OSTI ID:6553748

This workbook describes some simple methods by which the administrator, maintenance manager, or operator of a school can analyze energy uses, determine areas in which energy savings can be made, and estimate the magnitude of cost savings in accordance with U.S. Department of Energy procedures described as Class C Information Audits. It provides a do-it-yourself, fill-in-the-blanks approach to an energy-conservation program for schools that do not have full-time engineering personnel. Of necessity, it is a generalized approach which cannot be as detailed as an energy audit conducted by an engineering team. Although this workbook emphasizes the energy-intensive processes and some of the recognized areas of energy waste in schools, it should be used selectively because each building has its unique energy-use patterns.
