WHAT IS TOTAL ENERGY MANAGEMENT?

The Carrollton-Farmers Branch Independent School District in Texas approached Direct Energy Business with a desire to understand how their energy was being used and where they could save. We introduced them to Panoramic Power®, an energy monitoring solution that uses tiny wireless sensors to track electricity used by each device and upload the data real time to a user friendly dashboard.   In only two months the school district discovered improperly operating rooftop air conditioners, inappropriately scheduled lighting and overuse of other equipment. In total, they identified nearly $23,000 of potential annual energy savings across just three buildings.
