The British Standards Institution retains ownership and copyright of this PAS. BSI Standards Limited as the publisher of the PAS

8、reserves the right to withdraw or amend this PAS on receipt of authoritative advice that it is appropriate to do so. This PAS will be reviewed at intervals not exceeding two years, and any amendments arising from the review will be published as an amended PAS and publicized in Update Standards. This

9、 PAS is not to be regarded as a British Standard. It will be withdrawn upon publication of its content in, or as, a British Standard. The PAS process enables a specification to be rapidly developed in order to fulfil an immediate need in industry. A PAS can be considered for further development as a

10、 British Standard, or constitute part of the UK input into the development of a European or International Standard. Relationship with other publications There are a number of standards in existence and in development in the field of energy audits and energy assessments. PAS 51215 fits into this body

11、 of work with its focus on the competencies required of a lead energy assessor, rather than on the energy assessments or energy audits themselves. The BS EN 16247 series is a European standardization series, which covers different aspects of energy audits. It is intended that PAS 51215 will compleme

12、nt and coexist with this suite of standards. BS EN ISO 50001 specifies requirements on energy management systems and also gives guidance for their use. ISO 50002 1) , the second in this suite of international standards covers general requirements common to all energy audits. It is also intended that

13、 PAS 51215 will complement and coexist with these standards. 1)In preparation.iii PAS 51215:2014 The British Standards Institution 2014 Presentational conventions The provisions of this standard are presented in roman (i.e. upright) type. Its requirements are expressed in sentences in which the prin

14、cipal auxiliary verb is “shall”. Commentary, explanation and general informative material is presented in coloured italic type. They do not constitute normative elements, and as such are not requirements. The introduction and informative annexes (Annex A, Annex B and Annex C) also do not constitute

15、a normative element of the PAS and as such are not requirements. Contractual and legal considerations This publication does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users are responsible for its correct application. Compliance with this PAS cannot confer immunity from legal

16、 obligations.iv PAS 51215:2014 The British Standards Institution 2014 Statement by DECC The Energy Savings Opportunity Scheme (ESOS) is the UKs approach to implementing Article 8 of the EU Energy Efficiency Directive (2012/27/EU) 1, which requires all Member States to introduce a programme requiring

17、 large enterprises to conduct regular energy efficiency assessments by appropriately qualified and/ or accredited individuals. Those individuals can be either in-house experts or external resources such as consultants and energy service providers. The Government aims for PAS 51215 to be applied to “

18、lead energy assessors” conducting ESOS compliant energy efficiency assessments. The Department of Energy 2) identify the need for additional assessment resource; 3) discuss and agree with the organization the requirements for an assessment team; 4) check that an assessment team is competent to carry

19、 out the relevant elements of the energy efficiency assessment assigned to them; 5) develop and manage the programme of work; 6) review and approve the outcome of energy efficiency assessment findings by the assessment team; b) discussing and agreeing with the organization a chosen method for the en

20、ergy efficiency assessment; c) leading the activities and processes of an energy efficiency assessment; d) signing off the energy efficiency assessment report, in order to confirm that the energy efficiency assessment: 1) has been carried out in an independent manner by competent personnel; vii PAS

21、51215:2014 The British Standards Institution 2014 2) has been carried out using the method agreed (for example, this might be BS EN 16247-1, ISO 50002 3)or another methodology such as one developed within an organization); 3) covers the planned scope of the energy efficiency assessment; 4) is based

22、on appropriately detailed calculations of the opportunities for improvement; 5) includes an energy efficiency assessment report that provides clear and concise information on the opportunities for improvement; and 6) meets any other criteria agreed with the organization; e) being accountable for the

23、 findings, recommendations and content of the energy efficiency assessment report. 3)In preparation. 0.5 “Assessment” versus “audit” 4) The differences between an audit and an assessment are subtle. It is a subject that causes much discussion within the energy efficiency industry, and is one on whic

24、h most people will have a strong opinion. Fundamentally, an assessment deals primarily with examining adherence to a set of concepts and principles, and evaluating the outcome through both quantitative and qualitative data. The focus tends to be on the output, rather than the route taken to get ther

25、e. On the other hand, the focus of an audit is primarily on procedures and processes that are to be followed, and is conducted through checking the adherence of people, equipment and activities to these procedures and processes. It is generally conducted through a series of controlled checks and bal

26、ances. The dissection, analysis and evaluation of results is, in most cases, the secondary focus of an audit. PAS 51215 deals with the competence of a lead energy assessor conducting energy efficiency assessments by approaching it through the method of an assessment; while the concepts and principle

27、s of lead energy assessor competences are prescribed in this specification, the processes and procedures themselves are not. That said, it is clear that a competent lead energy assessor needs to have a sufficient understanding of the processes and procedures for effective energy audits, particularly

28、 when overseeing an assessment team. It is for this reason that the informative annexes contain examples of ways in which the competences might be demonstrated. 4)Further discussion on the differences between assessment and audit can be found on the European Foundation for Quality Management website: http:/www.efqm.org/blog/ whats-the-difference-between-assessment-and-audit.
