An energy check over the internet being free of charge and offered by the Energy Agency of North Rhine-Westphalia provides the service of calculating the energy saving potential to small and medium-sized entities. It helps to discover energy saving potential in companies in an easy and yet precise way. And although it is not meant to replace consultation by an expert, it provides valuable information on how to save energy.
The check is subdivided into two stages. Using data from the annual energy bill it will be possible to determine within a few minutes how much energy can be saved as compared to other companies in the same industrial sector or whether one is already saving more energy than other competitors in the market.
Later on, if the user is interested in getting more precise information, it will be possible to have a more detailed energy check carried out which will provide the user with information on saving potentials in each individual business unit.
