Six cases were selected for detailed examination and it was concluded that the concept is a ``step-by-step`` tool which is both useful and necessary for new energy consultants. It also gives details on reporting requirements. Testing of the concept showed that some firms are sometimes reluctant to explain the finer points of their industrial processes to a consultant which results in the fact that it takes the latter a longer time to understand the processes involved.

The DEF concept should constitute a part of the energy survey, not the whole. It is important that involved parties are generally more familiar with the concept, its implementation should increase, follow-up should take place, information gained should be recorded centrally and more attention should be given to smaller firms. The papers related to the six cases selected for examination are presented. (AB)}
