3. Energy audits and energy efficiency
Energy Audit has become a needed step in identification and implementation of various energy efficiency opportunities and any sizeable energy efficiency project. In so doing, it assesses the effectiveness of management structure for controlling energy use and implementing changes.
SIS’s vast practical experience in the field of Energy Auditing (EA) can carry out comprehensive assessment of techno-economic performance of plants and equipment against the designed performance level or the industry best practice, aiming at optimising consumption levels along with specific operating control targets.

Case studies
Studies conducted with objective assessment measures to improve power supply and to ensure high reliability of the industry sectors. Such services were provided in 2008 for Sergaz and SAGEM.
In 2009, SIS emphasizes the need to set strategic priorities for the development of energy efficiency, energy conservation, energy audits and renewable energy. To this end, SIS is targeting to treble applications and projects related to the aforementioned energy sectors.
To meet the challenges proposed SIS has already proceeded to the recruitment of eleven engineers.
