This document (EN 16247-4:2xxx) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/CLC/JTC14

This Part provides additional material to Part 1 for the Transport sector and should be used in

This document is part of the series EN 16247 “Energy audits” which comprises the following:

An energy audit can help an organization to identify opportunities to improve energy efficiency.

This document is intended for the energy auditing of mobile assets e.g. vehicles, railways,

Due to the mobility of the assets in transport, energy auditing in this area is especially

challenging. For example, the meetings are harder to organize, the activities involved are harder

The first part of this document harmonizes the procedures for energy auditing in transport

systems. On the other hand, there are certain aspects which are particular to every transport

mode. For example, whereas the mobile assets in road transport are numerous, similar and

replaced frequently, the assets for marine and air transport are large and long-lived.

In order to state the energy auditing features of every transport mode, there is a specific section

Finally, the possibility of planning and selecting the mode of transport (and, sometimes, using

different modes for a unique transport service) is also a specific aspect of the transport activity.

NOTE An energy audit is not a fiscal method, the term and the nature of an energy audit are defined

This document is used in conjunction with and is supplementary to EN 16247-1, Energy

audits — Part 1: General requirements. It provides additional requirements to EN 16247-1 and

The procedures described here apply to the different modes of transport (road, rail, marine and

aviation), as well as the different ranges (local- to long-distance) and what is transported (i.e.

This document specifies the requirements, methodology and deliverables specific to energy

audits in the transport sector, every situation in which a displacement is made, no matter who

the operator is (a public or private company or whether the operator is exclusively dedicated to

This document advises on both the optimization of energy within each mode of transport, as

well as selecting the best mode of transport in each situation; the conclusions drawn by the

energy audit can influence decisions on infrastructure and investment e.g. in teleconferencing

Energy audits of buildings and processes associated with transport can be conducted

respectively with the EN 16247-2 Buildings and EN 16247-3 Processes e.g. pipelines, depots

and escalators/travelators. This part of the standard does not include the infrastructure which

With reference to EN 16247-5 the energy auditor shall have relevant knowledge of the different

modes of transport and energy sources used in transport by the organization subject to the

Due to the complexity, mobility and time critical nature of transport operations, the site visit

needs to be done within restrictions for both auditor and operator to allow both parties to

complete their duties, thus this clause (4.2) states distinct requirements to those specified in

importance. The auditor shall issue a summary of the purpose and main needs of the audit and

communicate this to the people with responsibility for the organization’s transportation. Where

As the audit progresses, the organization shall be informed of the results, deviations and any

outstanding issues. Likewise, the auditor shall communicate with the organization on issues
