Singapore Energy Audits
John Herbert
Registered Energy Assessor (REA)
Lowering your operating costs without sacrificing
occupational comfort is a key competitive advantage helping
you lower your costs, and boost profits for your organisation.
Energy Audits are undertaken range from the smallest
energy assessments to major projects.
Surveys indicate that buildings are operating incorrectly, have
inappropriate operating contracts or are waste money through inefficient
energy usage. And too often the energy management systems, specified
to reduce operating costs, do not function as intended causing
energy wastage.
Energy costs are rising every year, tariff increases threatened, and oil prices
are soaring, all effecting your bottom line - Kelcroft helps reduce your energy
bills, lowering costs, and that helps improving competitiveness in the
marketplace.
Energy Audit
Kelcroft's energy audits begin with the collection and analysis of all
information that effect your buildings energy consumption. Analyzing the
performance of your existing systems and installation, existing management
techniques and utility bills.
We compare your facilities energy performance with published standards
for your premises and activities of a similar nature and provide proposals.

Energy engineering solutions for business to reduce operational expenses
without jeopardizing customer comfort across Asia. Auditing building
energy consumption is a key competitive factor in modern times.
In 2017 the Singapore Energy Authority website reported that the
electricity tariff was SGD 20.7 cents/kwh, depending on the exact
exchange rate that approximates to HKD 1.173 cents/kwh.
Energy Audit Reporting
An energy audit report summarizing our findings is sub-divided into three energy management sections, namely:
Within these three sectors, we explain energy saving options and opportunities for
your managers to implement.
Housekeeping
Housekeeping measures are improvements involving virtually no cost, and involve
relatively simple steps to start achieving energy savings. For example training courses to
increase energy consumption awareness amongst your staff, or as part of a staff
induction programme.
Operation measures
These improvements necessitate some change within your existing regime or
maintenance strategy.
For example lighting modifications, improved the switching arrangement or
implementing a new lamp replacement strategy to benefit from the efficacy of
the latest technology.
In the majority of cases, the working environment for your customers and
employees is improved.
Capital works
Capital works are major improvements to your premises that will require
significant expenditure.
Examining your installation, analyzing your operating and maintenance costs, and
evaluating possible options for energy conservation. Viable proposals that will
benefit you financially are offered for appraisal.
The energy analysis would comprise a practical and economic evaluation of energy
saving options. This evaluation would include an investigation of all the
various elements that contribute to your owning and operating costs.
Typically these would comprise:
- Initial expenditure - capital required to purchase the plant or equipment
- Cost in use - the calculated running costs for the installation based on the data retrieved during the survey
- Investment analysis - payback and net present value calculations, which are tools to establish if a proposal would recoup your investment during a specific period).
Payback hurdles vary by company and sector. For example, a commercial or
industrial customer might seek 5 year payback, whilst an energy
service company or utility may accept a 10 year payback horizon.
An economic analysis examines alternatives, gauging the overall
viability of a particular energy-saving strategy.
In summary Kelcroft energy audits are good for your organisation,
helping you gain a competitive edge in the market, and boost profits.
