Because Planning for which data to collect, how to collect them and how often to collect them helps ensure the availability of the data needed to maintain the energy review and the monitoring, measurement, analysis and evaluation processes.
Because the process of identification of energy types and evaluation of energy use and energy consumption leads the organization to determine areas of significant energy use and identify opportunities for improving energy performance.
Because Significant Energy Use (SEU) is defined as per Clause 3.5.6 as energy use accounting for substantial energy consumption and/or offering considerable potential for energy performance improvement
Top management has the overall responsibility for meeting the requirements of this document. Even if it delegates some responsibilities, the overall accountability still stays with top management
The scope of an energy audit can comprise a detailed review of the energy performance of an organization, significant energy uses SEU(s), systems, energy-using processes and/or equipment
Because Opportunities can also emerge over time due to changes in operating loads and parameters, equipment degradation and improvements in available technologies and techniques
For new facilities, improved technologies and techniques, alternative energy such as renewables or less polluting types of energy options should be considered.
The completed filled-in answer is: EnMS team members should be encouraged to continually develop, maintain and improve their knowledge, skills and expertise
