At BES, we provide structured Measurement and Verification (M&V) services that give building owners, operators, and project teams clear insight into energy performance and savings. Our process ensures the results of implemented energy conservation measures (ECMs) are measured accurately and reported transparently.

M&V plays a critical role in

  • validating energy savings

  • improving performance outcomes

  • supporting financial or regulatory requirements

Our services align with international M&V standards and apply to both new construction and retrofit projects.

What is Measurement and Verification?

Measurement and Verification is the process of collecting, analyzing, and reporting energy performance data to assess the impact of energy-saving measures. Because energy savings reflect the energy not used, they are calculated by measuring energy use before and after a project and adjusting for any changes that could affect the results.

An M&V plan typically includes:

  • metering and data logging,

  • baseline and post-implementation energy modeling,

  • calculation methods and adjustment factors, and

  • reporting protocols and verification standards.

This process confirms that upgrades deliver expected performance and ensure transparency throughout the project.

Why is M&V Important?

M&V services are a core part of any energy efficiency initiative and offer several key benefits:-

  • verifies return on investment to support financing

  • enables performance-based contracts and incentive validation

  • improves facility maintenance and operational insight

  • supports emissions reporting and sustainability targets

  • builds stakeholder trust through documented results

  • informs evaluations of broader programs or policies

When integrated early, M&V improves project decisions and long-term energy management.

HOW DOES IT WORK

BES follows a clear and collaborative process for M&V implementation

  1. Planning and Scope Definition
    We define objectives, measurement boundaries, and the most suitable protocol for your project.

  2. Baseline Development
    We gather energy data to develop a reliable baseline reflecting pre-implementation conditions.

  3. Data Collection and Monitoring
    Our team installs metering tools to collect real-time or interval data during the project.

  4. Analysis and Adjustments
    Data is analyzed and adjusted for external variables such as weather or occupancy changes.

  5. Savings Verification and Reporting
    A final report outlines verified savings, methodology, and recommendations for transparency.

Our team stays involved through all phases to ensure accuracy and consistency.
