Cabe destacar la actividad de auditoría energética derivada de la trasposición parcial de la Directiva Europea de Eficiencia Europea 2012/27/UE, con el Real Decreto 56/2016. Las auditorías energéticas han pasado a ser usadas como instrumentos que permiten a las organizaciones conocer su situación respecto al uso de energía, detectar oportunidades para aumentar el ahorro y la eficiencia energética y optimizar la demanda energética de la instalación. Por todo ello, desde ANESE nos hemos esforzado en ayudar al cliente a reconocer la importancia de las auditorías energéticas como una oportunidad de ahorro energético, mostrándoles que son fundamentales a la hora de identificar puntos de mejora en el uso de la energía, y, gracias a su periodicidad cada 4 años, los procesos de mejora podrán ser continuos y por tanto creemos que es una forma de concienciar al cliente en materia de eficiencia energética. Sin embargo, la auditoría en sí misma no ahorra, es imprescindible materializar los proyectos de eficiencia energética para lograrlo. Las auditorías energéticas, según el RD 56/2016, tuvieron un periodo de cumplimiento de 9 meses que terminó el pasado 14 de noviembre, plazo marcado para que las grandes compañías se pongan a punto en materia de eficiencia energética. Recordemos que con esta obligación cuentan empresas de más de 250 trabajadores y que excedan a un volumen de negocio a los 50 millones de euros. La medida afecta a 3.800 empresas en España, con cerca de 27.000 establecimientos y locales. Desde la Asociación Nacional de Empresas de Servicios Energéticos calculamos que un 60% de las empresas susceptibles de cumplir con la medida desconocen que sea obligatorio realizar auditoria alguna dentro de sus instalaciones. Cada vez más empresas tienen como objetivo la eficiencia energética Aunque la eficiencia energética como concepto no termina de ser una realidad al 100%, desde ANESE consideramos que han sido saving and the energy refurbishment of buildings. It is worth noting the energy audit activity arising from partial implementation of the European Energy Efficiency Directive 2012/27/ EU, by means of Royal Decree 56/2016. Energy audits have gone from being used as instruments that allow organisations to find out about their status as regards energy use and identify opportunities to increase energy saving and efficiency, to a means of optimising the energy demand of the installation. For all those reasons, ANESE has worked hard to help the customer recognise the importance of energy audits as an energy saving opportunity, showing them that they are essential when identifying points to improve the use of energy. Thanks to the fact they are repeated every 4 years, the improvement processes are ongoing and as such, are a way of raising the awareness of the customer as regards energy efficiency. However, the audit in itself does not achieve the saving; energy efficiency projects must become a reality to achieve this goal. According to Royal Decree 56/2016, the energy audits had a compliance period of 9 months that ended last 14 November. This was the period established for large companies in which to implement energy efficiency measures. This obligation applies to businesses with over 250 employees and a turnover of more than €50 million. The measure affects 3,800 Spanish companies, covering around 27,000 establishments and premises. ANESE, the Spanish Association of Energy Services Companies, estimates that 60% of such companies required to comply with the measure are unaware that it is compulsory to carry out an audit on their installations. More and more companies are working to achieve energy efficiency Although energy efficiency as a concept has not fully become a reality, ANESE believes that there are many companies that have developed their business activity with the aim of achieving guaranteed savings. A clear example of this are the ESCOs and their projects. If we look at the ESCO’s activity in more detail, lighting projects are leading the implementation of this model.We only have to look at the number of city halls that are investing in renovating and modernising their street lighting, choosing efficient savings technologies that include ESCO guaranteed savings models. With this in mind, as proposed by the Association’s TechnologyWorking Group to help “organise” the market at same time as bringing clarity to both the end client and to the energy services companies themselves, in 2016 we
