What an investment-grade audit includes

Level 3 audits go far beyond walkthroughs. They require engineering rigor, transparent assumptions, and documentation that holds up under financial and technical scrutiny.

  • Detailed site survey and equipment inventory
  • Calibrated hourly or monthly energy model
  • Capital-level ECM analysis with interactive effects
  • Lifecycle cost analysis (NPV, IRR, SIR, simple payback)
  • Risk, uncertainty, and sensitivity review
  • IPMVP-aligned M&V plan per measure
  • PE review and e-signature gate

How Edinergy compresses the timeline

Automated data ingestion

Bills, interval data, nameplates, and drawings are parsed into a structured building record.

Calibrated modeling

Agents build and tune models against utility bills until Guideline 14 thresholds are met.

Draft to review

Report sections, measure cards, and M&V plans are drafted for engineer review and PE sign-off.

Investment-grade audit FAQs

What is an investment-grade energy audit?+
An investment-grade audit, often ASHRAE Level 3, provides rigorous engineering analysis of capital-intensive energy conservation measures. It is used to justify major capital projects and secure financing or incentives.
What makes an audit investment-grade?+
Investment-grade audits include detailed site measurements, calibrated energy modeling, interactive-effects analysis, accurate cost and savings estimates, risk assessment, and measurement and verification plans.
How does Edinergy support Level 3 audits?+
Edinergy automates data ingestion, baseline regression, model calibration, ECM pricing, stacked-scenario analysis, M&V plan drafting, and report assembly — all gated by engineer and PE review.
Is an investment-grade audit required for utility incentives?+
Many utility and government incentive programs require investment-grade analysis to qualify for rebates, tax deductions, or financing. Requirements vary by jurisdiction and program.
