Metered at the Switchboard

A Car-Level Energy Audit of a Demand-Responsive Lift-Dispatch Algorithm's Building-Wide Savings Claim

A car-level energy audit of a demand-responsive lift-dispatch controller finds Facilities' Living Dashboard's 13.4% electricity-saving claim accurate at the building level but concentrated entirely in two of the tower's four lift cars, with the other two cars' passengers absorbing a measurable rise in wait time instead.
