6 Stage Energy Audit Process

Green Wire Consulting will inspect existing buildings and provide an Energy Efficiency Audit report. The report is part of a suggested 6 stage energy audit process – formulated to ‘effectively identify’ all Energy Efficiency opportunities, set objectives and obtain the right operational outcomes. Refer to the table below for details of our energy audit recommended process.

Where Green Wire Consulting is different from other consultants, is in the ‘follow through’. Other Consultants usually simply deliver an energy audit and then promptly leave. Based upon agreed objectives, Green Wire Consulting can take responsibility to assist in the delivery and supervision of the whole project. Following through with organising multiple quotes & managing the project, ensuring that all objectives are successfully installed & operating correctly. This frees up each client to get on with their normal core business activities.
