mass/energy balancing
Explanation:
"Anlagenbilanzierung" refers specifically to "Massen- und Energiebilanzen". This is a thermodynamic concept. By doing mass/energy calculations you can determine the thermodynamic efficiency of a plant -- which is what the "Anlagen" refers to in this case (not assets).

I forgot to mention -- the concept is NOT refered to as "plant balancing" or whatever a more literal translation would be, but strictly by the term I suggested.
