An energy audit involves a thorough assessment of the energy consumption in your building. Its objective is to pinpoint areas of energy inefficiency and propose solutions to enhance energy performance, leading to reduced energy expenses.

The length of an energy audit depends on the size and complexity of the building being audited. On average, a commercial energy audit usually take up to several days.

Energy audits can be performed by certified energy auditors or energy professionals who have received training in energy auditing techniques. Enercon Malaysia is certified Energy Service Company (ESCO) with qualified energy auditors to assess the site and implement any energy efficiency products customized to your needs.

An energy audit typically includes a visual inspection of the building, an analysis of energy bills, a blower door test to measure air leakage, and an assessment of insulation levels, lighting, heating, and cooling systems.

An energy audit can help identify areas where energy is being wasted, leading to potential cost savings on energy bills. It can also improve indoor air quality, increase comfort, and reduce the building's environmental impact.

Energy audit recommendations can include improving insulation, sealing air leaks, upgrading lighting and HVAC systems, and installing renewable energy systems like solar panels. With Enercon Malaysia, energy audit is the preliminary assessment before implementing any energy efficiency products such as chiller and voltage optimiser, smart AC, hybrid magnetic motors etc. With this, clients would have the option to select their most feasible solution to their highest consumption equipment.

It is recommended that commercial energy audits should be done every 1-2 years. With SEDA EACG 2.0 granted to industrial and commercial building owners, they would be able to apply up to RM 100,000.

No, energy audits can be conducted on both old and new buildings. Even newer buildings can benefit from an energy audit to identify areas where energy is being wasted and to make recommendations for improving energy efficiency.

It is helpful to provide the energy auditor with any relevant information about the building, such as the age of the building, recent renovations, and energy bills. It is also important to make sure that all areas of the building are accessible for inspection.

Yes, energy audits can identify health and safety issues, such as carbon monoxide leaks and inadequate ventilation. The auditor may recommend improvements to address these issues in addition to energy efficiency upgrades.

Depending on the depth and scope of the audit, size of business and number of sites. With energy prices as they are now, a site consuming 500,000kwh p/yr could be audited for under 1% of their annual spend. Building owners that are qualified to apply for EACG can apply for up to RM 100,000.

While there are online tools and resources available to help building owners conduct their own energy audits, a professional energy audit is more thorough and accurate. A professional energy auditor has specialized equipment and training to identify energy waste and make targeted recommendations for improvements.

The time it takes to see a return on investment for energy efficiency upgrades depends on the cost of the upgrades and the amount of energy savings achieved. Some upgrades, such as installing LED lighting or programmable thermostats, can provide a quick return on investment, while others, such as upgrading insulation or HVAC systems, may take several years to pay for themselves.

A basic energy audit typically involves a visual inspection of the building and an analysis of energy bills, while a comprehensive energy audit includes more detailed testing and analysis of the building's energy systems and equipment.

Enercon Malaysia has been registered under ESCO under the Energy Commission. With our qualified energy auditors, we can provide you a detailed assessment free of charge with recommendations from our wide range of energy efficiency products.

The success of an energy audit can be measured by comparing energy bills before and after implementing the recommended energy efficiency measures. Other metrics like energy use intensity (EUI) and greenhouse gas emissions can also be tracked.

As sunlight cascades on the solar panels, Direct Current (DC) power is produced. The DC power flows to an inverter where the DC power is transformed into Alternating Current (AC) power. This AC power is what the electric grid and your home runs on. The power or energy then flows to power your home or directly to the electric grid. You can also divert the energy from solar panels to a battery to store excess energy. Batteries also operate as DC power however can power your house from a few minutes to a couple of hours.

Solar Panels require direct sunlight to produce power. Batteries are a great way to cover your power when the sun is not shining. It also works on cloudy days or when the sun isn't shining as bright. However, the power output can be slightly reduced as compared to their average optimal generation under a sunny day.

The price of solar power has dropped drastically over the past decade. Cost really depends on a lot of factors such as brand, size, type, and other things. Our smallest system would cost up to RM 12,000 for a 3kWp system.

The fuel source (the sun) is free, so you don't have to buy a fuel source to generate power. Because there isn't fuel needed, solar panels do not put off any harmful emissions, which is great for combatting climate change or reducing pollution. Solar power can also help you get power for an off-grid setup, so you don't have to rely on the electric grid 100% at the time. Additionally, Solar Energy is relatively efficient, durable, and long lasting.

Yes, as above, solar panels can work in the rain, though power output might be slightly altered. Rain is actually great for cleaning dust from your panels and reduces the need to clean your solar panels everyday.

On average of a 1000 kWh consumption , it is advisable to install up to 80% of your current consumption which is around 20 solar panels. However, Enercon Malaysia can conduct a site assessment on your intended site of installation and advise further on the suitable solar system.

Yes, especially if your solar system is connected to a battery as backup grid. You will continue to have power as according to your battery capacity.

Solar power is cheaper as it acts as a hedge for future spike in electricity tariff rates. With alternative power from the sun, you will consume less independently from the local electricity supplier.

Unless your solar energy system includes battery storage and you are fully off the grid, you will still receive a bill from your utility.

Solar panel systems are made of durable tempered glass and require little to no maintenance for the 25 to 35 years that they will generate power. In most cases, you don't even need to clean your solar panels regularly. If something does happen, most equipment manufacturers include warranties, although warranty terms depend on the company.

Buying or leasing your solar energy system depends on your reasons for going solar. If you are interested in maximizing the financial returns of your solar energy system, buying the system is probably a better decision for you. However, if you prioritize an easy, maintenance-free way to reduce your energy bills and help the environment, you should consider a solar lease.

Solar energy systems can last for 25 to 35 years, and removing and reinstalling them can be costly if you need to replace your roof. If your roof needs maintenance soon, you should complete it before you finish your solar installation.

Solar panels are generally very durable and capable of withstanding snow, wind, and hail. The various components of your solar power system will need to be replaced at different times, but your system should continue to generate electricity for 25 to 35 years.

There are a few criteria that everyone should use when choosing a solar installer. Confirm that they are certified, licensed, insured, have relevant experience, and can provide references. Enercon Malaysia is registered with SEDA as RPVSP and RPVI which implies that we are providing high quality services and trusted by local authorities.

Solar monitoring system can be accessed online whether through a phone app or desktop. Enercon Malaysia provides such services included in the solar system.

Solar panels can be installed on almost any kind of roof material and almost any roof structure (flat roof, pitched roof, etc.). Panels are attached to your roof with a racking system. The best racking system for your building depends on how the roof is structured and what type of roofing materials at site. Enercon Malaysia will recommend the racking system most appropriate for your property.
