Smart building owners are installing subcircuit monitoring infrastructure today that will satisfy not only current codes, but the 2024 IECC, Inflation Reduction Act compliance requirements, and the growing wave of Building Performance Standards.
C405.12 and C405.13, details the specific metering equipment needed for each nonelectrical energy type, walks through how subcircuit electrical monitoring and nonelectrical metering work together
ASHRAE 90.1 2019 to the 2022 edition dramatically expanded what must be monitored, how granularly, and in which buildings. PowerRadar front end deliver compliance.
The 2021 IECC introduced the most significant energy monitoring requirements in the code’s history. If your state has adopted it, your next commercial project over 25,000 square feet must include end-use submetering with granular, subcircuit-level data—and the clock is ticking.
This comprehensive guide covers everything you need to know: what steam is, how steam quality affects your operations, the common pitfalls of steam flow measurement, and a detailed comparison of the top flowmeter technologies used in industry today.
The adoption of IECC 2021 and ASHRAE 90.1-2019 and 2021 represents a meaningful evolution in this approach. These codes expand beyond design-stage requirements and embed energy metering, monitoring, and data accessibility into core compliance obligations.
Compressed air metering provides crucial operational data for manufacturers looking to identify opportunities to improve their operational efficiency.
General metering and submetering options for the primary utilities such as electric, gas and water. We discuss the differences and the value that can come from submetering the various utilities.
NYC's Local Law 88 (LL88) mandates commercial and industrial buildings over 25,000 SQFT and certain combined buildings exceeding 100,000 SQFT to upgrade lighting systems to energy-efficient standards and install electrical sub-meters.
HVAC Systems play a crucial role in providing building comfort. The reliability and consistent operation of these systems help to ensure we can all be productive. Learn more about how HVAC System Phase monitoring can be used to track system performance.
Irieveda Spice Blends of West Chester, invested in led lighting, hvac and occupancy based thermostatic controls at their production facility. This project reduced their energy usage and expenses by over 50% while delivering a 1 year payback.
Discover the top energy efficiency trends for 2025, including AI, IoT, smart monitoring, and sustainable waste management strategies tailored for multisite commercial and industrial facilities.
Local Law 97 in NYC mandates large buildings reduce carbon emissions, starting 2024. Energy metering is crucial for compliance, tracking utility use, and reporting. Fines apply for non-compliance. Future changes will tighten limits by 2030. Smart metering aids efficiency and ensures legal adherence.
Tenant metering and billing in commercial buildings ensure fair cost allocation and compliance with city benchmarking regulations. Automated systems enhance accuracy, while integrating smart meters helps track utility usage. Compliance with local laws promotes energy efficiency.
Smart buildings use IoT and automation to enhance efficiency. Monitoring electricity, gas, and water is vital to validate smart tech performance, track usage, and spot inefficiencies. Key practices: submetering, AI analytics, continuous monitoring, and engaging stakeholders.
Gas-to-steam conversion efficiency (averaging 30% of losses) and transport efficiency (10-25% of energy loss) represent some of the biggest yet most overlooked opportunities for manufacturers to cut Scope 1 emissions.
