BACKGROUND
PG&E has been delivering cost-effective Retro-commissioning (RCx) programs to larger commercial customers to help improve and optimize energy use.

FirstFuel’s Remote Building Analytics provide a breakthrough solution to make retro-commissioning cost-effective and scalable to a much broader range ofcustomers. Leveraging utility meter data, FirstFuel analytics work across the entire efficiency lifecycle to rapidly and cost-effectively expand RCx program reach. FirstFuel seamlessly integrates with Nexant’s services, which helps customers implement low/no-cost operational measures.
FirstFuel helps PG&E:
– Access hard-to-reach customer segments
– Identify new sources of operational savings
