Summary

This practical reference serves as a comprehensive resource for performing energy audits in commercial facilities.

It discusses procedures and guidelines for a wide range of business and building types, such as schools, restaurants, medical facilities, grocery stores, laboratories, office buildings, religious facilities, libraries, and warehouses.
