Training
There are two main types of trainings we do here at Abraxas Energy Consulting: Metrix training, and Energy Auditor training. For the Metrix training, there are two flavors -- either "Introductory" or "Advanced," depending on your current skill level, each of which being 2 days long. The Energy Auditor training, also 2 days long, is for people looking to become energy auditors, or for current energy auditors looking to learn from our many years of experience. Our trainings are regularly held regionally, but we can also come to your facility to perform an on-site training. Click here or on the image above to view our regional training schedule.
Energy Auditor Training
Have you considering getting into the energy auditing business, either commercial or residential? You're not alone. There's a overflow of new energy auditors out there with little to no skill, and the majority of the trainings available offer no real-world training experience. We're here to stop that. Our training is guaranteed to teach you the skills you need for energy auditing, whether you're a newbie or a hardened veteran.
Metrix Introductory Training
We provide a two-day training session for new Metrix users. The session is primarily "hands-on" -- trainees are guided step-by-step through typical project set-up, entering data such as meter information, rate tariffs, sub-meters, as well as establishing baselines, correcting for weather, and communicating these results using the reporting capabilities.
Metrix Advanced Training
The session begins with a review of basic concepts such as meter set-up; entering bill and variable data; tuning; measures and modifications; rate analysis and modeling. The session then continues with advanced measures; retrofit isolation vs main meter methods; advanced tuning, modifications and modeling; report customization. Case studies will be worked on as well as discussion of "real-life" Metrix applications.
