Meter Selection
Custom Reporting, Tenant AMR & Billing
Tenant metering and billing services provide live and historical monitoring data for developing tenant bills. Submetering segregates tenant energy usage across all primary and secondary energy sources from centrally-metered plants.
Tenant metering and billing services provide live and historical monitoring data for developing tenant bills. Submetering segregates tenant energy usage across all primary and secondary energy sources from centrally-metered plants.
Why It Matters
At large campuses or multi-tenant facilities with centrally-metered plants, landlords cannot effectively assign a pro-rata energy cost per square foot due to high variability in tenant demand. Submetering of chilled water, heating water, steam, compressed air, electric, and gas enables accurate cost allocation and recovery from tenants. Without submetering, landlords absorb disproportionate energy costs and tenants have no incentive to conserve.
Key Selection Factors
- Energy sources to be submetered (electric, gas, water, steam, chilled/heating water, compressed air)
- Billing frequency and automated meter reading (AMR) requirements
- Revenue-grade accuracy requirements for tenant billing (ANSI C12.20 Class 0.2 or 0.5 for electric)
- Historical data retention and trend analysis needs
- Integration with property management or accounting systems
