US Dept of Energy Suggestions for: Low- and no-cost energy-efficiency measures as it pertains to lowering electricity needs for an energy efficient facility operation.

There are some practices that aren’t just good, they’re the best. And the ideas below are based on best practices from leading ENERGY STAR partners who know how to trim their energy waste with nothing more invested than time and elbow grease. But remember … low-hanging fruit grows back quickly. Have a plan for how to monitor and maintain savings to avoid snapback.

• Conduct a nighttime audit to find out what’s on afterhours that shouldn’t be.
• Improve operations and maintenance practices by regularly checking and maintaining equipment to ensure it’s functioning efficiently.
• Optimize start-up time, power-down time, and equipment sequencing.
• Revise janitorial practices to reduce the hours that lights are turned on each day.
• Perform monthly maintenance of heating and cooling equipment to guarantee efficient operation throughout the year.
• Review and emphasize the financial and environmental results of a preventative maintenance program for major systems and components.
• Set goals and a methodology to track and reward improvements.
• Visually inspect insulation on all piping, ducting and equipment for damage (tears, compression, stains, etc.).
