Why Weather Adjustment?
Building energy consumption is strongly influenced by external weather conditions – especially temperature, solar radiation, and humidity. To assess a building's actual energy efficiency progress, it's not enough to simply compare consumption from month to month or year to year. A mild winter or a hot summer can significantly distort the figures.
The solution: Weather Adjustment.
With this new feature in our Smart Buildings Platform, we enable a fair, comparable, and transparent analysis of energy consumption – regardless of the weather.
🔍 What exactly does weather adjustment mean?
Weather adjustment is a statistical procedure that normalizes a building's energy consumption to a standardized weather profile. This takes outside temperature (e.g., heating and cooling degree days) into account.
The result: An adjusted energy consumption value that shows how efficiently a building is truly operated – regardless of climatic fluctuations.
🧠 How does this work in our platform?
Our platform uses historical weather data, real-time sensors, and machine learning to model the influence of weather on energy consumption. The most important features at a glance:
- Automatic weather analysis: Linking energy consumption data with local weather data.
- Adjusted consumption values: Display of actual and adjusted consumption in the dashboard.
- Comparability over time: Fair annual comparisons and measurement of the success of efficiency measures.
- Export & Reporting: Integration into ESG reports and energy audits.
🏢 Who is this relevant for?
- Facility managers: Determine whether efficiency measures are truly effective.
- Energy consultants: Better decision-making basis for optimization suggestions.
- Sustainability managers: Reliable data for ESG reporting.
- Building owners: Transparency about portfolio performance.
🚀 Conclusion
With weather adjustment, we're taking energy analysis to a new level. It creates clarity where uncertainty previously existed – and makes energy efficiency measurable, understandable, and comparable.
