Energy saving and energy efficiency program

The specialist collects data on resource consumption in the companyDevelopment of an energy efficiency program in the company

save energyIs a series of measures to reduce the level of negative impact on the environment and save money when purchasing energy resources.

The Energy Saving and Energy Efficiency Program is a document that establishes certain rules in the field of energy saving for specialized organizations.

Which institutions and organizations are required to implement energy saving programs:

  • Organizations whose activities are subject to government regulation;

  • state and municipal institutions;

  • Companies engaged in the production or transportation of fuel and energy resources (fuel and energy resources);

  • Organizations in which the energy efficiency and energy saving program is financed from the local (federal) budget;

  • Organizations that spend more than 50 million rubles annually on fuel and energy resources.

Purpose of the program- Saving of heat and electricity, natural gas, fuel, water, etc. , competent use of resources as well as organization of a general comprehensive approach in the implementation of various methods of energy saving.

The planned goals are achieved through:

  • Increasing the productivity of electricity and heat supply systems, water supply and sewage systems;

  • Use of highly efficient equipment and materials;

  • Introduction of the latest and best energy saving technologies;

  • Installation of measuring devices;

  • Organization of various measures for the economical use of energy and resources. For example, training employees, monitoring the operation of heating devices, tracking the dynamics of energy consumption, etc.

An energy saving program will be developed on the basis of these regulatory documents:

  • "About saving energy and increasing energy efficiency";

  • "Regarding the requirements for regional and municipal programs in the field of energy saving. . . ";

  • "About additional measures to promote energy saving";

  • "About increasing the efficiency of energy and water use. . . "

  • "On the process of establishing requirements for programs in the field of energy saving and increasing the energy efficiency of organizations carrying out regulated activities"

The above program necessarily includes:

  • Information on target indicators that can indicate a decrease in consumption in physical terms and under comparable conditions;

  • List of energy saving measures (organizational, administrative, technological, aggregated and automated) measures;

  • Explanations;

  • Pass the program.

Development stages of this program:

  • First, specialists collect data on resource consumption for the company's last year of operation. This is aided by the readings from gauges as well as accounting documents;

  • Then (if necessary) an energetic inventory of buildings and structures is carried out. The reasons for the unjustified consumption of energy resources are clarified. Possibilities for saving energy are evaluated;

  • Targets and indicators for energy consumption are defined. Energy efficiency measures are developed and technical and economic indicators of these measures are calculated. The amount and source of funding are determined;

  • The energy efficiency program passport is being developed.

Important points when developing and implementing energy saving programs:

  • Household organizations must reduce their consumption by at least 3% annually. Budget managers monitor compliance with this requirement, and savings in excess of 3% remain in the company or institution;

  • It is forbidden to buy goods that are inefficient in terms of energy consumption. These are incandescent lamps, etc. At least 5% of the lighting fixtures purchased must be LED lamps. At least 10% of the total number of insulating glass units installed must have a low-emission coating;

  • A compulsory event is the installation of measuring equipment.

For organizations that carry out regulated activities (electricity, water, heat transfer, etc. ), the energy saving and energy efficiency program is developed for 3 years, if there is an investment program - for the duration of the program.
