2.3 Scope
Energy monitoring and control systems are required to fulfill a wide range of re-
quirements, extending from the simple logging of consumption data to complex
analysis of a variety of consumption control features.
Energy management systems are required to satisfy widely varying requirements.
This is why EMC is modular in structure. This means that different functions and
reports can be made available, depending on the required area of emphasis.
The following functions are provided as a supplement to the basic package:
• Weather-adjustment
Balancing of consumption values based on meteorological data.
• Automated meter readings
Integration of various, automated meter value recording systems.
• Controlling
Comparison of current consumption to budget values.
• Costs
Display of costs based on price models.
• Environment
Evaluation of various emission values.
• Benchmarking
Display and comparison of consumption-based characteristic values.
• Load profiles
Evaluation of load profiles.
