Verdant Energy Management Systems

Savings Methodology

Verdant continuously measures savings in every networked customer building worldwide.

Savings Measured by Actual HVAC Runtime Reduction

The most reliable way to measure savings from a Verdant energy management system is the actual reduction in HVAC runtime. Verdant compares the actual average daily HVAC runtime at a property to the simulated runtime if setback had been disabled.

In-Room Comparison

How the Comparison Works

In-room graphs in the Verdant Remote Management Web Portal show actual room conditions next to the simulated runtime without setback.

  • Occupied
  • Unoccupied (setback)
  • Cooling setpoint
  • Heating setpoint
  • Room temperature
  • Simulated without setback

HVAC units go into setback when rooms are unoccupied.
