Energy Audit Tools 
The Energy Audit Calculator can make figuring out energy costs around the school quick and painless.  Click here to download the Energy Audit calculator and here to download the Energy Calculator Guide.  Each worksheet page has a video icon link that you can click for a YouTube instructional video. 

Other Energy Audit Tools include:
  • A Watt Meter for measuring appliance energy use
  • A foot candle meter for measuring lighting levels
  • An infrared temperature gun for measuring temperature differences
  • A flicker checker for measuring lighting ballast types
  • A temperature/humidity pen for measuring humidity levels and air temperature
Energy Audit Tips  
  • Take the time to get accurate, reliable data
  • Work with your schools facility or custodial staff
  • Once you have taught the team how to perform successful room audits split into groups to cover more ground
  • Many rooms in the building may have the same layout.  If all the classrooms have the same lighting set up you can calculate the lighting costs for one classroom and then multiply by the number of classrooms.  This also works if each classroom has the same technology/smart board set up or if other common areas are the same.

Request a Volunteer  
If you would like a Lockheed Martin volunteer to work with your school please send an e-mail with your school name, number of students, and preferred times you would like to have a volunteer work with your students.  We will try to fulfill as many requests as possible, however we may not be able to match every school up with a volunteer.
