Do you know how much energy your building used
yesterday? Don’t feel bad, most facility and building managers don’t… but, let’s say you did.
Would you know if it was the "right amount?" Or if it wasn’t, how much it cost you?
The average building owner spends approximately 1/3 of their operations budget on energy.
Yet, for most facility professionals, these extremely important questions are difficult,
if not impossible to answer.
How would you like to have your own "Energy Expert" on staff?
This expert is always working. It is constantly looking at the energy use of your facility and telling you when
you are saving money (or wasting it!). You can now have an effective way to keep tabs on this large operational
expense within your facility!
Interested? Keep reading to learn more…The Energy Expert tool was developed in
close cooperation with the U.S. Department of Energy’s Federal Energy Management Program with the goal of helping
save energy in commercial buildings. This sophisticated, yet easy-to-use software application creates a "smart model" of how
your building should consume energy and compares daily performance against it. The Energy Expert will tell you
whether your facility over-consumed, under-consumed, or used about the "right" amount of energy that day.
The application has an easy-to-understand interface based on a color grading scheme.
Yellow indicates low energy use. Green indicates that the energy usage was within the predicted range. Red
indicates that energy usage was higher than predicted. In the case of either a Yellow (Low) or Red (High)
indication, the Energy Expert will also give you an estimate of the money saved or the cost of the extra consumption.
Energy Expert also works together with your Notifications Tool.
You can receive email alerts if your facility has low or high energy consumption. Also, to ease installation,
we provide a wireless monitoring device which you can connect to your electric meter—to transmit your building's
energy use directly to our data servers. All the information is delivered to you over the Internet using your web
browser. It is simple, easy, and you can get started in a day.
