Abstract
A building management system includes building equipment, a metric generation system, and a visualization engine. The building equipment is configured to generate data samples. The metric generation system is configured to collect the data samples and generate key performance indicators. The visualization engine is configured to create a scorecard that displays the key performance indicators. The scorecard comprises a building energy overview widget that displays total consumption of a building, a consumption by space widget that displays consumption of a plurality of subspaces of the building, and a consumption by commodity widget that displays consumption of the building categorized by commodity. In some embodiments, the scorecard also includes an energy density by space widget that displays consumption per unit area per day for the subspaces of the building.
