The Department of Energy (DOE) conducted an Energy Audit Spot Check on the compliance of the National Electrification Administration (NEA) with the Government Energy Management Program (GEMP) last 20 April 2022.

The agency was represented by its Energy Efficiency and Conservation (EEC) Officer, Deputy Administrator Sonia B. San Diego. The on-site energy audit inspection was assisted by Officer-in-Charge of Human Resources and Administration Department Annabelle P. Cruz, Officer-in-Charge of the General Services Division and EEC Focal Person Hernando N. Gabotero, GEMP Focal Person Estanislao D. Laxa, Jr. and Building and Ground Maintenance Head Geverglo S. Sotto. The DOE Energy Audit Team interviewed OIC Cruz and her group regarding the agency’s EEC programs as well as their best practices.

The NEA has garnered a score of 100% compliance with its spot check, resulting in an overall Energy Audit Rating of 94.5% equivalent to a Grade A, 5-star rating.

The performance assessment parameters of the spot check consist of the agency’s observance of measures for EEC. The DOE energy auditors deemed NEA’s updated energy efficiency systems for air conditioning, lighting, office equipment and fuels. ###
