2. Introduction
Target
The purpose of this document is to serve as manual diagnostic tool, characterization
and improvement of energy efficiency in industrial sectors, to be used in the first phase
of scouting energy audits within the PINE project.
The purpose of the application is to generate a self-assessment report as to show
sectorally, and in a customized manner, the efficient use of energy resources of
enterprises, allowing to determine the strengths and weaknesses of each, improving
continuously saving in its activity, and thus provide greater value to their products or
services.
Who is it for?
Welcome to the PINE self-assessment tool. This online tool enables companies from
six specific production sectors to make a self-assessment of their energy performance,
based on the last annual consumption period, and the main characteristics of their
energy consuming systems and devices. After completing the questionnaire the tool
gives a short summary of energy sources and consumption areas, and a set of generic
and specific recommendations with approximate ranges of potential savings associated
with the implementation of each specific recommendation. This assessment does not
replace a real energy audit and provides general recommendations that may not
always be implementable or feasible at each specific case.
This tool is aimed at small and medium enterprises whose activity falls within one of the
following industrial sectors and subsectors listed in the table below.
