"What to consider when integrating energy into Facilities Management" - Delivered by UK Sales Manager Dean Noden at the Facilities Management event, March 2015.

1. What to consider when integrating
energy into Facilities Management
Dean Noden, UK Sales Manager
eSight Energy Ltd

2. • Up to 50% of a Facilities Management budget is spent on energy
• Public awareness of energy management is at an all time high, and at the top of company
agendas
• New legislation such as ESOS, and standards including ISO 50001, are forcing the issue
• Pressure on FM professionals to improve building and asset performance
Why is energy important in Facilities Management?

3. • Open new investment opportunities within your organisation
• Increase in employment and/or consultancy with demand for energy services
• Achieve significant savings for clients, or for your organisation
Energy Opportunities

4. • Collection of data from
existing systems
• Introduce data
collection methods
where not in place
• Utility, production,
temperature, weather,
CO2 data etc.
How can energy be introduced into Facilities Management?
Collection of
energy related data
Visualisation of
data
Energy related
services
• Energy Management
Software
• Analytics, reports,
dashboards, bill
verification,
benchmarking
• Consulting
• Bureau service
• Compliance

5. What to consider when choosing an
Energy Management software?

6. Compatibility with existing systems
Cloud or on-site
hosting?
Data Security
Compatible with IT
infrastructure?Data collection
from existing
systems and
hardware?
SCADA
Utility/Suppliers
BMS Production
data
Metering/
Logging
Spreadsheets Sub Metering SQL Database

7. Futureproofing
Is it scalable &
modular?
Can you add users
and functionality?
Can it grow with
your business?

8. Accessibility
Access from
anywhere across
the world?
Access “on-the-go”?
Avoids local install
issues

9. Multi-site, Multi-national
Access from
anywhere across
the world.
Multi-lingual
Multi-currency
Able to handle
local energy data,
tariffs etc.
Global weather
data

10. User Access Levels
Do all users
need full
access?
Administrative &
Management Staff
Technical Energy
Managers &
Engineers
How many
people need
access at any
given time?
Training
Provide reports
to non-users?

11. Reporting, legislation
Monitor user-defined
consumption of any
sustainability factor
Produce reports,
budgets & targets
for annual CSR
policy review
Evidence for
standards &
legislation including
ESOS, ISO 50001

12. What functionality is needed?
Energy Analysis
Utility Contracts
Reporting
Benchmarking
Alarms
Bill Verification Tenant Billing
Calculated Meters
Data Exchange
Dashboards

13. Using Energy Management Software to
make savings

14. • Install meters to pinpoint
areas of energy consumption
and identify high areas of
usage utilising aM&T
software.
• Use this information to target
areas to undertake efficiency
programs, make investments
and accurately forecast ROI.
- Over 200 meters in the multi-unit
site
- Identified 73% of usage comes
from AC/Lighting
- Built an efficiency program
Resulting Savings
15% Electric
6% Gas
13% Water
Identify key consumption areas

15. • Look for savings by monitoring energy usage
during “out-of-office” periods or when the
building should be closed
• Identifying high readings or anomalies in this
usage allows you to easily and quickly spot
any energy waste
Client: Neath Port Talbot College
- Look at water consumption v. building
occupancy
- Through base load analysis, identified
water consumption was abnormally high
- Detected a water leak!
Resulting Savings
£27K per year
Use Baseload Analysis to detect underlying issues

16. • Use benchmarking to compare the
performance of a building against itself,
other buildings within the organisation
or external models and targets
• Use year on year comparisons to track
performance and monitor trends
Client: Metropolitan Hospital, Greece
- Benchmark building performance
- Alarms to identify peak demand
- Energy consumption v. external factors (i.e.
temperature)
Resulting Savings
30% In night-time
energy costs!
Benchmark Building Performance

17. • Generate alarms to automatically notify when
energy usage data is inaccurate, steps outside
of tolerance levels or deviates from a target
• React quickly to a problem to limit any
negative effects
- Analyse the amount of hot water
recovered per brew
- Hourly-updating dashboards to monitor
plant during operation, shutdown, and
maintenance
- Alarms to notify on anomalies before
causing a major impact on utility costs
Resulting Savings
10% Overall usage
10% Water
16% Effluent Cost
Set alarms against energy consumption limits

18. • Analyse the efficiency of your energy
consumption against performance indicators
such as production, temperature or degree
days
• Set targets for reduction, monitor on-going
deviation from targets and analyse total
savings to date since project inception
Client: The American Society of Haematology
- Installed a smart building infrastructure for real-
time data
- In-depth analysis; regression of building energy v.
temperature, daily comparison of electricity use,
etc.
Resulting Savings
9% Electric
13% Water
40% Carbon Footprint
Monitor the performance of your energy use

19. • Instant access to energy data
• Configure your display to include:
Graphs, gauges, alarms, data
imports, web links, analysis
templates and more!
Facilities Dashboards

20. When integrating energy into
Facilities Management, consider:
• Accessibility
• Global compatibility
• Scalability
• Flexibility
• The Future
Top tips to make energy savings:
• Identify key consumption
• Use baseload analysis to detect
issues
• Benchmark building performance
• Set alarms against consumption
limits
• Monitor the performance of your
energy use
Summary
eSight’s robustness and ease of deployment make it an essential tool for Facilities
Managers with an Energy Focus to manage their estates.”
