EnTRAINER’s Project Tools Framework for Energy Transition Audits Towards Decarbonization

This paper presents the tools framework that were developed in the context of the EnTRAINER LIFE21 CET project. The tools that comprise the framework were built to allow energy managers and energy experts of industries to assess the energy and CO2 saving potentials but also to aid during the energy transition audits that will occur during the project. The framework is composed of four tools. The first tool utilizes the cumulative sum (CUSUM) methodology to detect consumption anomalies or extreme deviations from the baseline pattern of the company’s consumption. The second tool offers a quantified estimation of the building’s insulation status, while the third one is composed of four simple questions that can detect energy efficiency potentials in the involved site. Finally, the fourth tool aims to create part of the energy transition audit report that will occur in the project.
