The energy audit is the essential initial step to ensure a good definition of energy control actions. The in-depth study of the various energy-consuming equipments makes it possible to determine the actions and investments with best cost for the company. The analysis focuses on the energy consumption of production equipment and utilities (lighting, heating, air conditioning, ventilation, transport). Successful implementation of this approach requires, however, to take into account a number of prerequisites. This paper proposes a number of useful recommendations concerning the energy audit in order to achieve better results, and a case study concerning the lighting audit of a Moroccan company by showing the gains that can be made through this audit.<\/p>\r\n","references":"[1]\tMs. Shradha Chandrakant Deshmukh, Ms. Varsha Arjun Patil- Energy Conservation and Audit, International Journal of Scientific and Research Publications, Volume 3, Issue 8, August 2013.\r\n[2]\tPutri Zalila Yaacob and Abdullah Asuhaini Mohd.
