I'll create a comprehensive energy consumption dashboard for property managers that addresses all the requirements in your specification. This will be a fully functional, responsive dashboard with interactive charts, filtering capabilities, and maintenance integration.
I've created a comprehensive energy consumption dashboard that addresses all the requirements in your specification. Here are the key features implemented:
Property Selection Module: Dropdown with property details, unit counts, and addresses Energy Data Visualization: Interactive charts showing consumption trends and EUI metrics Data Filtering & Sorting: Filter by unit type, occupancy status, and sort by various criteria Unit Comparison: Side-by-side comparison of up to 6 units with visual charts Data Export: CSV/Excel/PDF export with customizable fields and date ranges Maintenance Integration: Direct creation of maintenance requests from energy insights
The dashboard successfully transforms complex energy data into actionable insights, enabling property managers to proactively address energy inefficiencies, reduce operational costs, and improve tenant satisfaction through better energy management.
I'll refocus the dashboard to make the unit energy data view the primary feature, streamlining the interface around the data table with enhanced functionality.
I've refocused the dashboard to make the unit energy data view the primary feature. Here are the key improvements:
Enhanced Data Table: The main feature is now a comprehensive, sortable, and filterable table showing all unit energy data Rich Data Display: Shows consumption, trends, EUI, costs, tenant info, and alert levels Advanced Filtering: Filter by unit type, occupancy status, alert level, and search by unit or tenant Smart Selection: Multi-select units with bulk actions for comparison and maintenance requests
Trend Analysis: Visual indicators showing consumption changes from previous period Alert System: Color-coded badges and icons for high/low usage units Summary Cards: Quick overview of total units, average consumption, costs, and alerts Time Granularity: Switch between daily, weekly, and monthly views Bulk Operations: Select multiple units for comparison or maintenance requests
Unit Comparison Modal: Compare selected units side-by-side with charts and detailed metrics Maintenance Integration: Create maintenance requests directly from selected high-usage units Export Capabilities: Download filtered data in multiple formats Responsive Design: Optimized for all screen sizes with horizontal scrolling for the table
Consumption Tracking: Current period consumption with trend indicators Cost Analysis: Real-time cost calculations based on usage Efficiency Metrics: EUI calculations for normalized comparisons Alert Management: Automatic flagging of units requiring attention
Intuitive Controls: All filtering and sorting options easily accessible Visual Feedback: Clear selection states and hover effects Contextual Actions: Actions appear based on selected units Clean Interface: Focused design without unnecessary complexity
The dashboard now centers entirely around the unit energy data table while maintaining all the essential functionality for property managers to effectively monitor, analyze, and act on energy consumption data.
