Read the result in context.
The project account estimates annual savings of $28,371. The result followed a refrigeration system replacement and controls work, so treat it as a system-upgrade result rather than a forecast for monitoring alone.
Figures come from the original project account, which does not include the full baseline or measurement method.
What this means for your next project.
Start with your existing equipment and a defined goal. Agree on the baseline and separate the effects of equipment replacement, controls changes and ongoing monitoring when evaluating results.
