Energy Audit

Are you interested in knowing how much energy your office or lab uses? We can quantify your plug load and work with you to develop ways to make your space more efficient. 

How Much Power is Your Department Using?

Our SSIT members can come to your lab or office to monitor the energy usage of your electronic equipment. Kilowatt monitors will be placed in your outlets and left for a week (or month) to gather how much energy your unit uses. After this, our team will generate a report of recommendations on how to decrease your usage. We then will schedule a follow-up assessment to see if a reduction has occurred.  Please note that this will not account for HVAC systems. 

Responsibilities of Requestee: Ensure that the kilowatt meters are not touched or moved, and complete a pre-and post-test on energy usage. 

Time Commitment: 1-4 weeks 

Advanced Notice Needed: 2 weeks
