M&V Plans in IPMVP Volume I
M&V Plans in IPMVP Volume I

The case studies are taken from the IPMVP Vol I, 2009 Appendix A, which present a variety of project types and discusses the key M&V design issues arising from the described situations. Each example shows just one IPMVP adherent M&V design, though there are numerous possible designs for any project. 

These examples go into varying levels of depth, in order to highlight different features of common M&V approaches. None of them is comprehensive. Readers are referred to the EVO subscribers’ website for more complete M&V Plans and sample savings reports (www.evo-world.org). Also IPMVP Volume III contains example M&V applications for new buildings and renewable-energy projects.  EVO subscribers are encouraged to submit their own examples for possible inclusion in the website’s library (email to: This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
