An Energy Forecasting and Analysis System for the U.S. Army Materiel Command
Abstract
The Army has been assigned energy reduction goals with a base year of FY85 and a target year of FY95. In the interim, energy managers are required to assess the effectiveness of energy conservation efforts in terms of progress toward attaining these goals. Direct comparison of current and base fiscal year energy consumption data is not a satisfactory method for evaluating energy conservation measures, as the effectiveness of these efforts may easily appear enhanced or diminished due to differences in weather and level of production between the current and base fiscal years. For a realistic assessment, energy managers need a mathematically sound methodology to filter out the effects caused by year-to-year differences in weather and production levels.
