Performance Measurement & Verification (M&V)
Evidencing Energy Savings
A two day course for professionals who want to understand and apply the principles of good practice M&V, in particular their role in the successful governance and management of energy efficiency projects and performance contracts.
Course Overview
Measurement & Verification (M&V) provides a structure to evidence the savings delivered by energy efficiency projects and is an essential skill for today’s energy efficiency professionals.
Our two day course is suitable for energy and sustainability managers, consultants, estates and facilities managers who wish to expand their understanding of M&V principles, in particular the application of the IPMVP technical protocol.
The course focuses on the practical implementation of M&V for proving the impact of energy efficiency projects, showing how to separate the effect of a project from other drivers of energy use.
