What is a community?
• Examples
– Your municipality
– Students in a school
– School districts
– Your neighborhood
– Your social club
– Your facebook friends
• Your Peers
– Close enough for you to care how you compare

IT Tool Integration and the Customer Relationship
ESTABLISH PROFILE: marketing, benchmarking campaign, online audit, schedule energy assessment
DIAGNOSTIC AUDIT AND RETROFIT: select pre-qualified auditor/contractor
• Get financing approval; learn about applicable rebates and incentives
• Data download to pre-populate audit fields
• Project quality assurance/measurement and verification reports
CUSTOMER MEMBERSHIP IN LEAP
• Members Rewards – tiered approach for product and service discounts tied to user defined goals, contests, and M&V of savings
• Behavior /HEMS – continued opportunities for energy savings
EFFICIENCY DIVIDENDS: carbon offsets, white tags, aggregating community gains for forward capacity market
• Low cost maintenance and commissioning
• Energy Savings Account (“e-cashback” through the EE Utility)
NEXT WAVE: Additional retrofit measures, renewables

TQM Systems Integration with the Community Retrofit Process
Do: Implement retrofit or change in
operations
Study: Input actual energy use and test predictions
Adjust: Adjust ongoing activities based on findings
Plan: Predict post retrofit performance
• Total Quality Management
• How does this building use energy?
• How does the energy use of this building compare to others?
• What renovations would save the most energy?
• How much energy was actually saved? How did that compare to the predicted savings?

Peer Comparison ReportTotal Energy comparison
yields first level analysis.
But comparison of end use shows that totals were masking
a heating improvement opportunity.

Quality Assurance and Contractor Comparisons
• Use of peer comparisons can help identify poorly performing contractors or be used as part of contests.
• Data from multiple audit tools feeds to field data collection tool for comparison to QA inspection results.
