Many campuses either have significantly large facilities or numerous facilities. Every A&E firm will likely go with a favorite system. What this leaves is each facility has its own design, its own service arm and the clients has a number of proprietary systems which requires significant added cost in energy, services, and no predictive results.

Presentation Notes
MISO = Midcontinent Independent System Operators Legislated the separation of power generation & power transmission. So the transmitters have to purchase power from the generation companies. This creates a “stock market” of sorts for power. Grid operators on occasion will offer to pay largely increased rates per KW for periods of time when a power generator plant goes down. The trick is timeliness of response to the requests for generation. Alcoa aluminum smelting plant has a coal fired power plant with the capability to run the plant, or put power back on the grid. RoviSys wrote an analytics app that monitors the MISO site for these windows, notifies the plant manager of upcoming windows against the anticipated profit of manufacturing in that same time period, and allows the plant manager to place the order to generate to the grid. And sends notification to plant operations to shut down the necessary smelters to free up the necessary KW for sell to the grid. Technology is OSI PI with a custom HTML5 GUI for interface. Added over $1M of pure profit/year to the bottom line of this facility.
