Cost Avoidance Reports
The Report Manager manages lists of available reports (Installed, Saved, Report Batches, Public Reports, and Report Email Groups), including a category of Cost Avoidance Reports.
To open the Report Manager, click the Reporting tab from the Navigation Bar and select the Reports or Web Reports icon.
To view the list of available Cost Avoidance reports, click the Cost Avoidance Reports folder from the Installed Reports folder. The report list will be displayed in the right-hand pane of the Report Manager. You can select and view the desired report in the same manner as the other available reports.
The table below provides a brief description of available Cost Avoidance reports.
| REPORT ID | REPORT TITLE | REPORT DESCRIPTION |
| CAP01B | Cost Avoidance Summary By Building | Summarizes actual cost, cost without CAP, cost avoidance dollars and cost avoidance % by building. Cost without CAP is the projected cost without an energy management program (what you would have spent without a “cost avoidance program”) and is derived by adjusting the base year up to today’s conditions of weather, billing period length, and unit cost. Cost avoidance is the difference between actual cost and projected cost. |
| CAP01C | Cost Avoidance Summary By Commodity | Summarizes actual cost, cost without CAP, cost avoidance dollars and cost avoidance % by commodity. |
| CAP01E | Cost Avoidance Summary By Meter | Summarizes actual cost, cost without CAP, cost avoidance dollars and cost avoidance % by meter. |
| CAP02 | Energy Report Card | A concise building-by-building report by commodity that helps to quickly identify cost avoidance performance by building and commodity. |
| CAP05 | Meter Adjustment Settings | Documents various cost avoidance control settings of each meter. |
| CAP06 | Baseline Report | Calculates weather load factor for baseline year. Includes heating and cooling degree day data by meter with R-squared values. |
| CAP07 | Executive Summary | Summary of use and cost by place. Includes baseline, adjusted baseline, and current values, as well as the Cost Avoidance percentage and dollar amounts. |
| CAP08 | Cost Avoidance Exceptions | Use this report to spot bills that have exceptional cost avoidance values. Example: List all bills that have negative cost avoidance (i.e. a loss vs. the base year). Includes monthly cost, cost avoidance and cost avoidance percentage for each meter. |
| CAP09 | CAP Manual Adjustments | Lists single-month manual cost avoidance adjustments created from the Savings Detail screen (Cost Avoidance – Savings, Savings Tab, click on a month, click Manual Adjust). |
| CAP10 | Detailed Meter CAP Analysis | A detailed meter-by-meter report that lists each bill in the savings period (after the savings start date) and shows actual and cost avoidance values. |
| CAP11 | Meter Special Adjustments List | Lists adjustments to cost avoidance created from Meter Properties, CAP Adjust tab. These are continuous or recurring adjustments to the baseline due to facility, schedule or pricing changes that affect cost avoidance calculations. |
| CAP13 | Savings in Period | A summary by building, by commodity, that shows projected cost and use without energy management (the “without CAP” values), the actual values and the resulting avoidance values. |
| CAP14 | Issues Report | Lists Issues that have been created from the Create Issue button of the bill entry screen or from Cost Avoidance – Issue Tracker. |
