Term	Term Definition	Options	Unit of Measure
Emissions Value	Emissions that result in gases that trap heat in the atmosphere.	View	Unknown
Emittance	The capacity of a material to emit radiant energy. The ratio of the radiant flux emitted by a physical surface to that emitted by a blackbody at the same temperature and under the same conditions. It can be expressed as 1-(long-wave infrared absorptance) for materials that are not transparent in the long-wave infrared spectrum. Emittance is a surface property; values range from 0.05 for brightly polished metals to 0.96 for flat black paint. The emittance for most materials is 0.9.	View	None

End point device	A device that functions as either an originator or destination for network traffic passed through Network Equipment. Examples of end point devices include computers, servers, set-top boxes, IP-capable televisions, IP phones, etc. For the purposes of this specification, an endpoint device is not considered network equipment.	View	None
End Use	Resource end use. This can also be used to qualify a renewable energy that is generated on-site that has its own dedicated meter. This can be applied at the premises or individual system or equipment level.	View	None

Energy Auditor	Contact information for the energy auditor.	View	None
Energy consultant	The energy consultant of record	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 conversion	The percentage of the energy to which the cell is exposed to (input resource) that is actually converted into effective energy (output resource) under standard testing conditions. For solar cells, this is calculated by dividing a cell's power output (in watts) at its maximum power point by the input light (in watts per square meter) and the surface area of the solar cell (in square meters).	View	None
Energy Cost Index	ECI is a generic term used for comparing the expected energy for anything from commercial office spaces, lighting, industrial air filtration, and even an entire home. ECI can be used to compare the impact on energy cost from a single device all the way up to complex systems. Calculated by dividing contributory Annual Energy Consumption Cost by the number of units affected by the device or system being measured.	View	None
Energy cycle draw	Resource drawn per average cycle of an appliance, such as washer, dryer, dishwasher, elevator, etc.	View	None
Energy Data Not Available		View	None
Energy distribution system	Energy or utility distribution system equipment.	View	None
Energy efficiency and renewable energy program incentive	Public purpose programs administered by utilities, state agencies, or other third parties and paid for by utility ratepayers, typically through a non-by-passable system benefits charge instituted as part of restructuring legislation or rules	View	None
Energy efficient ethernet	Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) is a technology which enables reduced power consumption of Ethernet interfaces during times of low data throughput. Specified by IEEE 802.3az.	View	None
Energy factor	A factor is used to compare the relative efficiency of water heaters, dishwashers, clothes washers, and clothes dryers. Energy Factor (EF) is the quotient of the capacity equipment divided by the sum of the equipment electrical energy for mechanical operation or standby, and the water heating energy. The units are volume (or weight) per energy per cycle. For dishwashers, the EF is the reciprocal of the sum of energy per cycle, and expressed in cycles per kWh. The higher the EF value means a more efficient equipment. It is the ENERGY STAR energy performance metric. This factor may vary based on equipment features such as water heating boosters or truncated cycles. The federal EnergyGuide label on equipment shows the annual energy consumption and cost, which use the energy factor. The EF does not appear on the EnergyGuide label. Unlike annual energy use, the EF does not take into account the estimated annual energy use in standby mode. The energy factor for a dehumidifier is calculated by dividing the water removed from the air by the energy consumed, measured in liters per kilowatt hour (L/kWh).	View	None
