BuildingIQ Validates Savings with Automated Measurement & Verification Service
5i platform for intelligent energy management powers the new service
SAN FRANCISCO — BuildingIQ has announced the general availability of a measurement and verification (M&V) service that allows building owner/operators to automatically measure and verify the effectiveness and impact of energy savings measures in order to qualify for utility or organizational savings incentives and mandates. Called Automated Measurement & Verification (AM&V), the new service is compliant with International Performance Measurement and Verification Protocol (IPMVP) practices and is designed to make M&V fast, reliable, and cost effective. AM&V works on top of BuildingIQ’s recently released 5i energy intelligence platform. With AM&V, organizations save time and money, and reduce complexity.
“Automating data gathering and making M&V calculations transparent can reduce project costs and improve confidence in the energy savings,” said Teddy Kisch, senior project manager at Energy Solutions. “Incorporating automated M&V protocols into a platform solution like BuildingIQ offers is a critical component of next-generation building technologies and will someday be ubiquitous for many energy consuming devices.”
