SIMPLE AND AFFORDABLE ENERGY MAPPING

Energy mapping

Companies that use more than 2,8 GWh of energy per year are subject to the requirement for statutory energy mapping, Energy Mapping Act (2014:266) (EKL). 

If no energy survey has been conducted previously, the first one must be submitted no later than October 11, 2026. Previous energy surveys continue with 4-year cycles.

From 1 January 2025, companies with large annual energy consumption (rather than large companies) must report according to the Act on EKL.  

  • For companies with over 2,8 GWh of energy use per year.
  • Deadline October 11, 2026 if no mapping has been done before
  • From January 1, 2025, companies with large annual energy consumption (rather than large companies) must report according to the Energy Performance Certificate Act.

Alternatives to statutory ECL

A traditional energy survey is carried out by an external energy surveyor from a consulting firm. This person produces a report based on a one-time measurement of the company's energy use.

A more modern way of working is through an energy management system like SenseNode. Energy AnalyticsIn this, measurement values ​​are retrieved from streaming data from all necessary measurement points in complete time series and with a report function.

If you choose to work with an energy management system that Energy Analytics The company receives a report that takes into account seasonal variations, boom/bust and production variations. At the same time, the organization can work with behavior, routines and concrete data even between reports.

Since the company has SenseNode ENERGY analytics constantly updated data and report function, the quantitative part of an energy survey can be done remotely through existing analysis– and reportfunctions.

New legislation

The latest revision of the EU Energy Efficiency Directive (EED) requires companies using between 2,8 GWh and 23,6 GWh of energy per year to conduct an energy audit. This can be done either through a certified energy auditor or with an energy management system. If the company has an annual use of more than 23,6 GWh, it must have implemented an energy management system by 11 October 2027.

FAQ

What applies to company groups?

As a company group, you do an overall EKL including all sites. You can prioritize what should be included, based on those with the highest energy usage. Each individual site needs to do its energy mapping according to the statements in the overall energy mapping.

I rent my premises, should they be included in EKL?

You are only obliged to map the parts of the business that you have control over. In rented premises, the tenant usually has control over the energy of his own business, but not over the building's energy use. However, the Energy Agency recommends that you work with your property owner to get an overall picture of your energy use.

How do I report?

The report that is made must be kept by the companies and does not need to be sent in. The Energy Agency can, however, request the report in connection with supervision, follow-up and via a reporting procedure.
