Manage meters
Move, delete, edit, and create meters with the All Meters option.
Meters are typically attached to buildings and NOT organizations
- Weather normalization calculations may not be performed properly when a meter is attached to an organization. (Buildings have weather stations, organizations do not.)
- Meters attached to an organization won't be included in budget worksheets.
- Square footage cannot be entered for an organization, this skews energy use intensity (EUI) calculations.
- Meters attached to an organization are not included in any benchmark calculations.
- The bills for any meter attached to an organization are not checked by the outlier audits.
- Only buildings can be submitted to ENERGY STAR. A meter attached to an organization cannot be submitted.
- Meters attached to an organization may be missed on reports. For example, a subtotal report of buildings would not include data for any meters assigned to an organization. Another example, meters assigned to organizations are excluded from use/area and cost/area reporting.
Move a meter
Moving a meter changes the weather station, cost avoidance data, group membership, and subtotaled data.
A meter failed to move
- If one meter fails to move, they all fail to move.
- Results of the move are displayed.
Delete meters
- When the delete process is complete, a banner appears with the number of meters deleted and not deleted.
- All bills associated with each meter are deleted.
