Energy assessments are a normal part of the corporate process for facility performance evaluation and energy project approval. Boiler MACT requires a one-time energy assessment of the facility utility system (supplied by the affected steam sources) or implementation of an ISO 50001 program. As part of MACT, should the facility choose to use energy efficiency credits to offset environmental constraints, an energy baseline is required for the efficiency credit calculations. This paper presents an approach used by the mill to conduct MACT audits, quantify the benefits, and prepare for implementation across a corporate fleet.
