REAL WORLD
A Day In Your Life
Resource
I don’t have time or resources
to review energy data
Expertise
I have data and software but
I don’t know how to act on the
information
Strategy
I don’t know where to start
or how to prioritize actions
Performance Assurance

3 V’s of Energy Data
Volume of Data ……a Data Tsunami
● 1000 X + increase in Volume of data from smart meters alone
● 27 Million smart meters in US since 2008 1
Velocity of Data
● Smart Meter reading frequency Increased from
● Monthly to every 15 minutes
● Enabling Smart Grid, DR, Microgrid efforts2
● Penetration of smart meters expected to be 100% by 2020
Veracity of Data3
● 75% of companies reported data quality issues
● 50% of Business intelligence (BI) projects will face limited
acceptance or failure
● It can cost you – inaccurate billing; missed real time DR
opportunities; opportunities to reschedule etc.

Energy Resource and Expertise
●Market will need 2X to 4 X energy engineers by 2020
● Add ~1m jobs depending on market growth
●Identifying and hiring qualified energy engineers is challenging
● >60% of firms experienced some to great difficulty hiring
●Aging workforce
● ~1/3 of energy engineers >50 years old
●Few engineers enter the field with energy experience
● Demand met by hiring electrical or mechanical engineers

Implications of Trends
●Capable software: Do you have Software…that can acquire and
process/analyze data and supports your Velocity, Volume and Veracity
needs?
● Unlock Hidden Value: Bring in new levels of automation and
optimization leveraging cloud based technology and lower storage
costs
●Resource and Expertise Dilemma : Do you have a strategic energy
plan in place? How do you leverage data to achieve your goals?

"The program has exceeded our expectations on performance...
we have reduced cost by 45%. Everyone is pleased with the
lighting and comfort in the work space.
- Jesse Dillard, Energy Manager, City of Dallas
2012 EBIE Award Winner
Award recognizes the building with the highest percentage of energy savings. It
is awarded on the basis of two years of energy data, one before and one after
improvements.

Dallas Art Museum
A typical day…..
Client Challenge:
Identify root cause of alarm and
recommend and implement corrective
action
• Ongoing monitoring and periodic review of building
performance of Museum allows identification of root cause
• EPC identified and isolated issue two exhaust fans
that were located in underground garage
• Apparently maintenance personal had recently
repaired fans and had left it in over ride position.
• Override button had cause fan to be showing it is
OFF even through feedback from BAS showed it is
being ON
Our Solution: Results:
• Reduced Opportunity cost of
$1512 by leaving fans in on
position 27/7 , 365 days a year.
