Estimating energy savings with IPMVP

The International Performance Measurement and Verification Protocol (IPMVP) is a standardized method to calculate energy savings. It Isolates external variables so a site can measure savings performances year-over-year. It models the relationship with energy consumption and external factors to give you the actual usage after energy efficient technology is installed. GridPoint relies on the IPMVP protocol to give our customers the most accurate savings forecast possible.
