Definition of energy audit:

Article 2(25) – 2012/27 EU Directive

Definition of energy audit: Article 2(25)

“A systematic procedure with the purpose of obtaining

adequate knowledge of the existing energy

consumption profile of a building or group of buildings,

and industrial or commercial operation or installation

or a private or public service, identifying and

quantifying cost-effective savings opportunities, and

reporting the findings”

Energy Efficiency Act

The new Energy Efficiency Act (EEA) –

in force from May15, 2015.

Transposes

Directive 2012/27 / EC in Bulgaria

EEA is setting a new goal and expands

the scope of energy efficiency measures

according to the Directive.

4


Increasing energy efficiency –

part of sustainable development policy

EEA defines the energy efficiency improvement as a part of sustainable development policy

How to achieve?

Increasing energy efficiency in production, transmission, distribution and the end-use of energy.

Establishment of mechanisms for energy saving targets.

Market development and promotion of energy services provision.

Introduction of financial mechanisms.

5


Obligated persons under Energy Efficiency Act

Mandatory energy audits are applied to:

6

Manufacturing enterprises that are not SMEs according to the meaning of Art. 3 of Small and Medium Enterprises Act in Bulgaria;

Enterprises which provide services and are not SMEs

according to the meaning of Art. 3 of SMEs Act in Bulgaria;

Industrial systems whose annual energy consumption is

over 3000 MWh;

External lighting systems, located in villages with a

population of over 20,000 inhabitants.


Exempted persons from the mandatory Energy Audit (EA)

All obligated under Energy Efficiency Act enterprises,

applying energy or environmental management system

subject to certification by an independent body

compliant with European and International standards,

are exempted from mandatory Energy Audits, in case

that energy audit is included in the applied

management system.
