There are natural synergies between Environmental Social Governance (ESG) and the use of Energy Management (EM) software. The common route is (obviously) energy and or utility waste data which is used to feed the energy management software and the ESG reports. The use of software and its algorithms will ease the burden of ESG reporting
Introduction In today’s fast-paced and data-driven business landscape, decisions can make or break a company’s success. Gone are the days when gut instincts and educated guesses are sufficient to steer a business in the right direction. Enter data analytics, a powerful tool that has revolutionised the way businesses make decisions. In one of our latest
Decarbonisation is a recurring topic on the agenda of large organisations. The 28th Conference of Parties (COP28) has recently concluded in Dubai and one of the key issues on the table was how do World Governments try to find an agreement to reduce carbon emissions? Clearly Governments across the World are challenged with the task

As we saw in the previous article, collecting and analysing consumption data for a site can lead to identifying reasons for waste and by optimising resources it can have a big impact and reduce costs. It is also possible to connect to a Building Management System (BMS) to obtain consumption data in real time and
As reported on some of our previous blog posts, quantifying and measuring the impact of energy efficiency projects is one of the main barriers in investing into energy efficiency. It is extremely complex to quantify with accuracy the impact of an energy efficiency ‘opportunity’. This is because new technology or changes to how existing systems
Metering Monitoring and Targeting is an important step and a crucial aspect of energy management for any organisation looking to drive efficiencies and ultimately reduce costs. What gets ‘measured’ gets ‘managed’ and thanks to the process of Metering, Monitoring and Targeting, consumption data is collected and analysed to evaluate consumption over a medium to long
The transition toward a decarbonised economy requires the electrification of the existing gas load. In other words, we need to deliver space heating through electricity. The application of H2 to replace natural gas in its entirety comes with its own economic and engineering challenges, which we will cover in one of our upcoming posts. The
A quality energy audit matters because it is the foundation of any efficiency improvement plan. It is also the step with the highest error factor and the minimum added value. Stripping away the jargon, you could translate it into something like this: “You could pay a consultant to tell you what time it is using
