Energy Performance Indicator (EPI)

An Energy Performance Indicator (EPI) is a numerical measure that assesses how efficiently a building uses energy. It compares the amount of energy consumed to key factors like the building's size, usage, or occupancy, helping to identify whether a building is performing well or needs improvement. EPIs are useful for building managers and owners to monitor energy consumption trends over time, set energy-saving goals, and track the effectiveness of energy conservation measures. Essentially, an EPI provides a clear, objective way to evaluate and improve a building’s energy efficiency.
