16. Profitability of energy-saving actions
In the industrial sector, the profitability of an action is an essential criterion in the decision to undertake it. The calculation of this profitability will be based on a prior estimate of the energy savings expected from the implementation of this action. Hence the importance of accurate assumptions and criteria.
The ISO 50047 standard helps organizations of all sizes to make these calculations, by providing a harmonized methodology for determining the amount of energy they can save internally.
The second factor to be taken into account in this calculation is the value of the cost of energy over the lifetime of the type of action (behavioral, operating, investment). Profitability will be affected by changes in energy prices. The profitability of an action should therefore be calculated according to this trend, by establishing different...
