As energy markets continue to prove volatile and unpredictable, MTI recognizes the critical role that Energy Governance plays in maintaining fiscally and environmentally responsible operations. The urgent need to identify the most optimum energy-saving systems and retrofits for facility assets is a critical issue facing companies, school districts, local, state, provincial, and federal governments across North America. Energy Governance assists organizations in addressing these significant challenges by simplifying and streamlining the energy investment decision-making process.
"With historically high energy prices and the need to address climate change through emissions reduction, we are truly at a point when we must make responsible energy-related investment decisions. These decisions have a dramatic impact on facilities‚ near-term performance, but also have long-term impacts on the sustainability of our world," according to J. Nick Bayne, CEO. "Our vision is to support sustainable decision-making through technically-oriented energy capital planning solutions responsive to all organizations desiring to improve the sustainable performance of their facility assets. Historically, these best energy-related practices were too often implemented outside of an organization's capital planning process, resulting in energy efficiency investment projects never being implemented."
MTI's Energy Governance solution fully supports facility asset performance assessments, analysis, planning, and monitoring of energy investments. From the initial screening of a building‚s energy performance according to key performance indicators, such as an Energy Utilization Index, to a full assessment and optimization analysis of energy retrofits, to measurement and verification of energy savings, our Energy Governance solution supports the entire evaluation process.
The software solution includes Gridlogix's EnNET®, providing device-to-enterprise integration through web services, and the Facility Energy Decision System (FEDS) developed by Battelle Memorial Institute. EnNET facilitates the capture of energy-metered data within iPlan Energy Governance to support reporting of key performance indicators and measurement, as well as verification of energy savings. FEDS determines optimal retrofit opportunities and associated savings in energy and emissions for buildings that are inefficient compared to relevant benchmarks.
Hal Gentry, CEO of Gridlogix, stated, "Gridlogix is excited to be part of a total solution pioneered by Maricor Technologies that enables customers to reap the benefits of integrating real-time energy data with enterprise business processes. This solution maximizes the value of time sensitive information throughout the organization all the way to the executive suite."
