Kraus-Manning Sustainable Solutions utilizes the International Performance Measurement and Verification Protocol (IPMVP) which is the leading international standard in M&V protocols established by the Efficiency Valuation Organization (EVO). The IPMVP provides an overview of current best practice techniques available for verifying results of energy efficiency, water efficiency, and renewable energy projects in commercial and industrial facilities.

Performing continuous metering and verification is a measurement approach that allows building owners and property managers to verify savings from any energy project already undertaken by measuring and comparing the performance of an old system against the new system’s results. This service is available as part of any performance package and is an essential consideration for building owners and operators who are concerned with truly measuring the improvements they make to their bottom line through energy efficiency. It also serves to further assess energy usage and allows us to provide recommendations for slight operational adjustments that will improve facility performance.
