It can create a distributed energy model based on cost centers or utilities, calculate performance indices, and identify where action is needed to improve the efficiency of a process step. The page presents diagnosis as the starting point for an optimization strategy, supporting both energy-cost reduction and access to government incentives. It states that energy diagnosis is mandatory for subjects covered by Article 8 of Legislative Decree 102/2014. ## Orange Start service Orange Start is Whitenergy's energy diagnostic service. It is performed by Energy Management Experts certified according to UNI CEI 11339. The service identifies consumption in production departments or individual utilities, such as thermal power plants and compressor rooms, using portable instrumentation and actual measurement campaigns. The page states that Orange Start complies with Legislative Decree 102/2014 and can support access to energy-efficiency incentives including TEE, Conto Termico, and regional calls. Key elements listed on the page are: - diagnosis certified by EGE experts; - technical analysis based on real data; - a business plan with investment scenarios; - regulatory compliance and access to incentives. ## Sectors addressed Orange Start is presented for multiple sectors: - **Industrial materials:** analysis of energy consumption in production departments, identification of inefficiencies, and proposed interventions to improve overall energy performance. - **Chemical:** identification of dispersion and waste in thermal and electrical processes, with the aim of improving sustainability and reducing operating costs. - **Textile:** monitoring of consumption in dyeing, drying, and finishing stages to optimize energy use and access incentives. - **Manufacturing:** energy diagnosis for machinery and production lines, with an intervention plan based on real data and field measurements. - **Food:** assessment of energy efficiency in production, processing, and storage, identifying solutions to reduce consumption and improve control. - **Agricultural:** analysis of energy utilities for greenhouses, milking plants, and ventilation systems, with proposed efficiency and sustainability actions. - **Health:** energy diagnosis for hospitals and healthcare facilities, focusing on HVAC systems, lighting, and domestic hot water production to reduce costs and consumption. - **ICT and digital technologies:** support for data centers and digital infrastructure in obtaining certified energy diagnosis. ## Case study: Alkeemia SpA Alkeemia SpA is described as a chemical plant specializing in hydrofluoric acid production in Porto Marghera, Venice. Before the intervention, the plant had annual consumption of about 13,000 toe of electricity and 4,400 toe of natural gas, with high cooling requirements and thermal loads. The Orange Start diagnosis identified targeted interventions and a concrete action plan. The page lists: - EGE-certified Orange Start energy diagnosis; - cogeneration upgrading with refrigeration production; - compressed-air efficiency measures with savings of 50 toe/year; - a new high-efficiency chiller with savings of 500 toe/year; - total savings of 1,150 toe/year, approximately €150,000 per year. ## Case study: Heineken Spa The page describes a Heineken Spa beer-production plant in Comun Nuovo, Bergamo. Before the intervention, annual electricity consumption was about 2,500 toe. The production process involved large machinery and substantial tower-water circulation for cooling. The Orange Start diagnosis identified targeted actions, including: - EGE-certified Orange Start energy diagnosis; - process optimization at the must evaporation stage, with savings of about 160 toe/year; - total economic savings of approximately €76,500 per year. ## Frequently asked questions ### Who is required to perform an energy diagnosis?
