Enertiv is a sustainability platform for commercial real estate portfolios, with tools for reporting, decarbonization, and energy efficiency. Its Energy & ESG module handles utility bill intake and quality checks, portfolio benchmarking, and reporting for regulatory and investor requirements. Tenant utility data can be gathered through a portal, shadow metering, or mobile meter reads with quality checks. Reporting connects with Energy Star Portfolio Manager and exports formatted data for GRESB, SFDR, CSRD, and TCFD. Carbon Planning uses equipment details collected in on-site surveys to generate AI-powered operating and capital expenditure recommendations. For building performance and maintenance, Enertiv can connect to an existing building management system or install monitoring devices; work orders can be linked to equipment alerts and runtime-based preventive schedules. Yardi and MRI integrations sync tenant and billing information. Customers can access platform data through the interface or RESTful API, and Enertiv says it stores data indefinitely. The free portfolio diagnostic uses read-only ESPM data; paid module pricing is available on request.
