for enhanced efficiency. We evaluate the performance of energy systems and identify opportunities for improvement

 

Reporting

A report is created with recommendations on how to further improve their building’s energy performance, with cost estimates and payback periods. After implementation, we monitor the results to ensure that the measures are achieving the expected outcomes and provide ongoing support for further improvements.
