Purchased Utility Database

A systemwide program to process and track utility bills

The university uses software called EnergyCAP to track utility use and expenses. The software was purchased in 2009 and contains historical utility billing data from 2008-2011. The university is currently in a campus implementation phase to enter, audit and pay live bills and to distribute usage and costs to campus buildings and accounts. UC San Francisco and UC San Diego are now using EnergyCAP to pay utility bills. UC Davis, UC Merced, UC Riverside, UC Berkeley, UC Santa Cruz and UC San Francisco Medical Center are in the process of implementation. UC Irvine and  UC Irvine Medical Center are expected to follow in late 2012,  with remaining campuses expected to begin the process in 2013.

The Purchased Utility Database is a Working Smarter initiative.
