Just as with determining how much money can be saved by performing an energy audit, it’s difficult to estimate how long an energy audit will take in your facility.
There are many factors to consider when estimating how long an energy audit will take, but the biggest one is probably the overall facility size. Since we usually do large facilities with sizes ranging from 50 thousand square feet to 2 million square feet, we can roughly estimate how long an energy audit will take to perform on a facility around that size.
For a simple preliminary audit on a facility sized around 100,000 sq ft, an energy audit will usually only take a day to do a walkthrough, and about a week to calculate savings and prepare a report.
For a more in-depth scoping audit on a facility sized around 100,000 sq ft, an energy audit will probably take two to three days to complete a walkthrough, and around a week to calculate savings and prepare a report.
For the most in-depth audit possible, the investment-grade audit, on a facility sized around 100,000 sq ft, an energy audit will generally involve a three to six day walkthrough, and anywhere from one to three weeks to complete a report.
If you have a smaller or larger facility, an industrial facility, or if you have a facility with an unusually high number of energy-consuming devices, the time required to complete an audit can vary greatly.
