ABSTRACT
Energy audit is a technique developed to reduce unnecessary usage of energy, control and also
streamline processes leading to energy efficiency. Energy audit and its impact on a daily basis is high
and hence is of good significance. Energy Conservation over the years has been a key in terms of
saving excessive bills and building up unnecessary usage both domestically and industrially. The
world is not completely energy efficient yet, it should be a made sure that the process to ensure
optimum usage and saving wherever possible. In this paper we shall discuss in brief about energy
audit in a thermal power plant, techniques and ways data are obtained. India’s strive for complete
energizing is yet on the verge of completion, need for saving unused energy and also recovering waste
energy can be beneficial in developing an energy content environment. The energy audit carried out in
thermal power plant gives a presentation of the data and corners of collecting data.
