The Benchmark Assessment service is designed to help businesses of all types evaluate their energy consumption against established standards. This service utilises a variety of benchmarks, including those from the European Union, CIBSE (Chartered Institution of Building Services Engineers), and IAC (Industrial Assessment Centers), among others.
Benchmark Assessment
Our comprehensive questionnaire covers critical areas such as energy management practices, billing analysis, and comparisons against Irish standards from SEAI (Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland). By gathering this information, we can identify gaps in your energy usage and management, and establish a solid baseline for future assessments or audits.
One of the primary benefits of the Benchmark Assessment is its ability to provide a fast, high-level analysis of energy consumption across multiple buildings, even if they are geographically dispersed. This helps clients quickly pinpoint areas for improvement and prioritize energy-saving initiatives, setting the stage for more detailed audits and targeted energy efficiency projects.
A Benchmark Assessment is Carried Out in 3 Steps
1
Data Collection and Questionnaire Completion
Distribute a detailed questionnaire to the client, covering essential areas such as energy management practices, billing analysis, and comparisons against national standards. Collect additional relevant data on energy usage from multiple buildings, including historical energy consumption records, building characteristics, and operational schedules.
2
Data Analysis and Benchmarking
Analyse the questionnaire responses and collected data to identify current energy consumption patterns. Compare the client’s energy usage against benchmarks from the European Union, CIBSE, IAC, and SEAI standards to identify discrepancies, inefficiencies, and areas needing improvement.
3
Reporting and Recommendations
Celtic Dynamics prepares a comprehensive report summarising the benchmark assessment findings, highlighting key areas of inefficiency and specific buildings or operations that require attention. Offer actionable recommendations for improving energy management practices, suggest immediate actions for quick wins, and propose a roadmap for detailed audits and targeted energy efficiency projects.
