January fuel bills went up 20% after retrofit.
The client wants their money back.
Simon’s retrofit kit saves fuel.
Guaranteed.
But January was brutal this year.
The client called:
“We spent more on fuel than before. Your system doesn’t work.”
Simon knew his system was running perfectly.
The client was right about spending more.
Both statements were true.
The missing piece?
Weather normalization.
January was 15% colder than average.
Without the retrofit, they would have spent 30% more.
But proving that usually takes forever.
Before: the M&V tax
- Data cleanup and weather data sourcing
- Regression setup with endless troubleshooting

- Client still don’t trust the calculations
Same procedure. Every project.
After: Ed automation
- Raw data upload: 30 seconds

Same accuracy.
No debugging.
