Identifying Saving Opportunities through Resource
Assessment

17. Antea USA, Inc.Antea USA, Inc.
Energy & Water Assessments
• Focus on energy & water users
• Look for opportunities that stand out lights on when nothing is
happening, equipment running when it should be shutdown, leaks
at equipment, water running when equipment is shut down etc.
• Take notes, pictures and identify potential savings (electricity or
thermal ,water, wastewater)during walk through.
• Capture all opportunities and do not analyze during the
identification phase.
• Place opportunity into category – compressed air, heating water
reclaim etc.
• Prioritize opportunities to better manage implementation.

18. Antea USA, Inc.Antea USA, Inc.
Assessment Findings
Align saving opportunities into a category and prioritize
• Low Cost / Low Effort – Return on investment immediate to six
months, opportunity can be implemented with minimal effort
• Intermediate / Low to Medium effort – Return on investment
six months to 24 months, opportunity may require engineering,
and capital resources to implement
• Future / medium to major effort – Return on investment 24
months or longer, opportunity may require engineering, major
capital and plant and contractor resources to implement.
