Energy review and coordination

From an energy anomaly to a contextual task

Bring metering definitions, operating states and handling records together so an anomaly has reviewable context and changes can be checked afterward.

Read the review points

Align metering definitions first

Check the metering object, period and units before comparing data. Record the time range and confirm that matching names or units refer to comparable objects and definitions.

Check
The meter, area, period, unit and aggregation method.

Connect schedules and operating states

Relate the anomalous period to operating schedules and equipment states. A change in total consumption is a clue; operating context helps identify what to check next.

Check
The equipment, planned hours, state source and record time.

Clarify responsibility and site permissions

Confirm alert conditions, the responsible person and site permissions. Define who assesses the issue, who may act and which operations need authorization.

Check
Assessment ownership, site participants, permitted actions and authorization requirements.

Record assessments and actions

Retain the basis for the assessment, actions taken and review time so another participant can understand the context and current progress.

Record
The assessment, action, operator, handling time and items awaiting review.

Review changes with subsequent records

Use later metering and operating records to review the effect of changes. Recheck the objects, periods and definitions before comparison, and note other factors still to verify.

Review
Comparable meter records, operating states, review time and findings.

Energy-event structure

Use a building, event, device and next review action to describe an energy record with equipment context.

Filled example: AHU-01 in Building A uses energy outside scheduled hours. The next task is a manual schedule review.

FieldMeaningComplete and check
datasetRecord collectionenergy-event-template identifies this energy-event template.
buildingBuilding objectBuilding A corresponds to the building containing the equipment.
eventEvent typeout_of_hours_energy means energy use outside scheduled hours, to be checked against actual periods and states.
deviceRelated equipmentAHU-01 identifies the associated HVAC equipment object.
next_actionNext review taskreview_schedule means a manual schedule review, not a device-control command.

This structure retains the relationship between an event and its objects. Project records also need the metering period, state source, responsibilities, permissions and review time.

Start with one anomalous period to define the review scope.

Bring metering definitions, schedules and equipment states. Describe the participants and handling records you need.
