Users can track energy consumption and trends across different space types within properties and across portfolios. Space-based analytics support a deeper level of decarbonization planning that differentiates between landlord and tenant-based strategies and allows users to take more targeted action to reduce energy-use. ## Performance Metrics Users can track and report performance, data completeness and data coverage for each space type and energy type. | Space Type | Consumption, Completeness, Coverage | | :------------------------------------------------- | :---------------------------------- | | Base Building (All) | Total Energy | | Base Building (All) | Electricity | | Base Building (All) | Fuel | | Base Building (All) | District Heating & Cooling | | Base Building - Common Areas | Total Energy | | Base Building - Common Areas | Electricity | | Base Building - Common Areas | Fuel | | Base Building - Common Areas | District Heating & Cooling | | Base Building - Shared Services | Total Energy | | Base Building - Shared Services | Electricity | | Base Building - Shared Services | Fuel | | Base Building - Shared Services | District Heating & Cooling | | Tenant Spaces (All) | Total Energy | | Tenant Spaces (All) | Electricity | | Tenant Spaces (All) | Fuel | | Tenant Spaces (All) | District Heating & Cooling | | Tenant Spaces - Landlord Controlled | Total Energy | | Tenant Spaces - Landlord Controlled | Electricity | | Tenant Spaces - Landlord Controlled | Fuel | | Tenant Spaces - Landlord Controlled | District Heating & Cooling | | Tenant Spaces - Tenant Controlled | Total Energy | | Tenant Spaces - Tenant Controlled | Electricity | | Tenant Spaces - Tenant Controlled | Fuel | | Tenant Spaces - Tenant Controlled | District Heating & Cooling | | Outdoor / Exterior / Parking (All) | Total Energy | | Outdoor / Exterior / Parking - Landlord Controlled | Total Energy | | Outdoor / Exterior / Parking - Tenant Controlled | Total Energy | | EV Charging | Total Energy | ## Meter Assignments To enable [space-based performance](/spaces/performance) tracking and [Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions reporting](/performance/scope-emissions), energy meters must be assigned to their appropriate space types. All meters, regardless of whether they are in-metric or out-of-metric, can be assigned to space types. [Click here](/meters/meter-space-assignments) to learn how to assign meters to spaces. ## Methodology The diagram below shows how consumption data is rolled up from meters associated to a specific space type to calculate energy performance metrics. The process is similar to that used for calculating whole building performance, except that it includes all meters assigned to the space type regardless of in-metric status. Group 1000002828 (1) All meters assigned to a space type, including both **in-metric** and **out-of-metric** meters, are included when calculating performance metrics for that space type. For aggregations across space-types (e.g. **Base Building**), all meters assigned to each component space type (e.g. **Common Areas, Shared Services**) are included. Consumption entries between meter activation & deactivation dates and property buy and sell dates are broken down and reconstituted into monthly values for each meter. Data outside of these boundaries is ignored. Consumption is aggregated into three main energy types: Electricity, Fuel and DH\&C to maintain consistency with data coverage tracking and reporting requirements. | Meter Subtype | Energy Type | | ---------------------- | ----------- | | Electric | Electric | | Electric on Site Solar | Electric | | Electric on Site Wind | Electric | | Natural Gas | Fuel | | Diesel | Fuel | | Fuel Oil No 1,2,4,5,6 | Fuel | | District Steam | DH\&C | | District Hot Water | DH\&C | | District Chilled Water | DH\&C | Monthly values are rolled up for each space and energy type to provide monthly & annual metrics for every possible 12-month reporting period. ## **Property Tracking** **Navigate to Property → Spaces → Energy** ### Configure Settings Using the bottoms located at the top-right, confirm all spaces and meter assignments. * **Assign Meters:** [Click here](/meters/meter-space-assignments) to learn more. * **Floor Areas:** [Click here](/spaces/data-coverage) to learn more. * **Data Coverage (Landlord / Tenant):** [Click here](/spaces/data-coverage) to learn more. * **Units** ### Annual Energy Use by Space Type Changes in energy use from the base period to the reporting period by space type, broken down by energy type.
