The Job
Energy Monitoring by PEC revolutionizes how businesses optimize their electric, gas, and water usage. By installing wireless sensors through a building, we can map out when, where, and how energy is being consumed throughout a facility. With this data, building operators can identify waste, inefficient equipment, poorly configured operating schedules and much more. We can use the data to benchmark facilities, track historical data, and set alerts when usage or power increases outside existing trends. Many sensors are noninvasive, allowing facilities to continue to run during the installation process. This drastically reduces install costs and allows our team to gather data that might be otherwise inaccessible. Through this data, we provide businesses a pathway to reduce their energy use, improve their operations, and increase their bottom line.
