C3 Energy Discusses Data Analytics for Commercial Energy Efficiency


REDWOOD CITY, Calif. --(Business Wire)--

C3 Energy Vice President of Strategy Rob Jenks, Ph.D., spoke Tuesday on the impact of big data on commercial energy efficiency at The American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy (ACEEE) Intelligent Efficiency Conference.

At C3 (News - Alert) Energy, Jenks shapes the products' value propositions and works with customers to define and capture that value. Prior to C3 Energy, he was a clean technology expert at McKinsey & Company (News - Alert), where he developed a deep expertise in energy-related topics including energy efficiency, renewable energy, and energy policy and regulation. He also helped to create the U.S. Low Carbon Economics Model, a tool that estimates the economic impact of new energy technologies and energy and climate policies.

Jenks joined representatives from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Pacific Gas & Electric, and Stanford University on the panel "Strengthening Whole Building Programs." The panl discussed how new advances in data analytics are rapidly changing the scope and viability of whole building approaches to energy efficiency programs.



"With advances in big data analytics and machine learning, commercial energy efficiency methods are transforming from engineering-driven methods to data-driven statistical approaches," said Jenks. "C3 Energy provides tools for large commercial and industrial enterprises to manage and analyze energy usage, benchmark facilities against industry standards, and engage with their utilities to unlock substantially more energy savings and economic value than traditional methods."

ACEEE's first Intelligent Efficiency Conference was held Nov. 16-18, 2014, in San Francisco.
