Basic Audit Questionnaire

This document contains an energy auditing questionnaire to assess the lighting, building envelope, utilities, HVAC system, and schedule of a building. It collects information on the types of lighting and materials used, energy sources, metering, occupancy schedules, end uses of energy, and details of the HVAC system like setpoints, controls, and operation schedules. The goal is to understand how the building uses energy by gathering technical specifications and performance details of its various components and systems.
