Utility Bill Analytics
The Utility Bill Analytics module provides analysis of electricity, gas and water utility cost and consumption, helping you to identify anomalies that can lead to cost savings and lower consumption.
You can access Utility Bill Analytics dashboards from either the IBM® ESG Suite Verify menu, or the group level Cost and Consumption sub menus. Other analytical tools are available at a location or account level, for example, the performance dashboard.
You can configure your home page to display a Utility Performance gadget. The gadget displays an overview of cost and consumption for electricity, natural gas, and water for the recent period. You can also use the gadget to view total cost variance per utility compared with a previous period to see how the utility costs changes over time. To view the Utility Bill Analytics summary page, click View Details.
Utility Bill Analytics also includes a standard PowerReport that you can use for detailed utility cost and consumption analysis.
