Setting consumption targets for sites

Set consumption targets for the sites in your organization to track your monthly energy consumption.

To set a consumption target for a site:

1. In Energy Hub, go to Investigate and select the Asset view or Energy view.
2. In the organization tree, select the site that you want to create the target for.
3. In the information panel for the site, select the Alarm Settings tab. A list of existing alarm rules for this location displays.
4. On the alarm settings tab, select Add Alarm Rule. The Create new alarm rule panel displays.
5. In Create new alarm rule, in the Alarm Type section, under Energy Management, select the Energy Consumption alarm type. Select Next.
6. In Create new alarm rule, in the Setpoint section, select a monthly or yearly observation period.
7. Enter the target consumption for the site:
   1. For a monthly observation period, enter the target consumption for each month separately.
   2. For a yearly observation period, enter the target consumption for a year. Energy Hub will assign 1/12 of the yearly value to each month.
8. Enter an alarm setpoint and select an alarm priority. Select Next.

   NOTE: The alarm setpoint is a required setting for setting up the alarm, but it is not used for consumption tracking on the Home page.

9. In Create new alarm rule, in the General section, define a name for the new alarm rule.
10. (Optional) In Create new alarm rule, in the General section, disable the new alarm rule if you do not want it to take effect immediately.

    NOTE: You can enable or disable alarm rules at any time on the alarm settings tab in the information panel for the site.

11. Select Finish.
