INTRODUCTION
Recently, we conducted a poll that yielded a revealing insight: Approximately 33% of
poll participants said their organization is just starting to establish a sustainability
program.
At WatchWire, we know that the world of sustainability and energy management can
feel daunting, especially for organizations that are just getting into the space. We
also know that sustainability journeys don't happen in a vacuum. They involve getting
familiar with concepts like peak load, Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions, demand response
programs, heating and cooling degree days, and much more.
We've put together this Sustainability and Energy Glossary to help familiarize you with
all the relevant terms you need to know before you begin your sustainability and
energy management journey. As an added resource, we've included links under some
definitions to our related e-Books, webinars, and articles.
We hope you find this glossary informative and useful. If you have any questions or
comments or need clarification on a definition, you can reach us any time on LinkedIn
or Twitter.
