Claim One:
1. A method for analyzing energy consumption by physical infrastructure located in a network of geographically separated sites associated with a service-window-based enterprise in order to optimize utilization, the method comprising: generating, by an energy optimization device, an energy model for each of a plurality of sites in an enterprise network; determining, by the energy optimization device, a plurality of service windows within an established time period for each of the plurality of sites based on one or more threshold deviations identified in historical business data or historical energy consumption data; dynamically generating, by the energy optimization device, an energy consumption forecast for each of the determined service windows for each of the plurality of sites based on the generated energy models and obtained real-time operations data, and storing a mapping of the energy consumption forecasts to the determined service windows for each of the plurality of sites; obtaining, by the energy optimization device, current energy consumption data for one of the plurality of sites from one or more site computing devices located at each of the plurality of sites and via one or more communication networks; determining, by the energy optimization device, and outputting via a graphical dashboard interface, one or more optimization recommendations for the one of the plurality of sites based on a deviation of the obtained current energy consumption data for the one of the plurality of sites from the generated energy consumption forecast mapped to one or more active ones of the determined service windows for the one of the plurality of sites; and repeating, by the energy optimization device, the obtaining, determining optimization recommendations, and outputting for one or more other of the plurality of sites.
