From a 2018 Small and Medium Enterprise (SME) finance survey report SMEs contribute close to half of the GDP. This segment employs 80% of Kenya’s working population which includes the informal sector. reports show that about 46% of registered SMEs fold within the first 12 months. This volatility compounded with rising energy costs are what present the opportunity for energy efficiency. By improving how SMEs use energy, these companies can lower their operational costs and pass the benefits to their employees or their customers.
An energy audit is a detailed survey of the energy flows for purposes of conservation. This assessment cuts across industrial, residential and commercial sectors and requiring expertise from backgrounds of electrical, mechanical, thermal engineering as well as general project management.
