for quantitatively determining the greenhouse gas emissions that play an active role in any production process and monitoring the environmental efficiency of activities and facilities. Since carbon footprints are estimated to represent 50% of the entire ecological footprint, its calculation is one of the essential parameters for identifying particularly harmful activities and reducing environmental damages stemming from human activities.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><b>How is the carbon footprint calculated?<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">In calculating the carbon footprint, not just CO2 emissions are accounted for, but all those gases that are included in the definition of greenhouse gases and indicated by the Kyoto protocol, <a style=\"color: #000000;\" href=\"http:\/\/d.m.th\/\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=http:\/\/d.m.th&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1693086831324000&amp;usg=AOvVaw0nzNbMm3wgdEzOlpBAt44n\">d.m.th<\/a>.

Energy analysis, or energy audit, is a report, generally created by sector professionals and commercial technicians, which helps the client understand how energy consumption is distributed over the day, months and year and what those technical interventions are. It can be done to save money and improve someone&#8217;s situation. This analysis is required and carried out by anyone who wants it: from large companies to small neighborhood stores and plays a crucial role in forging a trust relationship between the customer and the company that provides the audit.<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span style=\"font-family: Calibri; color: #000000;\"><br \/><b>Who can design an energy audit and how to know if it&#8217;s done best?<\/b><\/span><\/div>\n<div><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri Light'; font-size: small; color: #000000;\">Very often, in the context of energy consumption analysis, confusing and contradictory information is given that keeps the user from making a decision.

This is how cold, incompetent, and overly generic analyses are born. AQSCERT knows this very well and, in fact, has decided to equip i myself with a team of professionals dedicated solely to designing and implementing energy analysis: free, precise, clear, detailed and obviously customized. The client will speak to a single interlocutor, a dedicated technician and will never receive a generic brochure, but an audit born from a detailed analysis of the client&#8217;s professional reality with dedicated advice and suggestions. The solution that is proposed to the client is really specific to his reality. Therefore, a cooperation that guarantees trust between the two interlocutors and above all support at every stage, even after the installation of new systems, for example.

So let&#8217;s go and find out all the fundamental elements you&#8217;ll find in your professional AQSCERT energy analysis.<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri Light'; font-size: small; color: #000000;\">Analysis of current consumption: find out how much the company consumes daily, seasonally and annually.<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri Light'; font-size: small; color: #000000;\">\u2022 Analysis of the company&#8217;s production system: it is important to understand how the company works. In fact, there may be some negativities associated with the production system in use, such as outdated systems, which can nevertheless be easily resolved with the proposal of new solutions.<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri Light'; font-size: small; color: #000000;\">\u2022 Analysis of the structural characteristics of the building: by carefully studying the parts of the company, from the roof to the spaces, possible adjustments for energy efficiency can be proposed.<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri Light'; font-size: small; color: #000000;\">\u2022 Information on any future consumer implementations: speaking to the customer, if the company already knows it is planning to install new machinery in the short or medium term, it is clear that consumption will increase. So you should consider this for an accurate energy analysis, it is always wrong to look only here and now.<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri Light'; font-size: small; color: #000000;\">\u2022 Peak consumption analysis: through bills can be understood when the company consumes more and if there is a drip. Only in this way will it be possible to find the optimal solution for the client.<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri Light'; font-size: small; color: #000000;\">\u2022 Possible opportunities for improvement through other interventions: AQSCERT energy analysis does not only look at installations or major modifications. To improve a company&#8217;s energy efficiency, it is often also important to take care of the details. From recharging (improving lighting systems) to controlling machines to controlling the power class.<br \/>General technical-installer indications: a very important element in energy analysis is that of understanding and imagining the client what will need to change and where it will need to be intervened in order for the situation to be specifically prefigured.<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri Light'; font-size: small; color: #000000;\">\u2022 Money-saving solutions: AQSCERT, through accurate deprecation plans, suggests financing or operating lease solutions to clients. the system is amortized in the shortest possible time.<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri Light'; font-size: small; color: #000000;\">Additional benefits: in energy analysis it is important for the consumer to understand all those additional benefits that will come if you decide to accept the proposal of the new action plan such as improving the energy and convenience class. These implications give a new aspect to the company which, even at the communicative level, becomes more attractive, being green and sustainable.<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri Light'; font-size: small; color: #000000;\">Programmatic process: the last crucial step to find in your energy analysis, in case of acceptance, is to explain the program process that will follow, the time and all the necessary documentation.<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri Light'; font-size: small; color: #000000;\">This information is essential and relying on the AQSCERT team, made up of people like you, willing to explain and speak clearly and honestly to your customers, is the best solution you can make to get an energy analysis truly capable of changing your life.<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span style=\"font-family: Calibri; color: #000000;\"> <\/span><\/div>\n<div><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri Light'; font-size: small; color: #000000;\"><b>Why AQSCERT shpk?<\/b><\/span><\/div>\n<div><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri Light'; font-size: small; color: #000000;\">AQSCERT SHPK, is a conformity assessment organization accredited for the certification of iso 50001 and ISO 14001 management systems and has a long experience in this field within and outside the territory of our country.

The reason why there is an obligation to design the safety and coordination plan of the KPS lies in the fact that many hazards can be encountered on the construction site and often accidents occur at work.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">These places, in fact, due to the nature of the activities that are carried out within them, are the most dangerous in the world of work.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The document is required by law and is used to reduce or completely eliminate risks associated with tasks performed on the ground by workers. In this article we want to gather 9 things to know about security and coordination. Follow current regulations carefully and make your company safer and more productive.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong> <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><b>What is the security and coordination plan?<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The plan consists of a technical report and descriptions relating to the complexity of the work to be carried out and each critical phase of the construction process, aimed at preventing or reducing hazards to the safety and health of workers, including particular hazards with reference to the risks arising from the possible discovery of unexploded combat tools at construction sites affected by excavation activities,  as well as the cost assessment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Therefore, the security and coordination plan is a fundamental document that is part of the procurement contract and has the main objective of reducing the risks present at the construction sites.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Within it cannot be missed the phases of work carried out on a construction site, the risks associated with processes, preventive and protective measures that must be taken to protect workers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><b>Is the security and coordination plan always mandatory?<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Another question employers often ask themselves is whether the safety and coordination plan is also mandatory for their company. Let&#8217;s start by saying the answer is no: security and coordination plan isn&#8217;t always required.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">There are cases when it is mandatory (indicated in Title IV of Legislative Decree 81\/2008), as p.sh. when several companies operate on the site, regardless of the type of shipyard, duration and interventions required.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">However, it is not mandatory if only one company operates on site and when emergency interventions are carried out, like those intended to prevent imminent dangerous events.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><b>When is a PSC drawn up?<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The drafting of the PSC must be done in the preliminary phase, at the opening of the shipyard. Therefore, risk analysis procedures are carried out before work activities begin on a construction site.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Differences between the OPERATIONAL SECURITY PLAN and THE COORDINATION OF THE POS and the KPS Security Plan<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Although they look similar in name, the POS Security Operational Plan and the Security and Coordination Plan are not the same. Both, however, contain a construction site&#8217;s risk assessment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The POS security operational plan is the plan for the management of construction sites and is the responsibility of the owner of the company responsible for carrying out the work. The safety and coordination plan is instead the responsibility of the safety coordinator in the design phase of the CSP and outlines the operational stages that workers must face, while also identifying the risk situations to which they are exposed and the preventive and protective measures that must be adopted to improve. them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">POS is always mandatory while PSC is only mandatory in the cases highlighted in the previous paragraph. The KPS safety plan also identifies external risks and not just those associated with the work carried out at the site in question.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><b>Who cares about the PSC design?<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">As also underlying the work safety legislation, among the obligations of the coordinator for planning of the CSP, is also that of the drafting of psc. During the design of the work and in any case before the request for submission of bids, the project coordinator drafts the safety and coordination plan. The content is then subject to the attention of the Security Coordinator during execution (CSE), who may require modifications or intervention.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">A copy of the document should be shared with all those involved in the security management of the site.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Therefore, the drafting is done at the design stage, prior to the request for tenders for the contract. At this point, it can be proceeded with the drafting of the Operational Security Plan or POS of contractors or self-employed companies.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><b>Employer&#8217;s Obligations<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">As we have seen, it is not the responsibility of employers to draw up the KPS safety plan.

For the new standards, the &#8220;substituted standard reference&#8221; article is blank.&nbsp;  If your product falls within the scoes of one of these EC standards, the marking is voluntary during the coexulation period and mandatory after the expiration of this period. Therefore, you should check if your product falls within the scope of the available standards to verify if it is covered by them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Products included in the standard (first chapter of the standards) must have CE marking according to the dates shown in the table. When the &#8220;substituted standard reference&#8221; marking is not empty, CE marking of products covered by the harmonized standards continues to be mandatory. During the coexite period you can choose which version to use, the replacement or the new version, but after the coexite period has expired you can only use the revised version. This system allows you to adjust \u2014 usually within a year \u2014 to any changes in your product evaluation and\/or performance statement.

First you should check if it is covered by one of the current European Assessment Documents (EADs). You can consult the list on the European Commission website in a space called NANDOIV (New Access Notified and Defined Organizations). There is a specific page that contains the list of documents for the European Assessment. You may also view the content of the document, including its purpose, in the publications section of EOTAVI&#8217;s website. If your product falls into the throes of one of these documents, you can ask a Technical Evaluation Body (TAB) listed on the official TABVII register to evaluate your product for CE marking. If your product and its&nbsp; uses are not included in the subject of any European Assessment Document, you may ask a Technical Evaluation Body to draft a European Assessment Document. This process usually takes longer than if an EAD is already available for your product. The EOTA process is divided into two phases similar to those for the CEN process:<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u25a0&nbsp;Drafting documentation for European evaluation<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Evaluation&nbsp; by a technical evaluation body<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Facebook Instagram Linkedin Contact Kerkerse Offer Environment, environmental studies and environmental measurements Environment, environmental studies and environmental measurements Environmental impacts, public opinion and monitoring bodies, along with the perception of good or bad environmental management by large construction industries or companies, are key issues today.
