July 1, 2005 — Itron Inc. has won a contract with Clemson University in South Carolina to provide Itron’s Enterprise Energy Management(TM) (EEM) software solutions to help the university reduce energy costs and improve conservation.
Itron’s EEM Suite of energy management software will help Clemson’s facility management team by providing detailed visibility into energy consumption for buildings and facilities throughout the campus, along with easy-to-use software tools to improve energy billing, facility management and energy procurement, says Itron.
Clemson University is one of a growing number of universities that has implemented its own meter data collection and software system from Itron to gain better visibility into usage of energy and water resources across campus, Itron says.
Clemson University buildings are owned and operated by the state, and university officials must report energy consumption building by building. The university used to record each of its 900 meters on campus manually, but Itron technology now automates part of that process, and eliminates paper orders, which further eliminates errors and estimations.
Nearly 3,000 utilities worldwide rely on Itron’s award-winning technology to provide the knowledge they require to optimize the delivery and use of energy and water. For more information, visit the Itron Web site.
