Energy saving and energy efficiency program

The specialist collects data on the consumption of resources in the companyDevelopment of energy efficiency programs in the company

Energy savingIt is a set of measures to reduce the degree of negative impact on the environment, as well as to save money on the purchase of energy resources.

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

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

  • organizations whose activities are subject to government regulations;

  • state and municipal institutions;

  • enterprises engaged in the production or transport 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 annually spend more than 50 million rubles on fuel and energy sources.

Purpose of the program- saving heat and electricity, natural gas, motor fuel, water, etc. , competent use of resources, as well as the organization of a general comprehensive approach when performing various energy saving procedures.

The planned goals are achieved:

  • increasing the productivity of electricity and heat supply systems, water supply and sewerage;

  • use of highly efficient equipment and materials;

  • introduction of the latest and proven energy saving technologies;

  • installation of measuring devices;

  • organizing various measures aimed at the economical use of energy and resources. For example, employee training, monitoring the operation of heating equipment, monitoring the dynamics of energy consumption, etc.

Based on these regulatory documents, an energy saving program is being developed:

  • "On saving energy and increasing energy efficiency";

  • "On requirements for regional and municipal energy conservation programs. . . ";

  • "On additional measures to encourage energy savings";

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

  • "On the procedure for determining the requirements for programs in the field of energy saving and increasing the energy efficiency of organizations that perform the prescribed activities"

The above program includes:

  • Information on target indicators that can show a decline in consumption in physical terms and in comparable conditions;

  • List of energy saving measures (organizational, administrative, technological, aggregate and automation);

  • Explanation;

  • Passport program.

Stages of development of this program:

  • First, experts collect data on resource consumption for the last year of the company's operation. This is aided by meter readings as well as bookkeeping documentation;

  • Then (if necessary) energy research of buildings and structures is carried out. The reasons for unjustified consumption of energy resources are being clarified. Energy saving opportunities are assessed;

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

  • An energy efficiency program passport is being prepared.

Important points in the development and implementation of energy saving programs:

  • Budget organizations must reduce their spending by at least 3% annually. Budget administrators monitor compliance with this requirement, and savings of over 3% remain in the enterprise or institution;

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

  • The obligatory event is the installation of measuring devices.

For organizations that perform regulated activities (transmission of electricity, water, heat, etc. ), the Energy Saving and Energy Efficiency Program is developed for 3 years, if there is an existing investment program - for the duration of the program.
