Energy Intensity Coefficient
[obsolete term] Form of energy performance indicator which adjusts for variation in external variables such as weather, product mix, etc. and therefore only varies if true energy performance has changed. Calculated by dividing actual consumption by expected consumption. Now called Energy Performance Coefficient

Energy Performance Certificate
EPCs are required for UK buildings on construction sale or letting, and are intended to represent their theoretical energy demand. There is considerable doubt about their accuracy: see for example page 5 of this report from Jones Lang Lasalle and the Better Buildings Partnership (link posted Jan 2013)

Energy Performance Coefficient
Form of energy performance indicator which adjusts for variation in external variables such as weather, product mix, etc. and therefore only varies if true energy performance has changed. Calculated by dividing actual consumption by expected consumption (formerly known as Energy Intensity Coefficient: download detailed article)

Energy performance indicator (EnPI)
Usually a single numerical value intended to convey how energy-efficient a process or building is in operation. The attributes of a well-chosen EnPI are that (a) it only changes when something is done which alters energy performance; (b) it changes by an amount consistent with the change in energy performance and in a consistent direction; and (c) it is immune to changes in factors (weather, production, etc) which are known to cause changes in consumption. These requirements are met for example by the Energy performance coefficient (download detailed article).

Energy Savings Opportunity Scheme (ESOS)
UK government scheme for mandatory energy assessments which must be conducted by, or at least reviewed and signed off by, assessors who are on one of the approved registers.

Expected consumption
Usually, depending on the context: either the consumption that should have been achieved if the installation had been operated with the minimum feasible energy input for the prevailing conditions, that is, without accidental losses or inefficiencies: or the consumption that would have occurred if the installation had been operating at historical efficiencies, that is, in the absence of any intervening energy-conservation measures.
