Energy Spend = Supply Price x Usage (Demand)


Key Energy Challenges• Lack of visibility into device performance • Energy waste including

• Off hour energy consumption• BMS settings drift

• Maintenance: more reactive than proactive

• Data challenges:

• Inconsistent & Unusable Energy Data (Big Data)

• Lack of benchmarking data across many sites• No Quantifiable ROI (Return on Investment) on

Energy Initiatives• Limited Internal Expertise to Interpret & Apply

Energy Insights• Compliance with LEED and Energy Star certification

Energy Intelligence At Your Fingertips


Measuring The Invisible

HVAC Assets Up to 20% of all RTUs, AHUs, MAUs, VAVs, Exhaust Fans have unidentified or

emerging issues. Short Cycling, Excess Runtime, Over/Under Capacity, Control/Configuration

Errors, Partial Component Failure & Human Errors. An average size RTU with unidentified issues can cost you up several hundred

dollars in annual waste.


Preventative Maintenance: Detection

ISSUES DETECTION:

RTUs Running 24/7 With Excessive System Cycling

KPIs 3 Times Above Average No Correlation With Outside

Temperature BMS Settings Incorrect 5 Economizers Broken


System Correction & Savings

SYSTEM CORRECTION:

RTUs Running Efficiently Correlation With Outside

Temperature BMS Settings Recalibrated Economizers Fixed

BOTTOM LINE:$48,230 SAVINGS (30%)

Simple ROI 5 Months Increased Site Profitability Quantifiable Results


Savings: $10,502• Off hours HVAC system operations • BMS scheduling issue• Overworked systems and additional maintenance

BEFOREAC running during night hours

AFTER Normal operation

Operational Efficiencies: BMS Settings + Correction


Lighting – Parking Lot Lights8 Parking Lot Light Circuits On = $1.26 / Hour

Off Hours / Weekend Waste = (14 hours * 5 Days * $1.26) + (24 Hours * 2 Days * $1.26) = $148.20 Week

Daily = $21.17Weekly = $148.20Monthly = $592.80Annual = $7,113.60

EE Lighting Upgrade

Observations:Customer invested ~$200k in lighting project

Wanted to M&V the investment of project

Action: Panoramic Installed sensors on lighting

Results: Investment confirmedDrop from 30 kw peak to 12.50 kw peak


Demand Response Compliance

Findings• Customer met curtailment requires for

the Demand Response program.• Majority of the load was shed through

shutting down machinery and some lighting.

• Customer dropped roughly ~700kw during the Demand Response test.


PLC ManagementASO Email Notifications for Peak Demand Days

Upon receiving the email notification, the customer curtailed their usage and had clear visibility into exactly how much they reduced.

Potential peak hour dropped from ~1000kw to ~600kw (see graphic)

Result: 40% reduction in PLC value ~$17,000 a year
