UtilityModule (UM) is an energy management application that is part of Albireo’s energy management platform.
UtilityModule is a turnkey, all-in-one energy, intelligence software that helps businesses owners track their energy usage and cost, and budget for the next annual year. In our previous article, we discussed the core features of tracking usage and cost data, as well as energy budgeting. In the following article we will review those features and discuss additional features that UtilityModule provides.
Energy Saving Solutions
UtilityModule imports all utility and supplier invoice data into an easy-to-use energy management dashboard to provide business owners with a robust energy analysis of their properties. UtilityModule allows business owners to view deregulated energy contracts and download them as a PDF. Business owners can also view or download energy invoices as PDFs to provide to financial and risk management staff.
Equipped with invoice and contract data, our energy software assists customers in setting their energy budgets online. With advanced energy analytics, our customers can assess their energy risk management and make more informed purchasing decisions.
Energy Reporting and Accounting
Considering how volatile the energy market remains, it’s incredibly difficult for small business owners to properly budget for annual energy needs. Furthermore, it’s hard for enterprises to manage utility and supplier invoice data from multiple sites and discover solutions for each individual property.
With energy reports readily available, UtilityModule can help customers manage their accounting in their own energy software. Albireo can supply our customers with a file which can be directly imported into most major accounting systems, saving countless hours over manually inputting data. This is especially valuable for businesses with multiple site locations.
Energy Compliance
UtilityModule can also help customers stay compliant in cities where EPA Energy Star benchmarking is required. This includes business owners operating out of cities like Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Washington, D.C., and others. EPA benchmarking laws require business owners who operate commercial buildings of a certain criteria, including age, square footage, and stories, to submit energy usage and cost data into the EPA Portfolio Manager. Since UtilityModule has already collected this data, it can seamlessly submit the data on your behalf.
Closing
Be it energy analysis or energy budgeting, UtilityModule offers advanced features that help business owners improve their operational efficiency in managing their energy needs. Our energy management dashboard is intuitive and easy-to-use, providing valuable insights into energy consumption, contract management, and energy budgeting. Whether it’s understanding your energy costs or meeting EPA compliance, UtilityModule is the all-in-one solution for your energy management needs. Contact Albireo for a demo today!
