RETScreen® Expert at a Glance

RETScreen® Expert is an energy management and performance analysis software platform developed to support energy benchmarking, utility analysis, greenhouse gas tracking, feasibility analysis, and measurement and verification (M&V).

The platform helps organizations better understand how buildings are performing over time by combining utility data, weather normalization, operational trends, and energy savings analysis into a centralized reporting environment.

Energy@Work uses RETScreen® Expert to support ongoing building performance reviews, identify operational trends, track utility consumption, and communicate performance insights in a clear and practical way.

EXPERIENCE

The RETScreen® Expert software is integrated into Energy@Work's core services: Our Energy Management Action Plans (E-MAP), Existing Building Commissioning (EBCX) and most recently our Virtual E-MAP!

RETScreen analysis uses utility data, BAS review, site knowledge, and regular client engagement, to support building team’s ability to understand performance trends, identify opportunities, implement positive change, and effectively communicate results.

The platform also supports a consistent approach to tracking, analyzing, and communicating building performance across client portfolios, including EBCx, utility incentive programs, EWRB reporting, and ongoing energy management initiatives.

 

1990s | Foundations in Corporate Energy Management

Energy@Work’s roots began through one of Ontario’s early large-scale corporate energy management initiatives at Ontario Hydro.

Mid-1990s | Proven Performance Tracking Approaches

Internal energy efficiency programs exceeded targets and helped establish practical methods for energy reporting, measurement, and operational improvement.

Early 2000s | Energy@Work is Established

The organization was created to bring practical energy management expertise to commercial, institutional, and multi-residential sectors.

Today | RETScreen® Expert Integrated Across Core Services
