Energy Auditor

An energy auditor conducts systematic assessments of a building or organisation's energy use to identify inefficiencies and recommend improvement measures.

Definition

An energy auditor performs structured assessments of energy use — ranging from walkthrough surveys to detailed investment-grade audits — identifying inefficiencies and quantifying potential savings from recommended measures. Auditors may be internal specialists or external consultants, and audits are sometimes mandated under regulatory schemes like ESOS.

Why It Matters

A qualified auditor brings both technical expertise and independence, which is often required for schemes like ESOS or ISO 50001 certification.
