FAQ | Learn How Energy Management Software will enable you to reduce energy consumption
Monitoring, Targeting & Reporting
Energy Management is the process of minimizing utility consumption while maintaining optimal occupant comfort in buildings, and production rates in industry. You can’t manage what you don’t measure, and therefore the monitoring and analysis of utility consumption and GHG emissions data is critical to any effective energy management program.
Utility accounting, also known as Energy Accounting or MT&R (Monitoring, Targeting and Reporting), is a method of actively measuring and analyzing energy and utility consumption data on a regular basis, and using that information to inform and direct energy management efforts. Energy and utilities costs are not fixed costs. Instead organizations that are able to measure energy consumption and take action on energy saving opportunities can gain a significant degree of control over their utility bills. Utility Accounting is a key tool in gaining that control.
