The Availability & Affordability of SMB Energy Management
It’s hard to find a business or organization that would tell you they’re not interested in Energy Management. This doesn’t mean that every business and organization invests in energy management. When it comes to energy management there is a perception that it is expensive and generally something that small and medium businesses (SMB) can’t afford. This simply isn’t true, and SMBs who think this are missing out on the savings an energy management system can produce.
An article on AutomatedBuildings.com sites what generally comes to mind when SMBs think of energy management and why they can’t afford an energy management solution. This list includes:
- Rewiring of Buildings
- Complex Controller Systems
- Historical Protocol & Standards Support
In addition to the items listed above, many organizations think they’ll need to upgrade all of their existing lighting and HVAC systems. The truth is SMBs can reduce energy costs and practice efficient energy management without replacing any of their existing systems.
At PeopleCube we offer energy management solutions that can be delivered through SaaS or Software-as-a-Service. SaaS allows the SMB energy management customer to skip out on a large upfront payment and pay lower monthly fees to use the software and ultimately see the ROI of energy management much faster.
Our Energy Management software solutions will integrate with your existing building systems to not only monitor your energy consumption, but also control the energy consumption of rooms and resources so that they are powered in a more efficient manner. Our solutions also provide trending data that allows you to identify trends in how energy is being consumed and rooms and resources are being used so that your organization can alter their habits to reduce energy consumption.
Energy management for an organization doesn’t mean you need to replace your existing building systems. Savings lie in increasing the efficiency in how you manage your existing systems to reduce costs.

ESTA Conference Highlights Importance of Energy Management In The UK
Last Thursday, February 23, The UK’s leading energy management industry body- the Energy Services and Technology Association (ESTA)- held their 10th annual conference in Coventry.
A highlighted theme at the conference was the importance of investing in energy management technology to take control of energy consumption inside an organization or building.
Alan Aldridge , executive director of ESTA, said, “While automatic aM&T is well-embedded as a key energy management tool, it is still a young and developing technology. It’s continually finding new applications and innovative ways to help energy and facilities managers save money, control emissions and cut consumption.”
Energy management tools can make a significant dent in your energy consumption and costs. These tools monitor energy consumption and manage systems across your organization and real estate. This allows you to identify usage trends and the energy consumption associated with the utilization of rooms and resources. Energy management systems also allow organizations to control energy consumption based on occupancy and scheduling of rooms and resources.

Potential For $1.4 Trillion In Energy Savings Across U.S. Buildings
In the United States there are 120 Million buildings. Those 120 Million buildings are responsible for 42% of the nation’s primary energy consumption, 72% of the nation’s electricity, and 34% of the natural gas that is used across the country. These buildings use more energy than every nation in the world with the exception of the United States and China.
Looking at all the buildings across the United States there is a potential of roughly $1.4 Trillion in savings that can be produced through greater energy efficiency and better energy management.
The truth is energy costs can be reduced by up to 40% by simply by monitoring and controlling how – and when – their energy is consumed. Beyond the savings strictly associated with energy costs and consumption businesses and organizations can further benefit from reducing their energy consumption by taking advantage of different government incentives around reducing energy consumption.
