Fly over a year of energy

The same picture an analyst starts from, stood up: each day is a ridge, each hour a step along it, and the height is the power being drawn. This is the synthetic school behind the Pelorus home page, with the six faults an Energy Agent run found standing where they happened. Drag to look round; the flight resumes when you press play.

Found so far: $0 a year

January. The flight runs the year left to right; a pin rises where a finding was made.

Drag to look round, scroll to zoom. Taller is more power; brighter is more power too.

  1. MET-03 After-hours operation $12,900 a year Found by an engineering rule
  2. MET-11 Lighting on after hours $8,400 a year Found by an engineering rule
  3. MET-04 Weekend load shape looks like a weekday $13,600 a year Found by an engineering rule
  4. MET-05 Anomalous peak demand event $3,400 a year Found by a statistical model
  5. MET-02 Baseload creeping up over time $4,700 a year Found by a statistical model
  6. MET-08 Anomalous daily load shape $500 a year Found by machine learning

Navy is the night floor, teal the working day, cream the peak. January is on the left, midnight at the back.

The school is synthetic and the six faults were put in on purpose; the dollars are the same fixed rates the home page uses ($0.12 per kWh, $12 per kW for four months). Each pin links to the rule that found it.

Your year

Now fly over yours

Drop in a year of utility interval data (CSV or Green Button). It is read here, in your browser, and nothing is uploaded. The landscape above becomes your building: the water is your night floor, the gold pin your peak, the small pins each month’s peak, and the land is darker outside the hours you set.

Or drop the file on this box. A CSV or a Green Button XML file, hourly or 15-minute; a longer export keeps its latest three years. It is read here, in your browser. Nothing is uploaded. Not sure how to get one? How to ask your utility for interval data.

A first look, not an analysis: descriptive arithmetic you can check by hand. Which findings are real, what causes them and what they cost at your tariff is what Energy Agent and a Pelorus engineer work out.

Your first building is free.

Send twelve months of interval data, a BAS trend export, or just the bills. You get a screening-level report of what the building is wasting, what that is worth at your tariff, and what to do first. One building per organisation, no sensors, no installation, no commitment.
