For several years, the U.S. Federal Energy Management Program (FEMP) has issued energy savings guidelines that include the implementation of submetering, with energy tracking and reporting, and the formalization of energy goals and processes. Every building owner must be engaged to take advantage of energy management and energy efficiency initiatives. In addition, energy inefficiency is very costly; in fact, poor performing buildings can use up to seven times the energy of the highest energy efficient buildings, for the same exact use.

Installing EIG’s meters, submeters, and metering software is one of the most cost-effective ways to implement an energy management program. Armed with the knowledge you get from EIG’s meters and submeters, you can make decisions that will realize energy savings for everyone.

EIG’s EnergyReporterPQA™ software, coupled with EIG’s meters, lets you bill tenants for their actual energy usage, rather than relying on square footage billing. This gives your tenants ownership of their energy costs. Since tenants can see how their usage directly affects their bills, they have motivation to reduce their energy use. This results in both immediate and long-term savings. In addition, tenants can see that they are being billed fairly.
