Consumption Report: Adjustments
Adjustments: What are they?August Last Year Electric Usage: 400,000 kWhAugust This Year Electric Usage: 500,000 kWh
According to this, you used 25% more electricity than last year. Way
to be wasteful.
That’s not fair! We had a 30 day heat wave this year. My big wrench and I think
you should check those numbers again.
Adjustments figure out the energy used when:
Hotel needs to be cooled.
Hotel needs to be kept
warm.
There is a change in
occupancy.

Calculating Adjustments
5 year history of: Temperature Occupancy Usage
Adjustments: What are they?August Last Year Electric Usage: 400,000 kWhAugust Last Year Adjusted Usage: 490,000 kWhAugust This Year Electric Usage: 500,000 kWh
I crunched the numbers. Turns out if last year was as hot as this year the difference in your
electric usage is only 2%.
That sounds reasonable. We did forget to turn lights off in unused rooms. We’ll have to post reminders for everyone.

“Use less energy”? That doesn’t tell
me anything.
Increased gas usage was due to a leak. Peter’s going to arrange
for repairs. Good to know.
