The SMEmPower Monitoring, Targeting and Verification Tool

This paper presents the methodology and the implementation of the monitoring and targeting (M&T) and monitoring and verification (M&V) tools that were developed in the context of the SMEmPower Efficiency Horizon 2020 project. The tools were built to allow energy managers and energy experts of Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) to store and organize energy consumption and production measurements, identify increased energy readings, create scenarios of reduced energy consumption, and finally verify the efficiency of energy conservation measures. The tools were used during the three training rounds that were organized in eight countries by the SMEmPower Efficiency project partners. More specifically, they have been applied for the practical action of the trainees in order to perform energy evaluations or actualization of energy audits in pilot sites under real consumption and production data.
