Evidence methodology

How Enlogy measures and communicates results

Learn how Enlogy defines baselines, validates data, measures energy and operational changes, documents assumptions, and approves customer results for publication.

Discuss Measurement and Verification
Measure, analyse, act and verify lifecycle for energy and operational results

Result types

  • Observed consumption
  • Baseline consumption
  • Adjusted baseline
  • Avoided consumption
  • Cost effect
  • Operational improvement
  • Modelled opportunity
  • Verified result

Measure – Analyse – Act – Verify

  • Draft metric
  • Check source and evidence level
  • Define boundary and baseline
  • Review method, uncertainty and exclusions
  • Approve safe public wording
  • Review before publication expiry

Data-quality checks

  • Completeness, continuity and timestamp checks
  • Unit, meter and data-lineage validation
  • Outlier, missing-data and change-point review
  • Source ownership and exclusion documentation

Baseline variables

  • Production, shift, batch or operating schedule
  • Weather and occupancy where relevant
  • Tariff, demand and calendar context
  • Equipment state and planned maintenance

Measurement boundaries

  • Site, facility, plant or portfolio boundary
  • Included meters, assets and data sources
  • Reporting period and comparison basis
  • Excluded loads, events and unverified assumptions

Method and governance

A result is more than a number.

Confidence and uncertainty, data completeness, baseline variables, boundary and exclusions are documented before a numerical result can be considered for publication.

Use observed consumption for what the data directly records.

Use adjusted baseline or avoided consumption only when assumptions and method are documented.

Describe modelled opportunity as an opportunity, never as achieved savings.

Use verified result only when approved data, method, review and publication status exist.

The baseline boundary and adjustment method are stated for each metric.

IPMVP relationship

Recognised measurement and verification concepts can inform baseline, reporting-period, boundary and uncertainty decisions. An external methodology does not make a customer result automatically certified.

ISO 50001 relationship

enCoreEnergy can support energy-management processes and records. Certification is performed by an accredited certification body and is not automatically provided by software.
