Abstract: Energy plays a central role in all organisations, especially those are energy intensive. Energy audit was conducted at the Siddharth Institute of Science & Technology (SISTK), Puttur, to estimate the energy consumed in a daily and on annual basis. Energy auditing consists of several tasks which can be carried out depending on the type of audit & function of audited activity. It started with review of historical data of energy consumption, those data is important in order to understand the patterns of energy used. The next step is to setup an energy audit program. This program should start with survey of the site to gather the information of electrical equipments presently used. The energy audit discussed in this paper will only focused on Siddharth Institute of Science & Technology. It is carried out with an aim and analysis for identifying possible energy saving measures of this institute.
