What is ISO 17741-Energy savings of projects about?
ISO 17741 is an International Standard that specifies the general technical rules for measurement, calculation, and verification of energy savings in retrofits projects or new projects.
The purpose of ISO 17741 is to establish a set of general rules for measurement, calculation, and verification of energy savings of projects. These general rules are considered universal and are applicable irrespective of the measurement and verification (M&V) methodology used.
ISO 17741 specifies the basic procedure of M&V of energy savings of M&V plan. A common understanding of M&V on the project level is established by outlining how calculation methods for M&V could be selected under different project scenarios.
Who is BS ISO 17741-Energy savings of projects for?
BS ISO 17741 on energy savings of projects is useful for:
- Energy savings of projects manufacturers
- Energy savings of projects implementors
- Energy savings of projects specifiers
- Measurement and verification bodies and authorities
Why should you use BS ISO 17741-Energy savings of projects?
An energy savings project is a set of operations that entails finding possibilities to actively reduce energy usage in a building or facility and implementing a detailed project plan to install and commission energy.
The purpose of ISO 17741 is to provide the general technical rules for measurement, calculation, and verification of energy savings in retrofits projects or new projects.
ISO 17741 is intended as a set of principles, guidelines, and methods for the measurement and verification of energy savings that can be applied to a broad variety of projects.
ISO 17741 is designed to be used to quantify the energy savings over a specific period in the new projects or retrofit projects.
Overall, ISO 17741 can help you reduce the technical and financial barriers in the measurement, calculation, and verification of energy-saving projects.
