About the standard

In 2014, Standards Australia released the standard for energy auditing: AS/NZS 3598:2014, which sets out minimum requirements for commissioning and conducting three prescribed types of audits that identify opportunities for cost effective investments to improve energy performance.

Unlike the previous standard, this standard is a series of standards focused on particular economic sectors:

3598.1 Energy audits – Commercial buildings

3598.2 Energy audits – Industrial and related activities

3598.3 Energy audits – Transport related activities

This series of standards are a significant revision to the previous standard, AS/NZS 3598:2000. They are more rigorous, are outcomes-based and are focused on providing audit customers with actionable energy conservation measures.

To support the implementation of the standard across the industry, the EEC worked with the NSW government to develop a quick reference guide focused on commercial and industrial audits.
