/EINPresswire.com/ Minneapolis, MN December 6, 2010 – Dr. Abtar Singh, vice president of business development for Verisae, will present at the upcoming World Energy Engineering Congress (WEEC) on how sustainability software can enable a 15 to 20 percent reduction in operating costs. The presentation will be on December 9, 2010 in Washington, D.C.
“I look at sustainability as a journey. Depending on the level of data being collected and the amount of actionable intelligence being derived, organizations can craw, walk, or run toward sustainability,” said Dr. Singh. “Organizations that are serious about improving the sustainability of their operations should look for a solution that manages their energy consumption down to an asset level and ultimately provides them with a substantial return on investment.”
As part of the presentation, Dr. Singh will discuss how the depth of data collection impacts an organization’s ability to optimally manage resource consumption. Organizations that are merely starting to look at energy and equipment data can keep track of metrics through spreadsheets while those that want to attain real-time energy management must be tracking granular level data.
Now in its 33rd year, the WEEC is one of the top national energy events for energy managers and professionals. The event strives to be a comprehensive forum where attendees can learn about economic and market forces, new technologies, regulatory development, and industry trends. The event organizers chose speakers that could present on current topics and the market’s most promising new technologies. Verisae’s Dr. Singh is a featured speaker and his presentation for the congress is titled a “Software Platform Approach to Sustainability.”
