frequently asked Questions

When is an energy audit DIN EN 16247 mandatory? arrow

A regular energy audit has been mandatory for all non-SMEs since 2015 in accordance with Sections 8 - 8d EDL-G (Law on Energy Services and Other Energy Efficiency Measures). As part of the audit, the energy efficiency of the entire operation (buildings, systems, processes, etc.) is checked. If you are a small or medium-sized enterprise (SME), you are exempt from this obligation. 

How often does an energy audit have to be carried out? arrow

The law requires non-SMEs to have a regular energy audit every four years. This obligation does not apply to SMEs. Nevertheless, even as a small or medium-sized company, it is worthwhile to regularly check your energy consumption and exploit all potential savings.

Who can carry out the energy audit? arrow

The BAFA-funded energy audit may only be carried out by energy consultants who are registered on dena's list of energy efficiency experts in the category “Energy advice for non-residential buildings”.

Is energy advice for SMEs subsidized? arrow

The Federal Office of Economics and Export Control (BAFA) supports energy advice for SMEs with financial subsidies. The funding does not have to be repaid. How much funding you receive for your energy consulting depends, among other things, on the size of your company and the planned energy saving measures. Our IKOSIA experts will be happy to advise you.
