Consequently, the IoT has become a popular phrase, so let’s take an architectural view of this IoT framework.
Talk to animation
Cadmus is a privately owned company established in 1983. We provide an array of energy and environmental consulting services.
We have more than 500 employees, located in 10 different offices around the country. More than 200 of those are dedicated professional energy efficiency program evaluators (the most of any firm) with the largest number of those—including all the members of this team--located here in the northwest.
Cadmus is a leader in EM&V methods:
We’ve contributed to every major EM&V protocol: multiple Impact Evaluation Guides—EPA, SEE Action, EPRI.
We are currently managing US DOE’s UMP, and our staff have co-authored the evaluation protocols for sampling, and for strategic energy management program evaluation
We have deep experience and knowledge of the NW. We’ve worked with every major utility in the NW and Washington state, as well as all the various regional entities (BPA, Council, RTF, NEEA).
We’ve worked with PSE in a number of areas:
LIWx/DC program evaluations;
supporting biennial IRPs; potential assessments
Past 3 years: ongoing sub metering installations to obtain true power measurements of various C&I high-voltage systems (motors, chillers, compressors, heating elements)
Fundamentally what IS HAPPENING is that the PHYSICAL and DIGITAL worlds - which we have always compartmentalized into SEPARATE REALITIES…
Are now CONVERGING into a single NEW REALITY, THINGS will never by the SAME
This NEW REALITY creates so many NEW POSSIBILITIES - so many NEW OPPORTUNITIES for INNOVATION
So much VALUE can be CREATED or UNLOCKED
But this is not a fixed reality – it is CLEAR to me is that notion of PHYSICAL/DIGITAL convergence will continue to EVOLVE…
Through our Platform and Solutions, PTC unlocks the value created by the convergence of the physical and digital worlds. This is PTC’s mission.
