Course INSTRUMENTATION USE FOR ENERGY AUDITS

CIRCULAR CODE: 03/09

The Action Plan of the Energy Plan in Catalonia 2006-2015, together with that of the Energy Efficiency Strategy in Spain (E4) 2004-20012, determine a series of actions for the improvement of the energy efficiency.

One of the lines of action, coinciding with those contained in the recent European Directive 2006/32 on Energy Efficiency and Energy Services, is the strengthening of energy audits in particular, and services or technical assistance in general.

COURSE OBJECTIVE: to strengthen technical services so that they are able to diagnose, with solvency and quality, the state of energy efficiency in consumer establishments in Catalonia (tertiary and industrial sectors) through the use of advanced measurement tools currently available .
