Squeezing the energy data In this post we will make the most out of the energy data when this is scarce. For the example, let's focus only on electricity and…

Air compressors audit One of the areas with high energy consumption is the generation, distribution and use of compressed air. It is very important to design the system in an optimal way…

Virtual energy data system In this post I will explain an idea to convert a building management system (BMS) into a virtual energy data system that will guide us when…

Building commissioning In this article I am going to talk about building commissioning for fault detection. These kind of failures (elements, controls, etc.) represent a negative impact of energy. Though…

Fault detection (automatic). In this article, I am going to talk about fault detection (automatic) due to their impact on energy consumption. This is a previous step to fine-tuning or…

Data discrimination. In this article I will talk a little more about theoretical consumption, about normalization of energy values influenced by known variables. Specifically, how data should be discriminated when…

Energy dashboards In this post I am going to talk about energy dashboards. An energy manager has to produce tools for control and communication that help the energy team and…

Technical projects Today I will talk about the fifth and latest tool of the energy program which I proposed. Another source of energy projects are generic technical projects. I mean…

Short term metering This is the fourth tool of the energy program that I introduced in my post: an energy program. Short term metering aims to discover potentials that come from differences…

Energy workshops Earlier I talked a lot about energy efficiency, the majority focused on the production and distribution of energy in the company. Likewise, in the energy program, the three…
