WatchWire is a market-leading, energy and sustainability data management platform that uses cloud- based software to collect, automize, and analyze utility, energy, and sustainability data metrics. WatchWire streamlines, automates, and standardizes your sustainability reporting process by integrating directly and/or providing reporting exports to ENERGY STAR Portfolio Manager, LEED Arc, GRESB, CDP, SASB, GRI, and more. The platform provides customizable dashboards, which allow asset managers, sustainability managers, engineers, and more to monitor individual key performance indicators (KPIs) and create custom views for specific use cases. Managing Retail Sustainability Data Remote monitoring & diagnostics: detect and diagnose instances of energy waste and equipment faults in your portfolio with real-time monitoring Track Progress toward net zero & emissions reduction goals Comprehensively track sustainability metrics: energy consumption, emissions data & accounting, water use, waste generation, renewables, and more Easily comply with local laws, ordinances, and building codes for green buildings and emissions reductions targets Report on results with ease when data is consolidated and automatically audited for compliance M&V: Data also unlocks another essential process for portfolios investing in ESG: measurement and verification. M&V is a process for quantifying the precise impact on the energy use of a conservation measure. It puts numbers into a difficult-to-quantify process and makes it easy to calculate the economic impact of an investment. Compare building performance across your portfolio and against peers, and organize metrics based on geographic region, accounts, meters, and more The utilization of data capture and AI monitoring systems is crucial for the retail industry to achieve its sustainability measures and ESG goals. Incomplete or inaccurate data can result in ineffective actions and hinder progress in carbon reporting and reduction initiatives. This could also expose businesses to non-compliance with reporting regulations, waste time and resources, and make it challenging to prove their sustainability efforts, which can lead to allegations of greenwashing and hinder brand equity and customer attraction. It will be nearly impossible to comply with the SEC proposal in particular without using unifying technology and a platform that facilitates the collection of data, calculates the carbon metrics the SEC is asking for, and reports investor-grade data within multiple areas, ready for audit scrutiny. However, automated data capture and AI monitoring systems can track and analyze energy use, sustainability metrics, and efficiency projects in real time and at the meter level. This eliminates liability risk and productivity loss associated with older calculation and operation methods. Sustainability & Energy Management Simplified
