Term	Term Definition	Options	Unit of Measure
Age	Age of premises or equipment in years.	View	years
Air handling unit		View	None
Automated system optimization	ASO analytics continuously analyzes and modifies Building Automation System control settings to optimize heating, ventilation and air conditioning system energy use while maintaining occupant comfort. It reads data from the BAS and automatically sends optimal setpoints back to the BAS to adjust the control parameters based on data such as submetered energy use and energy price signal.	View	None

Electric lighting	Primary lighting source is electric.	View	None
EMIS Feature	Features of an Energy Management and Information System	View	None
Energy consumption and costs visualization	Track and provide views of the meter points on a sub hourly (e.g., 15-minute) basis. Provide visualizations of real-time (and historic) energy consumption and costs.	View	None
Energy information system functionality	EIS analytics focus on meter-level monitoring, analysis, and charting (hourly or more frequent consumption data, at the whole building or submeter level). Advanced EIS analytics incorporate automated opportunity analysis that typically includes predictive energy models that identify energy use anomalies and measure project savings.	View	None
Energy information system key performance indicator tracking	Track KPIs for energy related metrics, such as equipment, system, or building level energy use intensity, greenhouse gas emissions.	View	None
Energy management and information systems	Combined hardware and software products that comprise a broad range of analytics functionality and services to manage commercial building energy use. Specific EMIS capabilities are listed under the EMIS Feature constrained list.	View	None
Energy performance analysis	Analyze interval energy data and provide actionable information. Common analysis includes time series load profiling, heat map visualization, benchmarking, baseline energy consumption modeling, and energy anomaly detection.	View	None
Energy reporting and data export	Provide a default or customized energy report. Allow users to export energy data.	View	None
Fan		View	None
Fancoil unit		View	None
Fault detection and diagnostics	FDD analytics automates the process of detecting faults and suboptimal performance of building systems and helps to diagnose potential causes. It focuses on system-level monitoring, analysis, and charting using Building Automation System data. Tools with FDD functionality pull data from the BAS, and may provide a report of the duration and frequency of faults, cost and/or energy impacts, and relative priority levels.	View	None
