Energy Analysis Reports Module design

The Energy Analysis Reports Module includes reports that help you understand energy usage patterns to find energy waste, analyze transformer and circuit capacity and assess energy usage by process area or by product output. Use the energy modeling capabilities in this module, to forecast consumption, identify unexpected changes in your consumption, or identify actual savings as a result of energy management measures.

Components

The following reports are part of this module:

  • Create Model Report
  • Duration Curve Report
  • Energy Modeling Reports
  • Energy Regression Analysis Report
  • Energy Usage Per State Report
  • KPI Gadget
  • KPI Report
  • KPI by TOU Report
  • Multi Equipment Operation Report
  • Power Usage Per State Report
  • PUE Summary Report
  • Single Equipment Operation Report
  • Use Model Report

Prerequisites

  • The different reports have different input requirements. See Supported measurements and devices for more information.
  • The measurement data for the reports must be available as historical data logs in the database.
  • Before you can use the energy modeling report you must create a model.
  • This module requires a separate license. See Licensing for more information.

Design Considerations

  • Consider how to measure and log the different states for the Per State reports.
  • You might have to import state measurements into PME (I/O, Modbus, OPC, ETL) if they are captured in a different system.
  • The Energy Regression Analysis Report is a complex report which requires some expertise to create and to interpret the results correctly.
  • The KPI Report requires some upfront planning to define the KPI calculations and ensure that the required input parameters are available in the system.
  • PUE Category 1 and 2 (based on the Uptime Institute recommendations) are supported.
  • The energy modeling report is complex. Configuring this report takes time and expertise.
