Submetering for Intelligent Building and Sustainability: Measurement & Verification

Metering platforms are essential to understanding the use of energy within a building. Submetering is an essential part of sustainability programs and Intelligent Building design. This course discusses submetering and measurement & verification (M&V) technologies and products, and illustrates how they can be integrated into building management systems (BMS) to reduce energy consumption and overall operating costs.

Upon completion of this course, the Learner should be able to:

• Describe how measuring and monitoring electricity use provides environmental benefits and reduces the greenhouse gas (GHG) footprint of a building.
• Recognize five areas of undetected energy waste that could be identified with an M&V system.
• Discuss why resource consumption information should be made visible to a broad audience and relay why this visibility cultivates ownership among all the stakeholders and promotes energy conservation.
• List and explain electricity consumption reduction strategies that can be undertaken with electrical M&V system.
• Describe the characteristics and performance functions of a multi-circuit meter and detail how it integrates into the operations of an Intelligent Building by complementing the building automation system (BAS).
