| Description | Advances in new equipment, new processes and new technology are often the driving forces in improvements in energy management, energy efficiency and energy measurement processes. Of all recent developments affecting energy management, the most powerful new technology to come into use in the last several years has been information technology—or IT. The combination of cheap, high-performance microcomputers together with the emergence of high-capacity communication lines, networks and the internet has produced explosive growth in IT and its application throughout our economy. Energy information systems have been no exception. IT and internet based systems are the wave of the future. Timely energy information is particularly critical to energy service companies (ESCOs) as this information can be invaluable in establishing baseline energy consumption, commissioning new installations and ongoing monitoring of savings. Web-based energy information systems provide the ability to view time-stamped data on a daily basis which provides both the contractor and the building owner the information to compare actual performance of the energy conservation measures (ECMs) to the projected performance and to make adjustments to correct problems quickly. All of this can be done with just a web browser from the contractor's office, eliminating the need for costly site visits. This chapter describes the fundamentals of an energy information system (EIS) and presents two case studies that showcase how energy data collection and analysis can be used to quantify energy project results.
