Introduction
The Energy Audit Scheme is implemented by the National Environment Agency (NEA) in partnership with major industrial consumers under the initiative of the National Climat Change Committee (NCCC).
The Scheme is voluntary, designed to provide an impetus for industries to improve the energy efficiency of their operations. Its objective is to encourage industries that use large amount of oil and gas to put in place a formal system for the management of energy use, to improve their energy efficiency.
Under the Scheme, companies can either use in-house staff or engage external energy audit specialists in carrying out their energy audits. Such audits, which are carried out every 3-5 years, would help industries to systematically identify opportunities for improving energy efficiency regularly. The companies could then take measures to improve the energy efficiency of their facilities.
The potential benefit of the Energy Audit Scheme is substantial, as it could result in potential cost savings that in turn help to improve the companies' competitiveness.
Participation
All industrial facilities, especially those whose operations are energy intensive, are urged to participate in the Energy Audit Scheme, as the collective efforts of our industries will make a significant impact in improved energy use and reduced emissions of air pollutants and carbon dioxide.
