• 2 Years of Energy in DCC = 20,000+ bills.
• If a person spent 15 minutes analysing each bill = 625 days (@ 8 hours per day).
• EnergyElephant performs the same analysis in under a day (for most large users).
ENERGY MANAGEMENT
Results

HOW TO MAINSTREAM THIS? DEMONSTRATE THE COST BENEFITS
How to accurately measure and monitor flows across the region?As a region transport planners have little data to understand traffic flows and behaviours. including within the canal cordon area. We do not have up to date data or real time data on movement across strategic areas across the city region.

Less about TECH more about PEOPLE and CULTURE and CHANGE
Growing the skills internally a big challenge / PARTNERSHIPS ARE KEY
Breaking down siloes / Common standards / Better Procurement…
