Cost and Usage Trends
Get the big picture on your business’s energy usage trends that enable you to compare how your energy costs and usage change over time. Look at the previous month, the same month last year, or anywhere in between to better understand your energy use over time. Reviewing these trends offers a broad overview of the way your energy use and costs change due to factors like your rate plan, daylight savings, temperature, energy demand, and more. This long-term view can help you identify energy trends, prepare for changes and plan your budget.

Weather Impact
Just as in your daily life, weather affects the amount of energy it takes to run your business. The Weather Impact tool gives you a precise look at how your usage changes based on the temperature outside, so you can see how weather affects your business operations and plan ahead for hot summer months and cooler winter periods. So, whether you find yourself putting on a jacket or wishing you were wearing shorts on your way to work, you can adapt your business’ energy usage to match.

Now you can see exactly how much unnecessary energy you’re expending, and then start making the changes to help your business save without impacting your normal operations.
