UVA Reduces Energy Use and Finds Hidden HVAC System Errors with Infometrics

How is the University of Virginia reducing energy use and finding hidden system inefficiencies?

How does UVA plan to reduce their energy consumption without upgrading their building systems?

UVA plans to use the same approach that MIT, Babson, the University of Michigan, Yale, and American University (among others) are using. Cimetrics Inc. announced today that the University of Virginia in Charlottesville, VA has chosen to implement the Infometrics continuous commissioning service to reduce campus energy consumption, streamline maintenance, detect faults and reduce CO2 emissions. The continuous remote
monitoring offered by Infometrics will detect hidden inefficiencies in the university's existing building systems, enabling them to optimize efficiency without a major capital investment.

Cutting-Edge Technology For Remote Ongoing Commissioning

Infometrics is the leading service for remote monitoring and ongoing commissioning of building systems. An Infometrics program provides powerful algorithm-based analysis of continuously collected building automation data. Valuable unbiased periodic reports enable clients to optimize efficiency and comfort, lower maintenance costs, and effectively manage facility staff and contractors while reducing energy consumption.

Infometrics Reduces Energy Use, Maintenance Costs and CO2 Emissions

Infometrics recommendations optimize mechanical and operational efficiency, catching potential problems before they become noticeable and keeping systems running smoothly and efficiently. The information provided enables proactive rather than reactive system maintenance, minimizing costly downtime and extending equipment life. Using secure Internet transmission, Infometrics can upload and analyze the performance of multiple vendors' equipment, anywhere in the world. And Infometrics reports quantify CO2 emissions reductions and calculate the annual energy cost of each problem.
