What do I need to report for the information obligation on energy saving (Informatieplicht energiebesparing)?
Direct answer
For the information obligation on energy saving, you typically report company and site data, energy use, relevant measures and their status. Energy monitoring helps to keep the data current, verifiable and better substantiated.
- Consumption data
- Measure status
- Substantiation
- Repeatable reporting

Manual reporting versus structured preparation
Reporting for the information obligation is easier when the energy foundation is in order. Those who manage data, measures and sites in a scattered way have to search again every time. A central platform makes the preparation clearer.
- Ensure correct site, meter and consumption data.
- Record for each measure whether it is implemented, planned or not applicable.
- Retain substantiation and measurement results so that follow-up becomes easier.
Data
Traditional approach
Consumption and measures are scattered.
Modern approach
Sites, meters and measure status are centrally available.
Substantiation
Traditional approach
Evidence is collected each round.
Modern approach
Measurement data and notes stay linked to the site.
Repetition
Traditional approach
Each report takes a lot of work again.
Modern approach
The foundation stays current for subsequent reports.
Which information do you collect?
Think of site data, energy use, meters, measures, status, planning and any substantiation of why a measure was or was not implemented.
- Sites and connections.
- Electricity, gas and other energy carriers.
- Measures and status.
- Documentation and measurement results.
How does monitoring help with this?
Monitoring makes visible where energy goes and whether measures have an effect. This makes reporting less administrative and more steering information.
- Keep data current.
- Track the effect of measures.
- Explain deviations.
- Produce management reports.
