  title = {Trends in Energy Management Technology - Part 3: State of Practice of Energy Management, Control, and Information Systems},
  abstract = {<p>In this report, the third in a series, we provide an evaluation of several products that exemplify the current state of practice of Energy Management, Control, and Information Systems (EMCIS).  The available features for these products are summarized and analyzed with regard to emerging trends in EMCIS and potential benefits to the federal sector. The first report covered enabling technologies for emerging energy management systems.  The second report serves as a basic reference for building control system (BCS) networking fundamentals and includes an assessment of current approaches to open communications.  Part 4 of this series will discuss applications software from a users perspective. It is important for energy managers in the Federal sector to have a high level of knowledge and understanding of these complex energy management systems. This series of reports provides energy practitioners with some basic informational and educational tools to help make decisions relative to energy management systems design, specification, procurement, and energy savings potential.</p>},
