Web. Gen: Intelligent Use of Energy Web. Gen’s IUE is the first intelligent, predictive energy conservation system that remotely monitors, forecasts, continuously optimizes, and automatically controls energy use.
IUE: An Overview • Low-cost, low-risk, energy conservation service • Helps companies understand & reduce energy costs • Conserves scarce energy resources & creates new revenue streams • Accounts for savings & revenues
Representative Customers • • • Hobbs Brook Trizec Properties Bank of America NYSERDA, State of New York State of California, DGS University of Miami, Florida
Web. Gen Installations • Total Installed Space • 25 million square feet • 185 buildings • Locations • California, New York, Florida, New England
Our Value: 12% Savings Cut net aggregated energy spend by 12% with no impact on tenant comfort • Always-Active Permanent Load Reduction • Full-Time Peak Load Management • Virtual Meter Aggregation • Curtailment & Sale Back to ISO (Avoidance & Reduction)
IUE: Complete Enterprise Energy Management Energy Information Systems IUE Demand Response Systems Building Management Systems
IUE: What it Does • Monitors existing energy consuming devices and meters • Aggregates data in buildings, portfolios, power pools • Forecasts usage and executes smart conservation strategies with real-time analysis of space temperature, air quality, occupancy, weather, and energy price • Intelligently controls devices and lighting, learns consumption patterns and reactions to change • Optimizes and accounts for results
IUE: Enhances Building Management Systems IUE BMS Proactive Reactive Acts based on Forecasts Acts after Events Intelligent Learning Pre-Programmed Multiple-Goal-based One-dimensional Feedback Loop Portfolio-Focused Building-Focused Continually Optimizes Savings Follows Rules Until Changed Auto-Curtails Across Portfolio Each Building Follows Plan Creates New Earnings Stream No New Earnings Stream
Connecting to IUE • Web. Gen connects existing building management systems (BMS) to the Internet • If no BMS exists, equipment is connected directly via Web. Gen’s wireless connectivity solution • Building equipment & meters are mapped to Web. Gen’s IUE servers • Exchange begins, real-time monitoring & control signals are sent via secure Internet connection
IUE: Architecture Standard three-layered architecture: • Browser-based user interface layer • Intelligent business logic layer • Standard data collection layer Distinct communications layer accommodates new connection protocols.
IUE: Lighting Agent Electric Energy • IUE Lighting Agent controls the Flux Regulator • External factors (weather, grid load, energy price) drive agent decisions • Flux Regulator responds to agent commands • Regulated voltage saves money Flux Regulator Internet Connection IUE Office Lighting
IUE: Immediate Results • Provides detailed analysis of consumption • Shows and aggregates energy consumed at each device/meter • Shows actions taken & results in real-time • Depicts actual and forecasted consumption based on IUE usage • Translates actions taken into dollars saved • Complete comparison of baseline and actual energy data to bills • Accounts for capacity & energy revenues • Provides real time analysis of commitments, payments and fees
