Abstract
This paper presents the results of two energy industrial audits carried out in Mexico City by a team of professors and students of the Missouri-Rolla University (UMR) and the Autonomous Metropolitan-Ixtapalapa University (UAM). This international interchange examines the potential of technological transfer of programs of the Industrial Advising and Analysis and Energy Diagnosis Centers which are sponsored by the Office of Industrial Technologies of the U.S. Department of Energy (Program IAC-DOE). The paper describes the applied technology by the international team to identify the opportunities of saving energy through visits to the manufacturing enterprises installations. These are classified in accordance with the potential saving areas (for instance: lighting, air compressors, motors, etc.) and include the energy saving, its associated costs, the implementation costs and the simple return period. The paper presents a study case related to two Mexican plants. A revision is made of one year statistics that enlists the energy saving opportunities found by the UMR-IAC team during eight years of operation for illustration purposes. The statistics are based in about 25 audits performed in the U.S. and encompass the energy and demand saving, the associated costs, the implementation costs an the simple return period. Also, the performance of

Se hace una revision de las estadisticas de un ano que enlista las oportunidades de ahorro de energia encontradas por el UMR-IAC durante ocho anos de operacion, con el proposito de ilustrar. Las estadisticas se basan en unas 25 auditorias realizadas en los Estados Unidos y comprenden los ahorros de energia y de demanda, los costos asociados, los costos de implementacion y el periodo simple de retorno. Tambien se describe la realizacion de las auditorias conjuntas como una forma valida de transferencia tecnologica en dos vias, de interes para ambas instituciones educativas. El articulo concluye las ventajas del acercamiento conjunto hacia las auditorias de energia y el potencial para el desarrollo de un programa mas ambicioso de transferencia tecnologica. El valor educacional de la experiencia anterior para el profesorado y los estudiantes involucrados en el intercambio academico se ve tambien como una oportunidad importante para seguir con dichas actividades.}
