Important Reports to Manage Utilities Consumption in Buildings

This article discusses the importance of accurate energy usage reports and access to data in managing utility consumption in buildings. It highlights the various essential reports needed to manage utility consumption, such as daily utility use over a month, daily electricity load in high-resolution, overall utilities building breakdown, buildings portfolio comparison, targeted systems (high resolution), system vs. outdoor temperature, and weather-normalized energy use. Submetering technology provides real-time and granular visibility of utility consumption, which is valuable in tracking the energy consumption behavior of individual tenants, individual pieces of equipment in industrial buildings, and overall building consumption on a daily, monthly, and yearly basis. The article emphasizes that submetering your building is crucial for managing utility consumption and improving its energy efficiency.
