Abstract:
Presented are methods and systems to universally assess composite utility consumption ( 1 ) in which a plurality of real-time and batch sensor readings such as from multiple disparate utility sensor data inputs ( 3 ) may be acquired and stored such as into a local device ( 2 ) or a central data warehouse ( 6 ). A composite utility estimated cost generator ( 9 ) can generate missing or uncorrelated data and a collected composite utility data information correlator ( 11 ) can correlate the data so it can be applied to determine some type of composite utility cost information. For real-time calculation, a disparate utility rate information accessor ( 8 ) can obtain multiple items of disparate rate information and this can use with correlated data to create a composite utility consumption and spend so a user can manage and control utility usage for a home, building, facility, plant, specific equipment, or the like. Cost information, such as a rate of spend or spend amount(s) to date or for a period may be presented to user in a variety of visualizations and reporting formats including specific time usage and spend information, specific time range usage and spend, and “time-of-use” billing information for specific real-time data points. The visualization and reporting may be used to answer a plurality of usage questions along with specific characterizations of utility spend across time of day domains and specific equipment usage domains thus affording more effective utility cost management.

Claim (Index 2):
A system to universally assess composite utility consumption as described in  claim 1  and further comprising:\n an abnormal cost occurrence identifier; and \n an abnormal cost occurrence user notification display responsive to said abnormal cost occurrence identifier.
