Energy Use by Degree Day Total (kilowatt-hours / degree days) metric

Determines energy use efficiency based on comparing energy use by location, geography, calendar period, and other attributes. This metric also normalizes total energy consumption based on number of buildings, buildings size, and the climate at the various locations.

Details of the metric	Description
Name	Energy Use by Degree Day Total (kilowatt-hours / degree days)
Category	Environmental
Analysis objective for exception conditions	Determines which facilities have good or poor energy use. Uses time trend analysis to compare seasonal peaks, anomalies, or trends.
Description	Identifies normalized energy consumption that is based on building size and climate, which is measured in thousands of British thermal units (kBtu) per square foot per degree day.
Source	Customer Focus Group, EPA, Architecture 2030, EO 13423
Measurement	Total Energy Use / GSF / degree-day
Dependent data that is calculated	Degree day value is from the Building record.
