As energy prices increase and the effect of global warming hits the world harder, the need of reducing our energy use, and by that decreasing our environmental footprint increases. According to the International Energy Agency the energy consumption hit a new record in 2019 with 419 EJ, corresponding to 36,6 Gt of carbon dioxide emissions. The building sector accounts for 40 % of the total energy consumption. According to the International Energy Agency, energy optimizing is the main key in the transit towards a more sustainable world and energy audits, or energy mapping, is in many cases the first step towards energy optimization. Sustainable Intelligence is a company working for long term, sustainable solutions for properties all over Sweden as well as Norway, Finland, Poland, and Latvia. Property automation is the main competence of the company. Another large sector at the company is the energy sector, where energy audits, energy declarations and energy consultations are made. This report aims to analyze the energy audit process of Sustainable Intelligence and hopefully find solutions to make their work more efficient. The study includes a case study where the energy audit process of Sustainable Intelligence was implemented and analyzed. The study showed that the current method used by SI has a good structure but that there is a room for improvements.
