Green Bu1on Privacy and Security • Data Security. – Standard Cer6ficate Based HTTPS and SFTP – Uses IETF OAuth2 authoriza6on – Requires 128 bit (Third Party) and 256 bit (Data Custodian) Transport Layer Security – Aligned with NIST best prac6ces • Personal Iden6fiable Informa6on (PII) – Cer6fied Green Bu1on Metered Data contains no PII – All Loca6on informa6on must be exchanged separately from Metered Data – Account and Porpolio informa6on must be exchanged separately from Metered Data – DOE is leading a Voluntary Code of Conduct Stakeholder Process

Both U6lity and Facility Data 28 U6lity Data Facility Data • Measurements of power, energy, gas, water, … • Quality: Raw, validated, es6mated, … • Source: Meter near real-­‐6me, u6lity back end, third party • Economics: Consumers need to know the cost of their consumed power (but we did not construct a pricing model) • Iden6fica6on: by customer, device, loca6on • Interval data • Summary Informa6on • Power Quality Metrics

  • 33. Value Proposi6ons Cost Effec6ve Improvements to Advanced Metering Infrastructure • U6lity did not charge addi6onal fees for Green Bu1on capabili6es • Offsets GSA’s capital expenditure to install addi6onal metering where u6lity interval data is available • Offsets O&M costs associated with maintaining meters • Compa6ble with agency metering systems • Green Bu1on can lower the cost of deployment for agency energy management
  • 34. Value Proposi6ons Data Quality/Data Valida6on/Data Scaling • 12% of GSA metering infrastructure is missing data due to meters being offline. Green Bu1on Data gives GSA the opportunity to replace this missing data with u6lity interval data from second (u6lity) source. • Green Bu1on Data can also be used to correct data anomalies in Energy Management Systems such as spikes, blanks, null values etc. • Green Bu1on encourages mul6ple vendors to present data to GSA in a uniform, interoperable manner.
  • 35. Lessons Learned Significant value achieved through ac6ve management • Virtual energy audit for all proper6es is possible • Data drives efficient management Interoperability is KEY • Look for Cer6fied Connect My Data implementa6ons in 2015 • Leverage your purchasing power to bring your service providers on-­‐board! Early in the Green Bu1on Connect My Data life cycle • Pepco/Schneider first in the na6on commercial deployment • Na6onal Rollout 2015-­‐2016 – plan for success now!
  • 36. What is Green Bu1on? – How is it useful to Federal Agencies? • Green Bu1on is a standard for data exchange inspired by the federal government and enabled by the private sector • The Green Bu1on carries the metered data that enables ac6ve management of resource usage • Green Bu1on provides a uniform way for energy managers to use metered data across mul6ple u6li6es to manage large porpolios • Agencies can save on their energy costs • Agencies can provide uniform data to Porpolio Manager • Agencies can leverage real, measured data to monitor and manage their energy and resource usage
  • 37. FAQ Development • How do I find out if my u6lity supports Green Bu1on Connect My Data? • Is a Smart (AMI) meter required for Green Bu1on Support? • How do I determine when in Facility Metering is jus6fied? • Is there a roadmap for agency support of Green Bu1on in their energy management processes? • Are agencies to be provided informa6on as to vendors whose products and services support Green Bu1on? • Do agencies have a sense as to how many of their facili6es are in services areas of u6li6es that support Green Bu1on? • What authority do agency managers have to ini6ate Green Bu1on energy management ac6vi6es? • How are larger facili6es such as campuses or bases to approach the Green Bu1on opportunity h.p://www.greenbu.ondata.org/fed-­‐faq/
