Streamlines utility billing and cost allocation<br />
processes, while greatly improving the reliability and<br />
accuracy of information. EBS (eDNA Billing System) was<br />
designed to meet the complex utility accounting and<br />
reporting needs of a large organization with 100s or 1,000s of buildings and accounts often spread across<br />
multiple campus locations. EBS uses a highly flexible cost allocation structure ensuring direct access to<br />
meter, account, building, and defined group cost and consumption information.<br />
EBS can be integrated with existing business systems and automated meter reading/data collection<br />
devices, or the system can be operated as a stand-alone solution. All utilities can be accounted for, including<br />
electricity, water, metered gas, bulk gas, chilled water, fuel oil and steam. EBS also interfaces to eDNA,<br />
InStep is real-time data historian. With eDNA, EBS becomes the Energy Efficiency Management (EEM)<br />
system. eDNA collects all meter information and other pertinent energy management data through the<br />
building control systems.<br />
