Abstracts: Today for finding the best strategy for energy saving in the industry, energy audit is the best option. The energy audit is the key for decision-making in the area of energy management. A systematic approach, to monitor industrial-energy consumption and to pin-point sources of wastage, is known as energy audit. Any savings in energy directly adds to the profit of the company. The cost of energy inputs, viz. electricity and fuel are increasing and excessive consumption of energy eat up the profits of the company. Audit is required to identify the most efficient and cost-effective Energy Conservation Opportunities (ECOs) or Measures (ECMs). Energy conservation opportunities (or measures) can consist in more efficient use or of partial or global replacement of the existing installation.
