An Energy Audit is a comprehensive study of all aspects, both technical and economic, that directly or indirectly affect the consumption of different energies in a building or industry and whose objective is to establish a rational set of reforms or improvements aimed at a rational use of energy.

With the audit, a sufficiently reliable knowledge of the company’s energy consumption is obtained, the factors that affect energy consumption are detected and energy and economic savings opportunities are identified, evaluated and ordered.

The stages to be carried out are as follows:

• Data collection and review.
• Visit to make an inventory of consumer equipment, distribution of consumption and measurements.
• Tariff analysis.
• Study of energy indicators.
• Treatment and classification of information and reporting.
• Analysis of efficiency improvements and opportunities for energy savings such as:
• Increase the cooling efficiency coefficient (ESEER) in air conditioning equipment.
• Compressors and motors with variable speed drive.
• Look for optimal performance points in pump curves.
• Modulating boiler burners with higher performance.
• Fuel changes.
• Implementation of climate control and lighting management systems.
• Energy recovery from the expelled or extracted air.
• Recovery of condensates in steam installations.
• Detection and repair of compressed air and refrigerant gas leaks.
• Sun protection on windows.
• Proposals for improvements to the building envelope.
• Installation of regenerative lifts in new construction.
• Identification of available financing and incentive programs.
• Planning: Execution and monitoring of improvements.

This service is aimed at agricultural and industrial facilities, such as greenhouses and process plants, as well as commercial and residential buildings.

From residential buildings to hospitals, hotels, sports centres, offices and shops of all kinds.

PROINTER has the technical and human resources to carry out consumption and performance in all types of equipment: equipment based on the heat pump cycle for both air conditioning and refrigeration, combustion of solids, liquids and gases, non-intrusive flow measurement to measure pipes up to 10 inches, multi-network analyzers for electrical measurements of all kinds, luxmeters, air temperature and humidity, thermal imaging cameras, ultrasonic microleak location, CO levels, CO₂ and air quality, volatile organic particles, etc.

Together with our technology partner IBALCA, we also carry out ASHRAE Level I and Level II energy audits, water audits (water footprint), zero-waste audits, indoor environmental quality audits and ESG environmental impact assessments, with decarbonization plans and cost-benefit analysis for existing buildings.
