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.
