Selection Guide
Data Dashboarding
Multiple dashboarding options depending on your current SCADA infrastructure. Energy metering data can integrate with existing Rockwell, Siemens, or Schneider systems, or we can provide a new frontend via the Tridium Niagara JACE 9000. An expansive and intuitive energy monitoring dashboard simplifies data retrieval and provides intuitive user access to collected data.
Why it matters
The right dashboarding solution transforms raw meter data into actionable insights for energy management, cost allocation, and compliance reporting. An intuitive dashboard simplifies data retrieval and provides building operations personnel with the tools to monitor consumption patterns, identify anomalies, and make data-driven decisions. Without proper dashboarding, metering data remains inaccessible and underutilized.
Key selection factors
- Existing SCADA/BMS infrastructure and protocols
- Real-time monitoring vs. interval-based reporting needs
- Number of data points and meters across the facility
- User access requirements and role-based permissions
- Reporting formats for compliance (LEED, Energy Star, ASHRAE) — hourly, daily, monthly, annual graphical views
- Data retention requirements (36+ months for code compliance)
Recommended approach
Integrate into existing Rockwell/Siemens/Schneider SCADA when in place; otherwise deploy a Niagara JACE 9000 frontend with role-based operator, executive, and tenant views.
