Plan and execute performance assurance and savings verification activities for assigned projects
Collect field data, either on-site, remotely, or using other NORESCO resources and use that data to prepare monthly, quarterly and annual M&V reports as required for each project
With support from their manager create project and energy conservation measure (ECM) specific M&V approaches with Project Development teams based on customer requirements and scope of project
Ensure those approaches are translated and captured in a detailed and clearly defined M&V plan
Plan development may also include baseline measurement and data collection plans and development of subcontractor scopes of work for M&V activities
Support M&V budget development and resource forecasting for M&V activities on assigned projects during project development, construction, and throughout the performance period
Assist with calculating energy savings in accordance with the M&V plan, including: Developing new and updating existing energy simulation models using methods which may include Excel bin model analysis, eQuest and/or EnergyPro tools
Development of energy savings analysis tools for data from loggers, data acquisition systems (i.e. solar PV), cogeneration historians and building management systems (BMS) data using Python FEMP/IPMVP Option B and Option C verification methods
Evaluating actual and contractual utility rates
Track changes to customer facilities that may affect the performance of installed ECMs
Monitor and evaluate ECM performance remotely and on site; including data collection, review of metered data, utility bills, and BMS data
Diagnose HVAC and building system performance issues using cross functional support from other NORESCO departments as well as with internally developed trend analytic charting tools
Coordinate and review results of on-site inspections and O&M record reviews to verify performance and ongoing operation and maintenance practices for ECMs installed by NORESCO
Participate in customer meetings to present findings from the ongoing M&V activities and reporting
Work with other NORESCO departments and customers to resolve ECM performance and reporting issues
Perform quality control reviews for peer written customer deliverables (i.e. M&V reports)
