Introduction to supplement the target database for the study and to check for information consistency as a quality check. CRL Energy also tapped This report updates the “2008 Heat Plant in New Zealand Database” its numerous contacts to gather required information for the study. and was compiled by CRL Energy Ltd., on behalf of the Energy Efficiency and Conservation Authority (EECA). Aside from using mailed surveys, phone calls, and other data gathering tools, CRL Energy has utilised a web-based tool, EECA is seeking a robust update and expansion of the database of SurveyMonkey, for some of the surveying requirements of the study. heat plant in New Zealand. The updated information will provide This can make it more convenient for respondents to complete the accurate understanding of commercial and industrial process and surveys and was used wherever appropriate in this study. space heat potential, thereby assisting EECA in implementing a range of programmes to encourage businesses and individuals to use energy more efficiently and increase the use of renewable energy. 3.1 Key assumptions The survey is limited to sites equal to or greater than 100kW. However, where a respondent has replied and the site is less than 2.
