4 Introduction The Trane eview energy management solution provides automated monitoring, analysis, alerts, reporting, data visualization, and facilitates the sharing of results through the use of dashboards, reports, and other tools. As energy costs continue to rise and the impact that over-consumption has on the environment, the need to operate and maintain buildings as efficiently as possible has never been so important. eview can help by raising awareness of how much energy your building consumes and then developing strategies to control energy costs. eview energy management software tracks energy use, costs, and CO2 emissions and processes the information for review, analysis, and compliance reporting. It provides the information you need to identify and assess opportunities. eview makes it easy to showcase the results of your energy conservation programs to internal and public audiences. eview highlights Assess data from various sites or meters. Review energy data in a wide range of graphs, tables, reports and exports. Compare energy use and costs on a day-to-day, month-to-month, year-to-year basis and normalize for weather and critical business metrics. Schedule monthly reports to be sent to your account. Set up alarms to proactively notify and attach meaningful reports to each alarm. Use custom dashboards to track and communicate your critical energy use and cost information. See how energy use translates into greenhouse gas emissions. 4 BAS-PRC054-EN 18 Nov 2010

5 Features and Benefits Dashboards eview is a web-based software-as-a-service solution, available as a periodic subscription. You simply log on with a secure ID and password, and have access to all of your organization's energy information in the form of dashboards, alarms and reports. eview uses data from your organization that can be automatically or manually collected. Automated data collection enables eview to track and analyze vast amounts of data in real-time.

7 Features and Benefits Figure 2. Example of a Generated Consumption vs. Budget Report Financial and Forecasting Tools eview provides the ability to analyze and manage not only your energy consumption, but your energy costs as well. Enter and store multiple ultility rates to improve the accuracy of cost forecasting and tenant invoicing. Benchmarking How does today s energy use compare to last months or last year? eview normalizes energy data for building size, weather (degree days), and business metrics (units or widgets produced, sales dollars, occupants). You can rank buildings against others in the portfolio to enable prioritization of energy conservation efforts. Standard invoicing and Tenant Billing Standard invoicing converts meter readings into invoices for building tenants or internal departments. This provides the benefit of eliminating the need for multiple meters. Provides the functionality and the ability to auto-generate invoices that can be distributed to multiple tenants or occupants for cost allocation or revenue-generating purposes. BAS-PRC054-EN 18 Nov

8 Features and Benefits Proactive Alarms and Exception Reporting Alarms in eview are managed by exception, allowing you to be more proactive in the alarm management process. eview employs an alarm management system that allows for ranges to be set against energy use and cost targets. If conditions exceed target ranges, alarms will alert users and even provide reports addressing the alarm condition. eview allows you to: Set up different types of alarms (profile, range, average, missing data, deviation, budget deviation). Set up alarms according to severity critical, non-critical, advisory. Set up alarms simultaneously for multiple meters. Determine which users will receive alarm notifications; this can also be based on the criteria set up for the alarm. Determine which reports can be sent with an alarm. Prevent nuisance alarms. 8 BAS-PRC054-EN 18 Nov 2010
