Objetivos
It is intended that the trainee obtains an in-depth knowledge about the various phases of an energy audit, taking into account, among others, measurements of consumption, establish an Energy Rationalization Plan and verify its execution. It is also intended, in accordance with existing standards, in particular ISO 50001, to design and monitor the energy management system in a company
Resultados de aprendizagem e competências
The program contents describe the procedures for conducting energy audits, the improvement plans through the Energy Rationalization Plans and the Structure of the Audit Reports. On the other hand, it is necessary to make measurements of energy consumption and equipment efficiency, both in the audit phase and in the implementation phase of the improvement measures. Finally, companies should organize themselves in the energy management aspect. For most of these activities there are standards of reference.
In this way, the student will be able to carry out energy audits, measurement and verification of energy consumption and implementation of energy management systems in companies.

Métodos de ensino e atividades de aprendizagem
The teaching methodology will focus on a presentation of the programmed contents that will be carried out in person, followed by a research-based autonomous work of the students to deepen the subjects, solve problems and carry out small projects and also some laboratory tests on the use of equipment measurement in energy auditing.
The methodology will have a significant online component provided in the time of contact with students, based on the moodle platform that in addition to the availability of content and support material will also be used for discussion of topics and clarification of doubts and in other communication platforms with audio and video strand, synchronous or asynchronous.
