Utility Database – EnergyCAP

At Facilities Management, we know the first step towards energy efficiency is maintaining a utility database. EnergyCAP is a software program designed for many things, such as energy information tracking, assessing the impacts of weather and rate changes, and calculating the cost avoidance attributable to energy management projects.
