Not all energy dashboards are created equally. This seminar reviews the established classification of energy dashboards. Energy dashboards are a graphical user interface that resembles an automobile dashboard. A web-based energy dashboard allows for display of real-time building performance and external information. This workshop discusses the latest technology in energy dashboards and DDC monitoring. Learn about smart metering and how its integration into energy dashboards can become an invaluable tool for today's high performance green buildings.

1  Criteria for Building Automation Dashboards

All dashboards are not created equal. The term “dashboard” today continues to be flaunted when marketing any screen-based display with flashy graphics and energy related charts. But what do you get when you decide to purchase a dashboard?  This workshop presents a rational method for categorizing building automation dashboards to indicate required features at each level so that owners, operators, designers, and contractors can discuss their needs in the same terms.

2  Smart Metering through Controls
