We monitor & analyze district utility data … - Through the use of an industry standard software program called EnergyCAP - Energy CAP meets a standard written by the U.S. Department of Energy called the International Performance Measurement & Verification Protocol (U.S. DOE Document #DOE/GO-102002-1554) In order to account for changes in energy usage from year-to-year, the standard prescribes certain adjustments should be made for …  Changes in weather  Changes in building sq. ft., inc’l the addition/removal of portable buildings  Adding/removing mechanical systems & other energy consuming technology  Differences in base year and current year monthly billing cycles Savings is the value of the energy we did not use. It is the difference between the expected energy use (at current rates) and the actual energy cost. Measurement & Verification 3
