Singapore: Energy Audit Scheme

The Scheme is designed to provide an impetus for industries to improve the energy efficiency of their operations. Its objective is to encourage industries that use large amounts of oil and gas to put in place a formal system for the management of energy use to improve their energy efficiency. Under the Scheme, companies can either use in-house staff or engage external energy audit specialists in carrying out their energy audits. Such audits, which are carried out every 3-5 years, would help industries to systematically identify opportunities for improving energy efficiency regularly. The companies could then take measures to improve the energy efficiency of their facilities.
