An energy audit conducted on a building is also known as a building energy assessment. It can summarise the whole idea of a building’s energy use. Conducting an audit can help business owners determine how much energy a building uses and how much of this energy is useful. It also determines where it is losing energy and which problem areas and fixes should prioritized to make the building more efficient and comfortable. An energy audit should be the first step before making and energy-saving improvements. A targeted audit was conducted on the selected hostel building to identify the energy management opportunities and possible implementation of energy efficiency retrofit techniques. Regression and CUSUM analysis were performed on the obtained data to study the pattern of energy consumption. Recommendations were made on the energy management opportunities for energy conversation and saving with the estimation of carbon footprint.
