View, compare and contrast energy performance improvements and progress achieved over define time periods (i.e. compare performance on a monthly/ quarterly basis)
Interactive PCDB (boiler database) lookup to increase accuracy of heating efficiency
Provides a full historical audit trail of all changes
Import new build property ratings to share with Intelligent Energy
Retrieve low level EPC data directly from Elmhurst and legacy NHER
Seamless integration & synchronisation with Intelligent Energy for energy ratings and data sharing
Detects which underlying property energy data has changed and shares with Intelligent Energy
Allows customers to define, maintain and share other key decision support data and feed into Intelligent Energy for analysis and modelling purposes as ‘Custom Attributes’
Stores energy ratings for analysis and reporting with Carbon Hub
Automatic integration of ‘changed energy data’ into Intelligent Energy

Import asset and address details from spreadsheets
Import organisational hierarchies from spreadsheets to support alternative business views
Import newly collected energy data from spreadsheets
Import bulk/work completion updates from spreadsheets

Supports more than 50 standard energy and asset reporting outputs
Integrates and downloads reports directly into MS Excel with automatic pivot tables
Supports regular report scheduling to Carbon Hub users and external users

Uses intelligent inferences
Uses national calculation methodology RdSAP
Carbon emissions, SAP ratings & running cost
Data Quality Indicator
Energy Efficiency recommendations
Calculations per seconds – (16/second)
Enhanced security which utilises an updated authorisation framework SAP 10 compliant

View filtered properties on a map
View filtered properties as a table
Export filtered data as CSV
Upload custom attributes to filter on unique non-energy attributes
Modify the carbon factor to see how your stock reacts to the decarbonisation of the grid

Set SAP rating or EPC band target (cost based)
Set carbon reduction target (zero carbon or% reduction) Apply targets to whole stock or a subset
Assess impact of target on resident’s running cost
Assess precision of targets to view any overspend
Include measure variants (e.g. PV lkWp, 2.SkWp, 4kWp) Include non-EPC measures (e.g. remove secondary heating)
Model with current or predicted carbon emission factors Select which specific improvement measures to use Provides no regrets/fabric first improvement analysis

View total plan capital costs & av. capital cost per property
Breakdown of cost per target unit improvement
Identify capital cost overspend from exceeding target
Capital costs use RdSAP outputs e.g. wall area for accuracy
Tailored capital costs from industry data e.g. BEIS, EST
Download a CSV of your plan’s data to model your own capital costs
Assess capital cost savings achieved from deviating from standard EPC recommendation methodology

EPC measures applied in order of cost effectiveness
Includes variants of measures giving improvement options
Auto selects most cost-effective variant of each improvement
“Alternative EPC measures” evaluated (e.g. heat pumps)
Remove EPC restrictions on measures
Uses BRE product characteristics database
View improvement plans by property or by measure
Sort by any column on screen to understand priority
Cross reference results against the data quality indicator
Download a CSV of your plan’s data to enable further analysis
View impact on SAP/El scores, carbon emissions after improvements
Space heating demand before and after improvements
Ability to filter on custom attributes to only focus improvements on specific properties Can modify the specification and selection of measures in each plan
Modify the carbon factor to see how your stock reacts to the decarbonisation of the grid
