How PhoenixET Improves Energy Usage and Saves Facilities Money

There are a lot of factors that influence the energy a building consumes. There are also many priorities facility managers have to weigh in managing that energy. PhoenixET offers tools to maximize energy usage and help facility and energy managers meet their priorities.

The types of priorities building managers contend with are:

• How to reduce energy waste and increase profit  
• How to reduce carbon footprints (CO2)  
• How to maintain or improve customer comfort
• How to avoid kW peak demand charges 

The optimization of the BAS (for maximum efficiency) through EDX analytics and machine learning, is the chief mechanism that drives the above priorities. 

Analyzing such objectives and executing energy management systems by driving out inefficiencies is how we save customers energy and money. And this is obtainable for our customers without upfront capital costs.  

There are some common misconceptions about energy conservation that are rampant in the building management sector. We dissect these misconceptions in our post 4 Common Myths of Energy Conservation in Building Management. One big misconception is that customer comfort must be sacrificed to meet energy reduction goals. 

Customer comfort should be paramount. Customers should be encouraged to stay in your stores and buildings. And there are ways to achieve energy savings without going near this or other sacrifices. 

The chart below outlines the variety of ways in which a building consumes energy. We provide an energy management system that helps managers monitor and control these various factors.   

Through our Enterprise Energy Management (EEM) software and services, we measure building energy use and combine this with contextual data on weather, occupancy, and schedules to give real-time measurements managers can use to make better-informed decisions. 

Our software gives managers the flexibility to manage temperature in buildings based on current weather conditions. Our tools allow managers to consistently update building control systems that monitor and alert you to required maintenance, which maximizes the lifespan of building systems. Our systems enable managers to look at pre-cooling, adjusting set points, and other data points to prepare for peak demand times and limit usage.  

Energy Managers are under many pressures to meet budgets, reduce energy costs and carbon footprints, and manage customer comfort, all with a lack of visibility, messy controls systems, and local users complaining or manually changing the controls. 

PhoenixET brings building control systems into a single, normalized view, so that you can compare, and action your locations around your network. Do more with less by streamlining diagnosis, decision making, and action on diverse control systems so you can reduce service call times and meet your energy budget goals.
