Drawn from the Energy Management Association’s new O&M personnel training seminar created for utility incentive programs, this course demonstrates how to develop a plan to defeat drift and ensure continuous savings in energy projects. Topics covered include producing an M&V plan, training O&M staff, ongoing Cx, implementing CMMS/FDD programs, and developing serviceable documentation. This session will show energy managers how to create existing and ongoing value for building owners.

Learning objectives:

1. Recognize the industry accepted standards and guidelines for M&V, including the International Performance Measurements and Verification Protocol (IPMVP) and ASHRAE Guideline 14-2014.
2. Understand the multi-step process for M&V, including the various approaches (options) establishing implemented measures’ baseline performance and activities to verify projected improvement(s).
3. See how advancement and expansion in power monitoring, sub-metering, and data analytics has advanced the availability and accuracy of M&V procedures
4. Understand the enduring value created by training O&M staff, ongoing Cx, implementing CMMS/FDD programs, and developing serviceable documentation.
