Don't Be Late to Get Your Mandatory Energy Study Done!

The second period of the energy survey, which companies with energy consumption of 5,000 TEP and above must have every four years compulsory, ends this year. Enervis General Manager Osman Kipoğlu, reminding that penal action will be applied to enterprises that do not conduct surveys until the end of 2019, said that support can be obtained from Enervis, which is authorized as an energy efficiency consultancy company (EVD). In Turkey, 40 percent of electricity consumption and 26 percent of natural gas consumption take place in industry. This situation leads to an increase in energy imports and greatly increases the costs of companies. However, research shows that there is a potential for savings of at least 20 percent in industry, at least 35 percent in buildings and at least 15 percent in transportation. On the other hand, important steps are being taken to use energy effectively, to prevent energy waste, to alleviate the burden of energy costs on the economy and to protect the environment. One of them is the energy survey, which is mandatory for companies with an annual energy consumption of 5,000 TEP (Tons of Equivalent Oil) and above. The "Regulation on Increasing Efficiency in the Use of Energy Resources and Energy" dated 27.10.2011, measures to increase energy efficiency are included in section 10. In accordance with clause "b"; Industrial enterprises with a total annual energy consumption of 5,000 TEP or more and buildings operating in the service sector with a total construction area of over 20 thousand square meters are required to have an energy survey carried out every four years.
