High Level Design
Overview
Several factors make the reduction of energy consumption part of a property management company’s agenda and sometimes part of a that company's strategic KPIs.- Consumption of energy is constantly increasing and fossil resources (main source of energy) are becoming scarcer. Due to the the above, energy prices are rising.
- Environmental protection is an important aspect and could be a competitive differentiator as consumer awareness of environmental implications of energy consumption rises.
- Legislation regarding energy consumption transparency and public reporting is becoming prevalent across different countries (carbon reduction targets).
Goals
Monitor electricity, gas, and water usage for properties
Objectives
- Track electricity, gas, and water usage for individual properties
- Compare energy consumption of properties to the previous year
- Compare energy consumption to adjacent properties
